EXPLANATORY NOTE

This report combines the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2019 of Mack-Cali Realty Corporation and Mack-Cali Realty, L.P. Unless stated otherwise or the context otherwise requires, references to the “Operating Partnership” mean Mack-Cali Realty, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, and references to the “General Partner” mean Mack-Cali Realty Corporation, a Maryland corporation and real estate investment trust (“REIT”), and its subsidiaries, including the Operating Partnership. References to the “Company,” “we,” “us” and “our” mean collectively the General Partner, the Operating Partnership and those entities/subsidiaries consolidated by the General Partner.

The Operating Partnership conducts the business of providing leasing, management, acquisition, development, construction and tenant-related services for its General Partner. The Operating Partnership, through its operating divisions and subsidiaries, including the Mack-Cali property-owning partnerships and limited liability companies is the entity through which all of the General Partner’s operations are conducted. The General Partner is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership and has exclusive control of the Operating Partnership’s day-to-day management.

As of September 30, 2019, the General Partner owned an approximate 90.1 percent common unit interest in the Operating Partnership. The remaining approximate 9.9 percent common unit interest is owned by limited partners. The limited partners of the Operating Partnership are (1) persons who contributed their interests in properties to the Operating Partnership in exchange for common units (each, a “Common Unit”) or preferred units of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership or (2) recipients of long term incentive plan units of the Operating Partnership pursuant to the General Partner’s executive compensation plans.

A Common Unit of the Operating Partnership and a share of common stock of the General Partner (the “Common Stock”) have substantially the same economic characteristics in as much as they effectively share equally in the net income or loss of the Company. The General Partner owns a number of common units of the Operating Partnership equal to the number of issued and outstanding shares of the General Partner’s common stock. Common unitholders (other than the General Partner) have the right to redeem their Common Units, subject to certain restrictions under the Second Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of the Operating Partnership, as amended (the “Partnership Agreement”) and agreed upon at the time of issuance of the units that may restrict such right for a period of time, generally one year from issuance. The redemption is required to be satisfied in shares of Common Stock of the General Partner, cash, or a combination thereof, calculated as follows: one share of the General Partner’s Common Stock, or cash equal to the fair market value of a share of the General Partner’s Common Stock at the time of redemption, for each Common Unit. The General Partner, in its sole discretion, determines the form of redemption of Common Units (i.e., whether a common unitholder receives Common Stock of the General Partner, cash, or any combination thereof). If the General Partner elects to satisfy the redemption with shares of Common Stock of the General Partner as opposed to cash, the General Partner is obligated to issue shares of its Common Stock to the redeeming unitholder. Regardless of the rights described above, the common unitholders may not put their units for cash to the Company or the General Partner under any circumstances. With each such redemption, the General Partner’s percentage ownership in the Operating Partnership will increase. In addition, whenever the General Partner issues shares of its Common Stock other than to acquire Common Units, the General Partner must contribute any net proceeds it receives to the Operating Partnership and the Operating Partnership must issue to the General Partner an equivalent number of Common Units. This structure is commonly referred to as an umbrella partnership REIT, or UPREIT.

The Company believes that combining the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q of the General Partner and the Operating Partnership into this single report provides the following benefits:

enhance investors’ understanding of the General Partner and the Operating Partnership by enabling investors to view the business as a whole in the same manner as management views and operates the business of the Company;

eliminate duplicative disclosure and provide a more streamlined and readable presentation because a substantial portion of the disclosure applies to both the General Partner and the Operating Partnership; and

create time and cost efficiencies through the preparation of one combined report instead of two separate reports.

The Company believes it is important to understand the few differences between the General Partner and the Operating Partnership in the context of how they operate as a consolidated company. The financial results of the Operating Partnership are consolidated into the financial statements of the General Partner. The General Partner does not have any other significant assets, liabilities or operations, other than its interests in the Operating Partnership, nor does the Operating Partnership have employees of its own. The Operating Partnership, not the General Partner, generally executes all significant business relationships other than transactions involving the securities of the General Partner. The Operating Partnership holds substantially all of the assets of the General Partner, including ownership interests in joint ventures. The Operating Partnership conducts the operations of the business and is structured as a partnership with no publicly traded equity. Except for the net proceeds from equity offerings by the General Partner, which are contributed to the

capital of the Operating Partnership in consideration of common or preferred units in the Operating Partnership, as applicable, the Operating Partnership generates all remaining capital required by the Company’s business. These sources include working capital, net cash provided by operating activities, borrowings under the Company’s unsecured revolving credit facility and unsecured term loan facilities, the issuance of secured and unsecured debt and equity securities and proceeds received from the disposition of properties and joint ventures.

Shareholders’ equity, partners’ capital and noncontrolling interests are the main areas of difference between the consolidated financial statements of the General Partner and the Operating Partnership. The limited partners of the Operating Partnership are accounted for as partners’ capital in the Operating Partnership’s financial statements as is the General Partner’s interest in the Operating Partnership. The noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership’s financial statements comprise the interests of unaffiliated partners in various consolidated partnerships and development joint venture partners. The noncontrolling interests in the General Partner’s financial statements are the same noncontrolling interests at the Operating Partnership’s level and include limited partners of the Operating Partnership. The differences between shareholders’ equity and partners’ capital result from differences in the equity issued at the General Partner and Operating Partnership levels.

To help investors better understand the key differences between the General Partner and the Operating Partnership, certain information for the General Partner and the Operating Partnership in this report has been separated, as set forth below:

Item 1. Financial Statements (unaudited), which includes the following specific disclosures for Mack-Cali Realty Corporation and Mack-Cali Realty, L.P.:

MACK-CALI REALTY CORPORATION, MACK-CALI REALTY, L.P. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)

1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Organization

Mack-Cali Realty Corporation, a Maryland corporation, together with its subsidiaries (collectively, the “General Partner”) is a fully-integrated self-administered, self-managed real estate investment trust (“REIT”). The General Partner controls Mack-Cali Realty, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, together with its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Operating Partnership”), as its sole general partner and owned a 90.1 and 89.8 percent common unit interest in the Operating Partnership as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. The General Partner’s business is the ownership of interests in and operation of the Operating Partnership and all of the General Partner’s expenses are incurred for the benefit of the Operating Partnership. The General Partner is reimbursed by the Operating Partnership for all expenses it incurs relating to the ownership and operation of the Operating Partnership.

The Operating Partnership conducts the business of providing leasing, management, acquisition, development and tenant-related services for its General Partner. The Operating Partnership, through its operating divisions and subsidiaries, including the Mack-Cali property-owning partnerships and limited liability companies, is the entity through which all of the General Partner’s operations are conducted. Unless stated otherwise or the context requires, the “Company” refers to the General Partner and its subsidiaries, including the Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries.

As of September 30, 2019, the Company owned or had interests in 76 real estate properties (the “Properties”). The Properties are comprised of 45 office buildings totaling approximately 11.6 million square feet and leased to approximately 400 tenants (which include two buildings, aggregating approximately 0.2 million square feet owned by unconsolidated joint ventures in which the Company has investment interests), 24 multi-family properties, totaling 7,904 apartment units (which include seven properties aggregating 2,611 apartment units owned by unconsolidated joint ventures in which the Company has investment interests), four parking/retail properties totaling approximately 115,000 square feet (which include two buildings aggregating 81,700 square feet owned by unconsolidated joint ventures in which the Company has investment interests), two hotels (one of which is owned by an unconsolidated joint venture in which the Company has an investment interest) and one parcel of land leased to a third party. The Properties are located in four states in the Northeast, plus the District of Columbia.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include all accounts of the Company, its majority-owned and/or controlled subsidiaries, which consist principally of the Operating Partnership and variable interest entities for which the Company has determined itself to be the primary beneficiary, if any. See Note 2: Significant Accounting Policies – Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures, for the Company’s treatment of unconsolidated joint venture interests. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810, Consolidation, provides guidance on the identification of entities for which control is achieved through means other than voting rights (“variable interest entities” or “VIEs”) and the determination of which business enterprise, if any, should consolidate the VIEs. Generally, the consideration of whether an entity is a VIE applies when either: (1) the equity investors (if any) lack (i) the ability to make decisions about the entity’s activities through voting or similar rights, (ii) the obligation to absorb the expected losses of the entity, or (iii) the right to receive the expected residual returns of the entity; (2) the equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance that entity’s activities without additional subordinated financial support; or (3) the equity investors have voting rights that are not proportionate to their economic interests and substantially all of the activities of the entity involve or are conducted on behalf of an investor with a disproportionately small voting interest. The Company consolidates VIEs in which it is considered to be the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary is defined by the entity having both of the following characteristics: (1) the power to direct the activities that, when taken together, most significantly impact the variable interest entity’s performance: and (2) the obligation to absorb losses and right to receive the returns from the VIE that would be significant to the VIE.

On January 1, 2016, the Company adopted accounting guidance under ASC 810, Consolidation, modifying the analysis it must perform to determine whether it should consolidate certain types of legal entities. The guidance does not amend the existing disclosure requirements for variable interest entities or voting interest model entities. The guidance, however, modified the requirements to qualify under the voting interest model. Under the revised guidance, the Operating Partnership will be a variable interest entity of the parent company, Mack-Cali Realty Corporation. As the Operating Partnership is already consolidated in the balance sheets of Mack-Cali Realty Corporation, the identification of this entity as a variable interest entity has no impact on the consolidated financial statements of Mack-Cali Realty Corporation. There were no other legal entities qualifying under the scope of the revised guidance that were consolidated as a result of the adoption.

Table of Contents

As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company’s investments in consolidated real estate joint ventures, which are variable interest entities in which the Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary, other than Roseland Residential, L.P. (See Note 14: Rockpoint Transaction), have total real estate assets of $518 million and $480.4 million, respectively, mortgages of $283.3 million and $241.5 million, respectively, and other liabilities of $16 million and $23 million, respectively.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Rental Property

Rental properties are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Costs directly related to the acquisition, development and construction of rental properties are capitalized. Acquisition–related costs were expensed as incurred for all real estate acquisitions classified as business combinations, which were substantially all of our operating property acquisitions through December 31, 2016. The Company adopted FASB guidance Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-01 on January 1, 2017, which revises the definition of a business and is expected to result in more transactions to be accounted for as asset acquisitions and significantly limit transactions that would be accounted for as business combinations. Where an acquisition has been determined to be an asset acquisition, acquisition-related costs are capitalized. Capitalized development and construction costs include pre-construction costs essential to the development of the property, development and construction costs, interest, property taxes, insurance, salaries and other project costs incurred during the period of development. Capitalized development and construction salaries and related costs approximated $0.5 million and $0.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $1.6 million and $1.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Ordinary repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred; major replacements and betterments, which improve or extend the life of the asset, are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Fully-depreciated assets are removed from the accounts.

Included in net investment in rental property as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 is real estate and building and tenant improvements not in service, as follows (dollars in thousands):



		September 30,		December 31,
		2019		2018
Land held for development (including pre-development costs, if any) (a)	$	424,251	$	465,930
Development and construction in progress, including land (b)		362,442		327,039
Total	$	786,693	$	792,969

(a)Includes predevelopment and infrastructure costs included in buildings and improvements of $163.7 million and $204.9 million as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

(b)Includes land of $71.2 million and $49.6 million as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

The Company considers a construction project as substantially completed and held available for occupancy upon the substantial completion of improvements, but no later than one year from cessation of major construction activity (as distinguished from activities such as routine maintenance and cleanup). If portions of a rental project are substantially completed and occupied by tenants or residents, or held available for occupancy, and other portions have not yet reached that stage, the substantially completed portions are accounted for as a separate project. The Company allocates costs incurred between the portions under construction and the portions substantially completed and held available for occupancy, primarily based on a percentage of the relative commercial square footage or multi-family units of each portion, and capitalizes only those costs associated with the portion under construction.

Table of Contents

Properties are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The estimated useful lives are as follows:

Leasehold interests	Remaining lease term
Buildings and improvements	5 to 40 years
Tenant improvements	The shorter of the term of the
	related lease or useful life
Furniture, fixtures and equipment	5 to 10 years

In estimating the fair value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired, the Company considers information obtained about each property as a result of its due diligence and marketing and leasing activities, and utilizes various valuation methods, such as estimated cash flow projections utilizing appropriate discount and capitalization rates, estimates of replacement costs net of depreciation, and available market information. The fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired property considers the value of the property as if it were vacant.

Above-market and below-market lease values for acquired properties are initially recorded based on the present value (using a discount rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to each in-place lease and (ii) management’s estimate of fair market lease rates for each corresponding in-place lease, measured over a period equal to the remaining term of the lease for above-market leases and the remaining initial term plus the term of any below-market fixed rate renewal options for below-market leases. The capitalized above-market lease values are amortized as a reduction of base rental revenue over the remaining terms of the respective leases, and the capitalized below-market lease values are amortized as an increase to base rental revenue over the remaining initial terms plus the terms of any below-market fixed rate renewal options of the respective leases.

Other intangible assets acquired include amounts for in-place lease values and tenant relationship values, which are based on management’s evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant’s lease and the Company’s overall relationship with the respective tenant. Factors to be considered by management in its analysis of in-place lease values include an estimate of carrying costs during hypothetical expected lease-up periods considering current market conditions, and costs to execute similar leases. In estimating carrying costs, management includes real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rentals at market rates during the expected lease-up periods, depending on local market conditions. In estimating costs to execute similar leases, management considers leasing commissions, legal and other related expenses. Characteristics considered by management in valuing tenant relationships include the nature and extent of the Company’s existing business relationships with the tenant, growth prospects for developing new business with the tenant, the tenant’s credit quality and expectations of lease renewals. The values of in-place leases are amortized to expense over the remaining initial terms of the respective leases. The values of tenant relationship intangibles are amortized to expense over the anticipated life of the relationships or leases.

On a periodic basis, management assesses whether there are any indicators that the value of the Company’s rental properties held for use may be impaired. In addition to identifying any specific circumstances which may affect a property or properties, management considers other criteria for determining which properties may require assessment for potential impairment. The criteria considered by management, depending on the type of property, may include reviewing low leased percentages, significant near-term lease expirations, current and historical operating and/or cash flow losses, construction costs overruns and/or other factors, including those that might impact the Company’s intent and ability to hold the property. 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 over its estimated holding period is less than the carrying value of the property. If there are different possible scenarios for a property, the Company will take a probability-weighted approach to estimating future cash flow scenarios. To the extent impairment has occurred, the impairment loss is measured as the excess of the carrying value of the property over the fair value of the property. The Company’s estimates of aggregate future cash flows expected to be generated by each property are based on a number of assumptions, including but not limited to estimated holding periods, market capitalization rates and discount rates, if applicable. These assumptions are generally based on management’s experience in its local real estate markets and the effects of current market conditions. The assumptions are subject to economic and market uncertainties including, among others, demand for space, competition for tenants, changes in market rental rates, and costs to operate each property. As these factors are difficult to predict and are subject to future events that may alter management’s assumptions, the future cash flows estimated by management in its impairment analyses may not be achieved, and actual losses or impairments may be realized in the future.

Table of Contents

Rental Property Held for Sale

When assets are identified by management as held for sale, the Company discontinues depreciating the assets and estimates the sales price, net of selling costs, of such assets. The Company generally considers assets to be held for sale when the transaction has received appropriate corporate authority, it is probable to be sold within the following 12 months, and there are no significant contingencies relating to the sale. If, in management’s opinion, the estimated net sales price, net of selling costs, of the assets which have been identified as held for sale is less than the carrying value of the assets, a valuation allowance (which is recorded as unrealized losses on disposition of rental property) is established.

If circumstances arise that previously were considered unlikely and, as a result, the Company decides not to sell a property previously classified as held for sale, the property is reclassified as held and used. A property that is reclassified is measured and recorded individually at the lower of (a) its carrying value before the property was classified as held for sale, adjusted for any depreciation (amortization) expense that would have been recognized had the property been continuously classified as held and used, or (b) the fair value at the date of the subsequent decision not to sell.

Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures

The Company accounts for its investments in unconsolidated joint ventures under the equity method of accounting. The Company applies the equity method by initially recording these investments at cost, as Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures, subsequently adjusted for equity in earnings and cash contributions and distributions. The outside basis portion of the Company’s joint ventures is amortized over the anticipated useful lives of the underlying ventures’ tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Generally, the Company would discontinue applying the equity method when the investment (and any advances) is reduced to zero and would not provide for additional losses unless the Company has guaranteed obligations of the venture or is otherwise committed to providing further financial support for the investee. If the venture subsequently generates income, the Company only recognizes its share of such income to the extent it exceeds its share of previously unrecognized losses.

If the venture subsequently makes distributions and the Company does not have an implied or actual commitment to support the operations of the venture, including a general partner interest in the investee, the Company will not record a basis less than zero, rather such amounts will be recorded as equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures.

On a periodic basis, management assesses whether there are any indicators that the value of the Company’s investments in unconsolidated joint ventures may be impaired. An investment is impaired only if management’s estimate of the value of the investment is less than the carrying value of the investment, and such decline in value is deemed to be other than temporary. To the extent impairment has occurred, the loss shall be measured as the excess of the carrying value of the investment over the value of the investment. The Company’s estimates of value for each investment (particularly in real estate joint ventures) are based on a number of assumptions that are subject to economic and market uncertainties including, among others, demand for space, competition for tenants, changes in market rental rates, and operating costs. As these factors are difficult to predict and are subject to future events that may alter management’s assumptions, the values estimated by management in its impairment analyses may not be realized, and actual losses or impairment may be realized in the future. See Note 4: Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

All highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased are considered to be cash equivalents.

Deferred Financing Costs

Costs incurred in obtaining financing are capitalized and amortized over the term of the related indebtedness. Deferred financing costs are presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying value of the debt liability to which they relate, except deferred financing costs related to the revolving credit facility, which are presented in deferred charges, goodwill and other assets. In all cases, amortization of such costs is included in interest expense and was $1,121,000 and $1,302,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $3,478,000 and $3,543,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. If a financing obligation is extinguished early, any unamortized deferred financing costs are written off and included in gains (losses) from extinguishment of debt. The gains (losses) from extinguishment of debt, net, of $(0.1) million and zero for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, contained unamortized deferred financing costs which were written off (as non-cash transactions) amounting to $285,000 and zero, respectively. Included in gain (loss) from extinguishment of debt, net, of $1.8 million and ($10.3) million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, were unamortized deferred financing costs which were written off (as non-cash transactions) amounting to $285,000 and $105,000, respectively.

Table of Contents

Deferred Leasing Costs/Leasing Personnel Costs

Costs incurred in connection with successfully executed commercial and residential leases were capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the related leases and included in depreciation and amortization. Unamortized deferred leasing costs were charged to amortization expense upon early termination of the lease. Certain employees of the Company are compensated for providing leasing services to the Properties. The portion of such compensation related to commercial leases, which was capitalized and amortized, and included in deferred charges, goodwill and other assets, net, was approximately $598,000 and $2,226,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively. Upon the adoption of ASC 842 on January 1, 2019, the Company no longer capitalizes such costs, and includes such costs in Leasing personnel costs in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations, which amounted to $534,000 and $1,818,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net tangible and intangible assets acquired in a business combination. Goodwill is allocated to various reporting units, as applicable. Each of the Company’s segments consists of a reporting unit. Goodwill is not amortized. Management performs an annual impairment test for goodwill during the fourth quarter and between annual tests, management evaluates the recoverability of goodwill whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of goodwill may not be fully recoverable. In its impairment tests of goodwill, management first assesses qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value. If, based on this assessment, management determines that the fair value of the reporting unit is not less than its carrying value, then performing the additional two-step impairment test is unnecessary. If the carrying value of goodwill exceeds its fair value, an impairment charge is recognized.

Derivative Instruments

The Company measures derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, at fair value and records them as an asset or liability, depending on the Company’s rights or obligations under the applicable derivative contract. For derivatives designated and qualifying as fair value hedges, the changes in the fair value of both the derivative instrument and the hedged item are recorded in earnings. For derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, the effective portions of the derivative are reported in other comprehensive income (“OCI”) and are subsequently reclassified into earnings when the hedged item affects earnings. Changes in fair value of derivative instruments not designated as hedging and ineffective portions of hedges are recognized in earnings in the affected period.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue from leases includes fixed base rents under leases, which are recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases. Unbilled rents receivable represents the cumulative amount by which straight-line rental revenue exceeds rents currently billed in accordance with the lease agreements.

Above-market and below-market lease values for acquired properties are initially recorded based on the present value (using a discount rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to each in-place lease and (ii) management’s estimate of fair market lease rates for each corresponding in-place lease, measured over a period equal to the remaining term of the lease for above-market leases and the remaining initial term plus the term of any below-market fixed-rate renewal options for below-market leases. The capitalized above-market lease values for acquired properties are amortized as a reduction of base rental revenue over the remaining terms of the respective leases, and the capitalized below-market lease values are amortized as an increase to revenue from leases over the remaining initial terms plus the terms of any below-market fixed-rate renewal options of the respective leases.

Revenue from leases also includes reimbursements and recoveries from tenants received from tenants for certain costs as provided in the lease agreements. These costs generally include real estate taxes, utilities, insurance, common area maintenance and other recoverable costs. See Note 13: Tenant Leases.

Real estate services revenue includes property management, development, construction and leasing commission fees and other services, and payroll and related costs reimbursed from clients. Fee income derived from the Company’s unconsolidated joint ventures (which are capitalized by such ventures) are recognized to the extent attributable to the unaffiliated ownership interests.

Parking income includes income from parking spaces leased to tenants and others.

Hotel income includes all revenue earned from hotel properties.

Table of Contents

Other income includes income from tenants for additional services arranged for by the Company and income from tenants for early lease terminations.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

All bad debt expense is being recorded as a reduction of the corresponding revenue account starting on January 1, 2019. Management performs a detailed review of amounts due from tenants to determine if an allowance for doubtful accounts is required based on factors affecting the collectability of the accounts receivable balances. The factors considered by management in determining which individual tenant receivable balances, require a collectability allowance include the age of the receivable, the tenant’s payment history, the nature of the charges, any communications regarding the charges and other related information. Management’s estimate of the allowance for doubtful accounts requires management to exercise judgment about the timing, frequency and severity of collection losses, which affects the allowance and net income.

Income and Other Taxes

The General Partner has elected to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “IRS Code”). As a REIT, the General Partner generally will not be subject to corporate federal income tax on net income that it currently distributes to its shareholders, provided that the General Partner satisfies certain organizational and operational requirements including the requirement to distribute at least 90 percent of its REIT taxable income (determined by excluding any net capital gains) to its shareholders. If and to the extent the General Partner retains and does not distribute any net capital gains, the General Partner will be required to pay federal, state and local taxes, as applicable, on such net capital gains at the rate applicable to capital gains of a corporation.

The Operating Partnership is a partnership, and, as a result, all income and losses of the partnership are allocated to the partners for inclusion in their respective tax returns. Accordingly, no provision or benefit for income taxes has been made in the accompanying financial statements.

The General Partner has elected to treat certain of its corporate subsidiaries as taxable REIT subsidiaries (each a “TRS”). In general, a TRS of the General Partner may perform additional services for tenants of the Company and generally may engage in any real estate or non-real estate related business (except for the operation or management of health care facilities or lodging facilities or the providing to any person, under a franchise, license or otherwise, rights to any brand name under which any lodging facility or health care facility is operated). A TRS is subject to corporate federal income tax. The General Partner has conducted business through its TRS entities for certain property management, development, construction and other related services, as well as to hold a joint venture interest in a hotel and other matters.

The deferred tax asset balance at September 30, 2019 amounted to $9.5 million which has been fully reserved through a valuation allowance. New tax reform legislation enacted in late 2017 reduced the corporate tax rate to 21 percent, effective January 1, 2018. Consequently, the Company’s deferred tax assets were re-measured to reflect the reduction in the future U.S. corporate income tax rate as of the enactment date. As a result, the Company recorded a decrease related to its deferred tax assets of $5.3 million and a decrease to the associated valuation allowance of $5.3 million at December 31, 2017. If the General Partner fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, the Company will be subject to federal income tax on its taxable income at regular corporate tax rates. The Company is subject to certain state and local taxes.

Pursuant to the amended provisions related to uncertain tax provisions of ASC 740, Income Taxes, the Company recognized no material adjustments regarding its tax accounting treatment. The Company expects to recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions, if any, as income tax expense, which is included in general and administrative expense.

In the normal course of business, the Company or one of its subsidiaries is subject to examination by federal, state and local jurisdictions in which it operates, where applicable. As of September 30, 2019, the tax years that remain subject to examination by the major tax jurisdictions under the statute of limitations are generally from the year 2014 forward.

Earnings Per Share or Unit

The Company presents both basic and diluted earnings per share or unit (“EPS or EPU”). Basic EPS or EPU excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders or unitholders by the weighted average number of shares or units outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS or EPU reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock, where such exercise or conversion would result in a lower EPS or EPU from continuing operations amount. Shares or units whose issuance is contingent upon the satisfaction of certain conditions shall be considered outstanding and included in the computation of diluted EPS or EPU as follows (i) if all necessary conditions have been satisfied by the end of the period (the events have occurred), those shares or units shall be included as of the beginning of the period in

Table of Contents

which the conditions were satisfied (or as of the date of the grant, if later) or (ii) if all necessary conditions have not been satisfied by the end of the period, the number of contingently issuable shares or units included in diluted EPS or EPU shall be based on the number of shares or units, if any, that would be issuable if the end of the reporting period were the end of the contingency period (for example, the number of shares or units that would be issuable based on current period earnings or period-end market price) and if the result would be dilutive. Those contingently issuable shares or units shall be included in the denominator of diluted EPS or EPU as of the beginning of the period (or as of the date of the grant, if later).

Dividends and Distributions Payable

The dividends and distributions payable at September 30, 2019 represents dividends payable to common shareholders (90,552,178 shares) and distributions payable to noncontrolling interests unitholders of the Operating Partnership (9,850,074 common units and 1,949,601 vested and unvested LTIP units), for all such holders of record as of October 4, 2019 with respect to the third quarter 2019. The third quarter 2019 common stock dividends and unit distributions of $0.20 per common share (total of $18.1 million), common unit (total of $2.0 million) and LTIP unit (total of $0.4 million) were approved by the General Partner’s Board of Directors on September 24, 2019 and paid on October 11, 2019.

The dividends and distributions payable at December 31, 2018 represents dividends payable to common shareholders (90,320,408 shares) and distributions payable to noncontrolling interests unitholders of the Operating Partnership (10,174,285 common units and 1,762,170 LTIP units) for all such holders of record as of January 3, 2019 with respect to the fourth quarter 2018. The fourth quarter 2018 common stock dividends and unit distributions of $0.20 per common share (total of $18.1 million), common unit (total of $2.0 million) and LTIP unit (total of $0.4 million) were approved by the General Partner’s Board of Directors on December 11, 2018 and paid on January 11, 2019.

Costs Incurred For Stock Issuances

Costs incurred in connection with the Company’s stock issuances are reflected as a reduction of additional paid-in capital.

Stock Compensation

The Company accounts for stock compensation in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation. These provisions require that the estimated fair value of restricted stock (“Restricted Stock Awards”), performance share units, long-term incentive plan awards and stock options at the grant date be amortized ratably into expense over the appropriate vesting period. The Company recorded stock compensation expense of $1,980,000 and $1,770,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $6,051,000 and $4,959,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Other comprehensive income (loss) includes items that are recorded in equity, such as effective portions of derivatives designated as cash flow hedges or unrealized holding gains or losses on marketable securities available for sale.

Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests

The Company evaluates the terms of the partnership units issued in accordance with the FASB’s Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity guidance. Units which embody an unconditional obligation requiring the Company to redeem the units for cash after a specified or determinable date (or dates) or upon the occurrence of an event that is not solely within the control of the issuer are determined to be contingently redeemable under this guidance and are included as Redeemable noncontrolling interests and classified within the mezzanine section between Total liabilities and Stockholders’ equity on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. The carrying amount of the redeemable noncontrolling interests will be changed by periodic accretions, so that the carrying amount will equal the estimated future redemption value at the redemption date.

Fair Value Hierarchy

The standard Fair Value Measurements specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based upon whether the inputs to those valuation techniques reflect assumptions other market participants would use based upon market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs). The following summarizes the fair value hierarchy:

Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets that are unadjusted and accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;

Level 2: Quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in markets that are inactive, quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or financial instruments for which significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals and

Level 3: Prices or valuations that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls has been determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.

Impact of Recently-Issued Accounting Standards

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), modifying the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both parties to a contract (i.e. lessees and lessors). ASU 2016-02 provides new guidelines that change the accounting for leasing arrangements for lessees, whereby their rights and obligations under substantially all leases, existing and new, would be capitalized and recorded on the balance sheet. For lessors, however, the accounting remains largely equivalent to the current model, with the distinction between operating, sales-type, and direct financing leases retained, but updated to align with certain changes to the lessee model and the new revenue recognition standard.

ASU 2016-02 provides two transition methods. The first transition method allows for application of the new model at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented. Under the second transition method, comparative periods would not be restated, with any cumulative effect adjustments recognized in the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. In addition, a practical expedient was recently issued by the FASB that allows lessors to combine non-lease components with related lease components if certain conditions are met. The Company has adopted this guidance for its interim and annual periods beginning January 1, 2019 using the second transition method.

Under ASU 2016-02, lessors will only capitalize incremental direct leasing costs and will expense internal leasing costs that were previously capitalized prior to the adoption of ASU 2016-02. For leases where the Company is a lessee, primarily its ground leases, the Company is recognizing a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (“ASU 2016-13”). The guidance introduces a new model for estimating credit losses for certain types of financial instruments, including trade and lease receivables, loans receivable, held-to-maturity debt securities, and net investments in direct financing leases, amongst other financial instruments. ASU 2016-13 also modifies the impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities and expands the disclosure requirements regarding an entity’s assumptions, models, and methods for estimating the allowance for losses. ASU 2016-13 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2016-13 to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging: Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities (“ASU 2017-12”). The purpose of ASU 2017-12 is to better align a company’s financial reporting for hedging activities with the economic objectives of those activities. The Company has adopted ASU 2017-12 on January 1, 2019. ASU 2017-12 requires a modified retrospective transition method which requires a cumulative effect of the change on the opening balance of each affected component of equity in the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of the date of adoption. Upon adoption the Company recorded a cumulative adjustment specifically related to the elimination of the requirement for separate measurement of hedge ineffectiveness. As a result, the Company recorded an opening balance adjustment as of January 1, 2019 to retained earnings of $0.4 million with a corresponding change to other comprehensive income.

Consolidation

Table of Contents

In accordance with ASC 810, Consolidation, the Company evaluated the acquisition and determined that the entity meets the criteria of a VIE. As such, the Company consolidated the asset upon acquisition and accordingly, remeasured its equity interests, as required by the FASB’s consolidation guidance, at fair value (based upon the income approach using current rates and market cap rates and discount rates). As a result, the Company recorded a gain on change of control of interests of $13.8 million (a non-cash item) in the nine months ended September 30, 2019, in which the Company accounted for the transaction as a VIE that is not a business in accordance with ASC 810-10-30-4. Additional non-cash items included in the acquisition were the Company’s carrying value of its interest in the joint venture of $15.3 million and the noncontrolling interest’s fair value of $13.7 million. See Note 9: Mortgages, Loans Payable and Other Obligations.

On October 3, 2019, the Company entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Overlook Ridge Agreement”) with affiliates of the Rockpoint Group, L.L.C. (collectively, the “Overlook Purchasers”) to sell to the Overlook Purchasers the Company’s Chase at Overlook Ridge and Alterra at Overlook Ridge properties located in Malden and Revere, Massachusetts, respectively, (the “Overlook Ridge Properties”) for an aggregate sale price of $411.5 million. The Overlook Ridge Properties are multi-family residential properties totaling 1,386 residential units and were identified as held for sale as of September 30, 2019, as referenced earlier. The Overlook Ridge Agreement is filed as Exhibit 10.108 to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

The sale of the Overlook Ridge Properties was completed on October 23, 2019. Proceeds from the sale were used primarily to retire mortgage loans of $235.8 million and to repay outstanding borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit facility that were drawn to fund a portion of the Company's purchase of Liberty Towers.

Impairments

As part of its ongoing portfolio assessment process, the Company made the decision in the second quarter 2019 to pursue selling a 317,040 square foot office property. The Company evaluated the recoverability of the carrying value of this property and determined that due to the shortening of the expected period of ownership, it was necessary to reduce the carrying value of the property to its estimated fair value. Accordingly, the Company recorded a valuation impairment charge of $5.8 million at June 30, 2019.

Additionally, at September 30, 2019, the Company evaluated the recoverability of the carrying value of certain properties and undeveloped land, being considered for sale in the short or medium term and determined that due to the potential shortening of the expected period of ownership, it was necessary to reduce the carrying value of the properties and land to their estimated fair values. The Company also recorded an impairment charge of $451,000 on miscellaneous investments. Accordingly, the Company recorded a property impairment charge of $5.9 million and land and other impairment charges of $6.1 million at September 30, 2019.

The Company owns two separate developable land parcels in Conshohocken and Bala Cynwyd, Pennsylvania, that were being considered for development into multi-family rental properties. During the fourth quarter 2018, the Company made the decision to pursue selling the land parcels as opposed to development. Due to the shortening of the expected periods of ownership, the Company determined that it was necessary to reduce the carrying value of the land parcels to their estimated fair value and recorded land impairments charges of $24.6 million at December 31, 2018. As a result of its periodic evaluation of the recoverability of the carrying value, the Company recorded additional land impairment charges of $0.2 and $2.7 million in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively.

Rockpoint Transaction

agreement (the “Original Investment Agreement”) with certain affiliates of Rockpoint Group, L.L.C. (Rockpoint Group, L.L.C. and its affiliates, collectively, “Rockpoint”). The Original Investment Agreement provided for RRT to contribute property to RRLP in exchange for common units of limited partnership interests in RRLP (the “Common Units”) and for multiple equity investments by Rockpoint in RRLP from time to time for up to an aggregate of $300 million of preferred units of limited partnership interests in RRLP (the “Preferred Units”). The initial closing under the Original Investment Agreement occurred on March 10, 2017 for $150 million of Preferred Units and the parties agreed that the Company’s contributed equity value (“RRT Contributed Equity Value”), was $1.23 billion at closing. During the year ended December 31, 2018, a total additional amount of $105 million of Preferred Units were issued and sold to Rockpoint pursuant to the Original Investment Agreement. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, a total additional amount of $45 million of Preferred Units were issued and sold to Rockpoint pursuant to the Original Investment Agreement, which brought the Preferred Units to the full balance of $300 million. In addition, certain contributions of property to RRLP by RRT subsequent to the execution of the Original Investment Agreement resulted in RRT being issued approximately $46 million of Preferred Units and Common Units in RRLP prior to June 26, 2019.

On June 26, 2019, the Company, RRT, RRLP, certain other affiliates of the Company and Rockpoint entered into an additional preferred equity investment agreement (the “Add On Investment Agreement”). The closing under the Add On Investment Agreement occurred on June 28, 2019. Pursuant to the Add On Investment Agreement, Rockpoint invested an additional $100 million in Preferred Units and RRT agreed to contribute to RRLP two additional properties located in Jersey City, New Jersey. The Company used the $100 million in proceeds received to repay outstanding borrowings under its unsecured revolving credit facility and other debt by June 30, 2019. In addition, Rockpoint has a right of first refusal to invest another $100 million in Preferred Units in the event RRT determines that RRLP requires additional capital prior to March 1, 2023 and, subject thereto, RRLP may issue up to approximately $154 million in Preferred Units to RRT or an affiliate so long as at the time of such funding RRT determines in good faith that RRLP has a valid business purpose to use such proceeds. See Note 14: Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests for additional information about the Add On Investment Agreement and the related transactions with Rockpoint.

Consolidated Joint Venture Activity

On March 26, 2019, the Company, which held a 90 percent controlling interest in the joint venture, XS Hotel Urban Renewal LLC, which owns a 372-key hotel (164 keys in-service Residence Inn and 208 keys in-development Marriott Envue) located in Weehawken, New Jersey, acquired its partner’s 10 percent interest for $5 million in cash. As a result of the acquisition, the Company increased its ownership of the property to 100 percent.

Unconsolidated Joint Venture Activity

On February 28, 2019, the Company sold its interest in the Red Bank Corporate Plaza joint venture which owns an operating property located in Red Bank, New Jersey for a sales price of $4.2 million, and realized a gain on the sale of the unconsolidated joint venture of $0.9 million.

4. INVESTMENTS IN UNCONSOLIDATED JOINT VENTURES

As of September 30, 2019, the Company had an aggregate investment of approximately $213.5 million in its equity method joint ventures. The Company formed these ventures with unaffiliated third parties, or acquired interests in them, to develop or manage primarily office and multi-family rental properties, or to acquire land in anticipation of possible development of office and multi-family rental properties. As of September 30, 2019, the unconsolidated joint ventures owned: two office properties aggregating approximately 0.2 million square feet, seven multi-family properties totaling 2,611 apartments units, two retail properties aggregating approximately 81,700 square feet, a 351-room hotel, a development project for up to approximately 360 apartments units; and interests and/or rights to developable land parcels able to accommodate up to 3,738 apartments units. The Company’s unconsolidated interests range from 20 percent to 85 percent subject to specified priority allocations in certain of the joint ventures.

The amounts reflected in the following tables (except for the Company’s share of equity in earnings) are based on the historical financial information of the individual joint ventures. The Company does not record losses of the joint ventures in excess of its investment balances unless the Company is liable for the obligations of the joint venture or is otherwise committed to provide financial support to the joint venture. The outside basis portion of the Company’s investments in joint ventures is amortized over the anticipated useful lives of the underlying ventures’ tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Unless otherwise noted below, the debt of the Company’s unconsolidated joint ventures generally is non-recourse to the Company, except for customary exceptions pertaining to such matters as intentional misuse of funds, environmental conditions, and material misrepresentations.

The Company has agreed to guarantee repayment of a portion of the debt of its unconsolidated joint ventures. As of September 30, 2019, such debt had a total borrowing capacity of up to $318 million of which the Company agreed to guarantee up to $34.6 million. As of September 30, 2019, the outstanding balance of such debt totaled $220.4 million of which $24.8 million was guaranteed by the Company. The Company performed management, leasing, development and other services for the properties owned by the

Table of Contents

unconsolidated joint ventures and recognized $0.6 million and $0.6 million for such services in the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The Company had $0.3 million in accounts receivable due from its unconsolidated joint ventures as of both September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

Included in the Company’s investments in unconsolidated joint ventures as of September 30, 2019 are four unconsolidated development joint ventures, which are VIEs for which the Company is not the primary beneficiary. These joint ventures are primarily established to develop real estate property for long-term investment and were deemed VIEs primarily based on the fact that the equity investment at risk was not sufficient to permit the entities to finance their activities without additional financial support. The initial equity contributed to these entities was not sufficient to fully finance the real estate construction as development costs are funded by the partners throughout the construction period. The Company determined that it was not the primary beneficiary of these VIEs based on the fact that the Company has shared control of these entities along with the entity’s partners and therefore does not have controlling financial interests in these VIEs. The Company’s aggregate investment in these VIEs was approximately $118.5 million as of September 30, 2019. The Company’s maximum exposure to loss as a result of its involvement with these VIEs is estimated to be approximately $153.1 million, which includes the Company’s current investment and estimated future funding commitments/guarantees of approximately $34.6 million. The Company has not provided financial support to these VIEs that it was not previously contractually required to provide. In general, future costs of development not financed through third parties will be funded with capital contributions from the Company and its outside partners in accordance with their respective ownership percentages.

The following is a summary of the Company's unconsolidated joint ventures as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 (dollars in thousands):

DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. As of September 30, 2019, the Company had outstanding interest rate swaps with a combined notional value of $280 million that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, such derivatives were used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with existing variable-rate debt. During March 2019, in connection with a partial paydown of the Company’s outstanding term loans, the Company terminated interest rate swaps with an aggregate notional amount of $90 million. During June 2019, in connection with a subsequent partial paydown of the Company’s outstanding unsecured term loans, the Company terminated interest rate swaps with an aggregate notional amount of $160 million. During August 2019, in connection with a partial paydown of the Company’s outstanding unsecured term loans, the Company terminated rate swaps with an aggregate notional amount of $145 million. These paydowns resulted in the Company accelerating the reclassification of gains from other comprehensive income to earnings as a result of the hedged forecasted transactions no longer being probable to occur, amounting to $0.1 million and $1.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively.

The changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. The Company recorded no ineffectiveness gain or loss during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and recorded ineffectiveness gain (loss) of $47,000 and $(127,000) during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively, which is included in interest and other investment income (loss) in the consolidated statements of operations, attributable to a floor mismatch in the underlying indices of the derivatives and the hedged interest payments made on its variable-rate debt. Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the Company’s variable-rate debt. During the next 12 months, the Company estimates that an additional $0.2 million will be reclassified as a decrease to interest expense.

The table below presents the fair value of the Company’s derivative financial instruments as well as their classification on the Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 (dollars in thousands):

8. UNSECURED REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITY AND TERM LOANS

On January 25, 2017, the Company entered into an amended revolving credit facility and new term loan agreement (“2017 Credit Agreement”) with a group of 13 lenders. Pursuant to the 2017 Credit Agreement, the Company refinanced its existing $600 million unsecured revolving credit facility (“2017 Credit Facility”) and entered into a new $325 million unsecured, delayed-draw term loan facility (“2017 Term Loan”). Effective March 6, 2018, the Company elected to determine its interest rate under the 2017 Credit Agreement and under the 2017 Term Loan using the defined leverage ratio option, resulting in an interest rate of London Inter-Bank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus 130 basis points and LIBOR plus 155 basis points, respectively.

The terms of the 2017 Credit Facility include: (1) a four year term ending in January 2021, with two six month extension options; (2) revolving credit loans may be made to the Company in an aggregate principal amount of up to $600 million (subject to increase as discussed below), with a sublimit under the 2017 Credit Facility for the issuance of letters of credit in an amount not to exceed $60 million (subject to increase as discussed below); (3) an interest rate, based on the Operating Partnership’s unsecured debt ratings from Moody’s or S&P, or, at the Operating Partnership’s option, if it no longer maintains a debt rating from Moody’s or S&P, or such debt ratings fall below Baa3 and BBB-, based on a defined leverage ratio; and (4) a facility fee, currently 25 basis points, payable quarterly based on the Operating Partnership’s unsecured debt ratings from Moody’s or S&P, or, at the Operating Partnership’s option,

if it no longer maintains a debt rating from Moody’s or S&P or such debt ratings fall below Baa3 and BBB-, based on a defined leverage ratio.

After electing to use the defined leverage ratio to determine the interest rate, the interest rates on outstanding borrowings, alternate base rate loans and the facility fee on the current borrowing capacity, payable quarterly in arrears, on the 2017 Credit Facility are currently based on the following total leverage ratio grid:


		Interest Rate -
		Applicable
	Interest Rate -	Basis Points
	Applicable	Above LIBOR for
	Basis Points	Alternate Base	Facility Fee
Total Leverage Ratio	Above LIBOR	Rate Loans	Basis Points
<45%	125.0	25.0	20.0

≥50% and <55%	135.0	35.0	30.0
≥55%	160.0	60.0	35.0

Prior to the election to use the defined leverage ratio option, the interest rates on outstanding borrowings, alternate base rate loans and the facility fee on the current borrowing capacity, payable quarterly in arrears, on the 2017 Credit Facility were based upon the Operating Partnership’s unsecured debt ratings, as follows:


		Interest Rate -

BBB+ or Baa1	90.0	0.0	15.0
A- or A3 or higher	87.5	0.0	12.5

The terms of the 2017 Term Loan include: (1) a three year term ending in January 2020, with two one year extension options; (2) multiple draws of the term loan commitments may be made within 12 months of the effective date of the 2017 Credit Agreement up to an aggregate principal amount of $325 million (subject to increase as discussed below), with no requirement to be drawn in full; provided, that, if the Company does not borrow at least 50 percent of the initial term commitment from the term lenders (i.e. 50 percent of $325 million) on or before July 25, 2017, the amount of unused term loan commitments shall be reduced on such date so that, after giving effect to such reduction, the amount of unused term loan commitments is not greater than the outstanding term loans on such date; (3) an interest rate, based on the Operating Partnership’s unsecured debt ratings from Moody’s or S&P, or, at the Operating Partnership’s option if it no longer maintains a debt rating from Moody’s or S&P or such debt ratings fall below Baa3 and BBB-, based on a defined leverage ratio; and (4) a term commitment fee on any unused term loan commitment during the first 12 months after the effective date of the 2017 Credit Agreement at a rate of 0.25 percent per annum on the sum of the average daily unused portion of the aggregate term loan commitments.

On March 22, 2017, the Company drew the full $325 million available under the 2017 Term Loan. On March 29, 2017, the Company executed interest rate swap arrangements to fix LIBOR with an aggregate average rate of 1.6473% for the swaps and a current aggregate fixed rate of 3.1973% on borrowings under the 2017 Term Loan.

On August 5, 2019, the Company prepaid $45 million on the 2017 Term Loan (using a portion of the proceeds from a new mortgage loan collateralized by an office building located at 111 River Street received on that date) and recorded a gain of $44,000 due to the early termination of part of the interest rate swap arrangements, as a result of the debt prepayment. Unamortized deferred financing costs and fees amounting to $64,000 pertaining to the 2017 Term Loan were written off on August 5, 2019.

BBB+ or Baa1	100.0	0.0
A- or A3 or higher	90.0	0.0

On up to four occasions at any time after the effective date of the 2017 Credit Agreement, the Company may elect to request (1) an increase to the existing revolving credit commitments (any such increase, the “New Revolving Credit Commitments”) and/or (2) the establishment of one or more new term loan commitments (the “New Term Commitments”, together with the 2017 Credit Commitments, the “Incremental Commitments”), by up to an aggregate amount not to exceed $350 million for all Incremental Commitments. The Company may also request that the sublimit for letters of credit available under the 2017 Credit Facility be increased to $100 million (without arranging any New Revolving Credit Commitments). No lender or letter of credit issued has any obligation to accept any Incremental Commitment or any increase to the letter of credit subfacility. There is no premium or penalty associated with full or partial prepayment of borrowings under the 2017 Credit Agreement.

The 2017 Credit Agreement, which applies to both the 2017 Credit Facility and 2017 Term Loan, includes certain restrictions and covenants which limit, among other things the incurrence of additional indebtedness, the incurrence of liens and the disposition of real estate properties (to the extent that: (i) such property dispositions cause the Company to default on any of the financial ratios of the 2017 Credit Agreement (described below), or (ii) the property dispositions are completed while the Company is under an event of default under the 2017 Credit Agreement, unless, under certain circumstances, such disposition is being carried out to cure such default), and which require compliance with financial ratios relating to the maximum leverage ratio (60 percent), the maximum amount of secured indebtedness (40 percent), the minimum amount of fixed charge coverage (1.5 times), the maximum amount of unsecured indebtedness (60 percent), the minimum amount of unencumbered property interest coverage (2.0 times) and certain investment limitations (generally 15 percent of total capitalization). If an event of default has occurred and is continuing, the entire outstanding balance under the 2017 Credit Agreement may (or, in the case of any bankruptcy event of default, shall) become immediately due and payable, and the Company will not make any excess distributions except to enable the General Partner to continue to qualify as a REIT under the IRS Code.

Before it amended and restated its unsecured revolving credit facility in January 2017, the Company had a $600 million unsecured revolving credit facility with a group of 17 lenders that was scheduled to mature in July 2017. The interest rate on outstanding borrowings (not electing the Company’s competitive bid feature) and the facility fee on the current borrowing capacity payable quarterly in arrears was based upon the Operating Partnership’s unsecured debt ratings at the time, as follows:


Operating Partnership's	Interest Rate -
Unsecured Debt Ratings:	Applicable Basis Points	Facility Fee
Higher of S&P or Moody's	Above LIBOR	Basis Points
No ratings or less than BBB-/Baa3	170.0	35.0

A- or A3 or higher	92.5	12.5

In January 2016, the Company obtained a $350 million unsecured term loan (“2016 Term Loan”), which matures in January 2019 with two one year extension options. On January 7, 2019, the Company exercised the first one-year extension option with the payment of an extension fee of $0.5 million, which extended the maturity of the 2016 Term Loan to January 2020. The interest rate for the term loan is based on the Operating Partnership’s unsecured debt ratings, or, at the Company's option, a defined leverage ratio. Effective March 6, 2018, the Company elected to determine its interest rate under the 2016 Term Loan using the defined leverage ratio option, resulting in an interest rate of LIBOR plus 155 basis points. The Company entered into interest rate swap arrangements to fix LIBOR for the duration of the term loan. Including costs, the current all-in fixed rate is 3.28 percent. The proceeds from the loan were used primarily to repay outstanding borrowings on the Company’s then existing unsecured revolving credit facility and to repay $200 million senior unsecured notes that matured on January 15, 2016.

On March 29, 2019, the Company prepaid $90 million on the 2016 Term Loan (using a portion of the cash sales proceeds from the Flex portfolio sale completed on that date) and recorded a gain of $1.3 million due to the early termination of part of the interest rate swap arrangements, as a result of the debt prepayment. On June 24, 2019, the Company prepaid $160 million on the 2016 Term Loan (primarily using the proceeds from a mortgage loan financing obtained on the recently acquired Soho Lofts Apartments) and recorded an additional gain of $0.6 million due to the early termination of part of the interest rate swap arrangements as a result of the debt prepayment. On August 5, 2019, the Company prepaid the remaining $100 million balance outstanding on the 2016 Term Loan (using a portion of the proceeds from a new mortgage loan collateralized by an office building located at 111 River Street received on that date), and recorded a gain of $164,000 due to the early termination of part of the interest rate swap arrangements, as a result of the debt prepayment. Unamortized deferred financing costs and fees amounting to $242,000 pertaining to the 2016 Term Loan were written off on August 5, 2019.

As a result of the prepayment of the 2016 Term Loan and the partial prepayment of the 2017 Term Loan, the Company recorded a net gain(loss) on extinguishment of debt of ($98,000) and $1.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively.

After electing to use the defined leverage ratio to determine interest rate, the interest rate under the 2016 Term Loan is currently based on the following total leverage ratio grid:

1.The unsecured debt ratio covenant has been modified with respect to the measurement of the unencumbered collateral pool of assets in the calculation of such ratio for the period commencing July 1, 2018 and continuing until December 31, 2019 to allow the Operating Partnership to utilize the “as-is” appraised value of the properties known as ‘Harborside Plaza I’ and ‘Harborside Plaza V’ properties located in Jersey City, NJ in such calculation; and

2.A new covenant has been added that prohibits the Company from making any optional or voluntary payment, repayment, repurchase or redemption of any unsecured indebtedness of the Company (or any subsidiaries) that matures after January 25, 2022, at any time when any of the Total Leverage Ratio or the unsecured debt ratio covenants exceeds 60 percent (all as defined in the 2017 Credit Agreement and the 2016 Term Loan) or an appraisal is being used to determine the value of Harborside Plaza I and Harborside Plaza V for the unsecured debt ratio covenant.

All other terms and conditions of the 2017 Credit Agreement and the 2016 Term Loan remain unchanged.

The Company was in compliance with its debt covenants under its unsecured revolving credit facility and term loans as of September 30, 2019.

10. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT 401(k) PLANS

Employees of the General Partner, who meet certain minimum age and service requirements, are eligible to participate in the Mack-Cali Realty Corporation 401(k) Savings/Retirement Plan (the “401(k) Plan”). Eligible employees may elect to defer from one percent up to 60 percent of their annual compensation on a pre-tax basis to the 401(k) Plan, subject to certain limitations imposed by federal law. The amounts contributed by employees are immediately vested and non-forfeitable. The Company may make discretionary matching or profit sharing contributions to the 401(k) Plan on behalf of eligible participants in any plan year. Participants are always 100 percent vested in their pre-tax contributions and will begin vesting in any matching or profit sharing contributions made on their behalf after two years of service with the Company at a rate of 20 percent per year, becoming 100 percent vested after a total of six years of service with the Company. All contributions are allocated as a percentage of compensation of the eligible participants for the Plan year. The assets of the 401(k) Plan are held in trust and a separate account is established for each participant. A participant may receive a distribution of his or her vested account balance in the 401(k) Plan in a single sum or in installment payments upon his or her termination of service with the Company. Total expense recognized by the Company for the 401(k) Plan for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 was $212,000 and $237,000, respectively, and $720,000 and $735,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

11. DISCLOSURE OF FAIR VALUE OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

The following disclosure of estimated fair value was determined by management using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. However, considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and develop estimated fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could realize on disposition of the assets and liabilities at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

Cash equivalents, receivables, notes receivables, accounts payable, and accrued expenses and other liabilities are carried at amounts which reasonably approximate their fair values as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt, consisting of senior unsecured notes, unsecured term loans, an unsecured revolving credit facility and mortgages, loans payable and other obligations aggregated approximately $3,127,626,000 and $2,711,712,000 as compared to the book value of approximately $3,151,561,000 and $2,792,651,000 as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt was categorized as a level 3 basis (as provided by ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures). The fair value was estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis valuation based on the borrowing rates currently available to the Company for loans with similar terms and maturities. The fair value of the mortgage debt and the unsecured notes was determined by discounting the future contractual interest and principal payments by a market rate. Although the Company has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivative financial instruments fall within level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with its derivative financial instruments utilize level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by itself and its counterparties. The Company has assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of its derivative positions and has determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of its derivative financial instruments. As a result, the Company has determined that its derivative financial instruments valuations in their entirety are classified in level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The fair value measurements used in the evaluation of the Company’s rental properties are considered to be Level 3 valuations within the fair value hierarchy, as there are significant unobservable inputs. Examples of inputs that were utilized in the fair value calculations include estimated holding periods, discount rates, market capitalization rates, expected lease rental rates, and third party broker information.

Valuations of rental property identified as held for sale are based on estimated sale prices, net of estimated selling costs, of such property.

The Company identified as held for sale three office properties, three multi-family rental properties and one retail pad as of September

Table of Contents

30, 2019 with an aggregate carrying value for the rental property of $419.2 million. The total estimated sales proceeds, net of expected selling costs, from the sales are expected to be approximately $536.6 million. The Company determined that the carrying value of two of the properties was not expected to be recovered from estimated net sales proceeds and accordingly recognized an unrealized loss allowance of $35.1 million during the three months ended September 30, 2019.

As part of its ongoing portfolio assessment process, the Company made the decision to pursue selling a 317,040 square foot office property. The Company evaluated the recoverability of the carrying value of this property and determined that due to the shortening of the expected period of ownership, it was necessary to reduce the carrying value of the property to its estimated fair value. Accordingly, the Company recorded a valuation impairment charge of $5.8 million at June 30, 2019.

The Company owns two separate developable land parcels in Conshohocken and Bala Cynwyd, Pennsylvania, that were being considered for development into multi-family rental properties. During the fourth quarter 2018, the Company made the decision to pursue selling the land parcels as opposed to development. Due to the shortening of the expected period of ownership, the Company determined that it was necessary to reduce the carrying value of the land parcels to their estimated fair value and recorded land impairments charges of $24.6 million at December 31, 2018. As a result of its periodic evaluation of the recoverability of the carrying value, the Company recorded additional land impairment charges of $0.2 and $2.7 million in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively.

Disclosure about fair value of assets and liabilities is based on pertinent information available to management as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. Although management is not aware of any factors that would significantly affect the fair value amounts, such amounts have not been comprehensively revalued for purposes of these financial statements since September 30, 2019 and current estimates of fair value may differ significantly from the amounts presented herein.

Table of Contents

which had a balance of $22.4 million at September 30, 2019 for five ground leases. Such amount represents the net present value (“NPV”) of future payments detailed above. The incremental borrowing rates used to arrive at the NPV ranged from 5.637 percent to 7.618 percent for the remaining ground lease terms ranging from 6.25 years to 82.58 years. These rates were arrived at by adjusting the fixed rates of the Company’s mortgage debt with debt having terms approximating the remaining lease term of the Company’s ground leases and calculating notional rates for fully-collateralized loans.

OTHER

Through February 2016, the Company could not dispose of or distribute certain of its properties, which were originally contributed by certain unrelated common unitholders of the Operating Partnership, without the express written consent of such common unitholders, as applicable, except in a manner which did not result in recognition of any built-in-gain (which may result in an income tax liability) or which reimbursed the appropriate specific common unitholders for the tax consequences of the recognition of such built-in-gains (collectively, the “Property Lock-Ups”). Upon the expiration in February 2016 of the Property Lock-Ups, the Company is generally required to use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent any sale, transfer or other disposition of the subject properties from resulting in the recognition of built-in gain to the specific common unitholders, which include members of the Mack Group (which includes William L. Mack, Chairman of the General Partner’s Board of Directors; David S. Mack, a former director; and Earle I. Mack, a former director), the Robert Martin Group, and the Cali Group (which includes John R. Cali, a former director). As of September 30, 2019, after the effects of tax-free exchanges on certain of the originally contributed properties, either wholly or partially, over time, 28 of the Company’s properties, as well as certain land and development projects, with an aggregate carrying value of approximately $1.7 billion,

are subject to these conditions.

13. TENANT LEASES

The Properties are leased to tenants under operating leases with various expiration dates through 2036. Substantially all of the commercial 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.

Future minimum rentals to be received under non-cancelable commercial operating leases at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 are as follows (dollars in thousands):

14. REDEEMABLE NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS

The Company evaluates the terms of the partnership units issued in accordance with the FASB’s Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity guidance. Units which embody an unconditional obligation requiring the Company to redeem the units for cash after a specified or determinable date (or dates) or upon the occurrence of an event that is not solely within the control of the issuer are determined to be contingently redeemable under this guidance and are included as Redeemable noncontrolling interests and classified within the mezzanine section between Total liabilities and Stockholders’ equity on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. Convertible units for which the Company has the option to settle redemption amounts in cash or Common Stock are included in the caption Noncontrolling interests in subsidiaries within the equity section on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Rockpoint Transaction

On February 27, 2017, the Company, Roseland Residential Trust (“RRT”), the Company’s subsidiary through which the Company conducts its multi-family residential real estate operations, Roseland Residential, L.P. (“RRLP”), the operating partnership through which RRT conducts all of its operations, and certain other affiliates of the Company entered into a preferred equity investment agreement (the “Original Investment Agreement”) with certain affiliates of Rockpoint Group, L.L.C. (Rockpoint Group, L.L.C. and its affiliates, collectively, “Rockpoint”). The Original Investment Agreement provided for RRT to contribute property to RRLP in exchange for common units of limited partnership interests in RRLP (the “Common Units”) and for multiple equity investments by Rockpoint in RRLP from time to time for up to an aggregate of $300 million of preferred units of limited partnership interests in RRLP (the “Preferred Units”). The initial closing under the Original Investment Agreement occurred on March 10, 2017 for $150 million of Preferred Units and the parties agreed that the Company’s contributed equity value (“RRT Contributed Equity Value”), was $1.23 billion at closing. During the year ended December 31, 2018, a total additional amount of $105 million of Preferred Units were issued and sold to Rockpoint pursuant to the Original Investment Agreement. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, a total additional amount of $45 million of Preferred Units were issued and sold to Rockpoint pursuant to the Original Investment Agreement, which brought the

Table of Contents

Preferred Units to the full balance of $300 million. In addition, certain contributions of property to RRLP by RRT subsequent to the execution of the Original Investment Agreement resulted in RRT being issued approximately $46 million of Preferred Units and Common Units in RRLP prior to June 26, 2019.

On June 26, 2019, the Company, RRT, RRLP, certain other affiliates of the Company and Rockpoint entered into an additional preferred equity investment agreement (the “Add On Investment Agreement”). The closing under the Add On Investment Agreement occurred on June 28, 2019. Pursuant to the Add On Investment Agreement, Rockpoint invested an additional $100 million in Preferred Units and RRT agreed to contribute to RRLP two additional properties located in Jersey City, New Jersey. In addition, Rockpoint has a right of first refusal to invest another $100 million in Preferred Units in the event RRT determines that RRLP requires additional capital prior to March 1, 2023 and, subject thereto, RRLP may issue up to approximately $154 million in Preferred Units to RRT or an affiliate so long as at the time of such funding RRT determines in good faith that RRLP has a valid business purpose to use such proceeds. Included in general and administrative expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 were $371,000 in fees associated with the modifications of the Original Investment Agreement, which were made upon signing of the Add On Investment Agreement.

Under the terms of the new transaction with Rockpoint, the cash flow from operations of RRLP will be distributable to Rockpoint and RRT as follows:

first, to provide a 6% annual return to Rockpoint and RRT on their capital invested in Preferred Units (the “Preferred Base Return”);

second, 95.36% to RRT and 4.64% to Rockpoint until RRT has received a 6% annual return (the “RRT Base Return”) on the equity value of the properties contributed by it to RRLP in exchange for Common Units (previously 95% and 5%, respectively, under the Original Investment Agreement), subject to adjustment in the event RRT contributes additional property to RRLP in the future; and

third, pro rata to Rockpoint and RRT based on total respective capital invested in and contributed equity value of Preferred Units and Common Units (based on Rockpoint’s $400 million of invested capital at September 30, 2019, this pro rata distribution would be approximately 21.89% to Rockpoint in respect of Preferred Units, 2.65% to RRT in respect of Preferred Units and 75.46% to RRT in respect of Common Units).

RRLP’s cash flow from capital events will generally be distributable by RRLP to Rockpoint and RRT as follows:

first, to Rockpoint and RRT to the extent there is any unpaid, accrued Preferred Base Return;

second, as a return of capital to Rockpoint and to RRT in respect of Preferred Units;

third, 95.36% to RRT and 4.64% to Rockpoint until RRT has received the RRT Base Return in respect of Common Units (previously 95% and 5%, respectively, under the Original Investment Agreement), subject to adjustment in the event RRT contributes additional property to RRLP in the future;

fourth, 95.36% to RRT and 4.64% to Rockpoint until RRT has received a return of capital based on the equity value of the properties contributed by it to RRLP in exchange for Common Units (previously 95% and 5%, respectively, under the Original Investment Agreement), subject to adjustment in the event RRT contributes additional property to the capital of RRLP in the future;

fifth, pro rata to Rockpoint and RRT based on respective total capital invested in and contributed equity value of Preferred and Common Units until Rockpoint has received an 11% internal rate of return (based on Rockpoint’s $400 million of invested capital at September 30, 2019, this pro rata distribution would be approximately 21.89% to Rockpoint in respect of Preferred Units, 2.65% to RRT in respect of Preferred Units and 75.46% to RRT in respect of Common Units); and

sixth, to Rockpoint and RRT in respect of their Preferred Units based on 50% of their pro rata shares described in “fifth” above and the balance to RRT in respect of its Common Units (based on Rockpoint’s $400 million of invested capital at September 30, 2019, this pro rata distribution would be approximately 10.947% to Rockpoint in respect of Preferred Units, 1.325% to RRT in respect of Preferred Units and 87.728% to RRT in respect of Common Units).

In general, RRLP may not sell its properties in taxable transactions, although it may engage in tax-deferred like-kind exchanges of properties or it may proceed in another manner designed to avoid the recognition of gain for tax purposes.

In connection with the Add On Investment Agreement, on June 26, 2019, RRT increased the size of its board of trustees from six to seven persons, with five trustees being designated by the Company and two trustees being designated by Rockpoint.

In addition, as was the case under the Original Investment Agreement, RRT and RRLP are required to obtain Rockpoint’s consent with respect to:

debt financings in excess of a 65% loan-to-value ratio;

corporate level financings that are pari-passu or senior to the Preferred Units;

Table of Contents

new investment opportunities to the extent the opportunity requires an equity capitalization in excess of 10% of RRLP’s NAV;

new investment opportunities located in a Metropolitan Statistical Area where RRLP owns no property as of the previous quarter;

declaration of bankruptcy of RRT;

transactions between RRT and the Company, subject to certain limited exceptions;

any equity granted or equity incentive plan adopted by RRLP or any of its subsidiaries; and

certain matters relating to the Credit Enhancement Note (as defined below) between the Company and RRLP (other than ordinary course borrowings or repayments thereunder).

Under a Discretionary Demand Promissory Note (the “Credit Enhancement Note”), the Company may provide periodic cash advances to RRLP. The Credit Enhancement Note provides for an interest rate equal to the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate plus fifty (50) basis points above the applicable interest rate under the Company’s unsecured revolving credit facility. The maximum aggregate principal amount of advances at any one time outstanding under the Credit Enhancement Note is limited to $50 million, an increase of $25 million from the prior transaction.

RRT and RRLP also have agreed, as was the case under the Original Investment Agreement, to register the Preferred Units under certain circumstances in the future in the event RRT or RRLP becomes a publicly traded company.

During the period commencing on June 28, 2019 and ending on March 1, 2023 (the “Lockout Period”), Rockpoint’s interest in the Preferred Units cannot be redeemed or repurchased, except in connection with (a) a sale of all or substantially all of RRLP or a sale of a majority of the then-outstanding interests in RRLP, in each case, which sale is not approved by Rockpoint, or (b) a spin-out or initial public offering of common stock of RRT, or distributions of RRT equity interests by the Company or its affiliates to shareholders or their respective parent interestholders (an acquisition pursuant clauses (a) or (b) above, an “Early Purchase”). RRT has the right to acquire Rockpoint’s interest in the Preferred Units in connection with an Early Purchase for a purchase price generally equal to (i) the amount that Rockpoint would receive upon the sale of the assets of RRLP for fair market value and a distribution of the net sale proceeds in accordance with (A) the capital event distribution priorities discussed above (in the case of certain Rockpoint Preferred Holders) and (B) the distribution priorities applicable in the case of a liquidation of RRLP (in the case of the other Rockpoint Preferred Holder), plus (ii) a make whole premium (such purchase price, the “Purchase Payment”). The make whole premium is an amount equal to (i) $173.5 million until December 28, 2020, or $198.5 million thereafter, less distributions theretofore made to Rockpoint with respect to its Preferred Base Return or any deficiency therein, plus (ii) $1.5 million less certain other distributions theretofore made to Rockpoint.

The fair market value of RRLP’s assets is determined by a third party appraisal of the net asset value (“NAV”) of RRLP and the fair market value of RRLP’s assets, to be completed within ninety (90) calendar days of March 1, 2023 and annually thereafter.

After the Lockout Period, either RRT may acquire from Rockpoint, or Rockpoint may sell to RRT, all, but not less than all, of Rockpoint’s interest in the Preferred Units (each, a “Put/Call Event”) for a purchase price equal to the Purchase Payment (determined without regard to the make whole premium and any related tax allocations). An acquisition of Rockpoint’s interest in the Preferred Units pursuant to a Put/Call Event is generally required to be structured as a purchase of the common equity in the applicable Rockpoint entities holding direct or indirect interests in the Preferred Units. Subject to certain exceptions, Rockpoint also has a right of first offer and a participation right with respect to other common equity interests of RRLP or any subsidiary of RRLP that may be offered for sale by RRLP or its subsidiaries from time to time. Upon a Put/Call Event, other than in the event of a sale of RRLP, Rockpoint may elect to convert all, but not less than all, of its Preferred Units to Common Units in RRLP.

As such, the Preferred Units contain a substantive redemption feature that is outside of the Company’s control and accordingly, pursuant to ASC 480-1—S99-3A, the Preferred Units are classified in mezzanine equity measured based on the estimated future redemption value as of September 30, 2019. The Company determines the redemption value of these interests by hypothetically liquidating the estimated NAV of the RRT real estate portfolio including debt principal through the applicable waterfall provisions of the new transaction with Rockpoint. The estimation of NAV includes unobservable inputs that consider assumptions of market participants in pricing the underlying assets of RRLP. For properties under development, the Company applies a discount rate to the estimated future cash flows allocable to the Company during the period under construction and then applies a direct capitalization method to the estimated stabilized cash flows. For operating properties, the direct capitalization method is used by applying a capitalization rate to the projected net operating income. Estimated future cash flows used in such analyses are based on the Company’s business plan for each respective property including capital expenditures, management’s views of market and economic conditions, and considers items such as current and future rental rates, occupancies and market transactions for comparable properties. The estimated future redemption value of the Preferred Units is approximately $491 million as of September 30, 2019.

Preferred Units

On February 3, 2017, the Operating Partnership issued 42,800 shares of a new class of 3.5 percent Series A Preferred Limited Partnership

Table of Contents

Units of the Operating Partnership (the “Series A Units”). The Series A Units were issued to the Company’s partners in the Plaza VIII & IX Associates L.L.C. joint venture that owns a development site adjacent to the Company’s Harborside property in Jersey City, New Jersey as non-cash consideration for their approximate 37.5 percent interest in the joint venture.

Each Series A Unit has a stated value of $1,000, pays dividends quarterly at an annual rate of 3.5 percent (subject to increase under certain circumstances), is convertible into 28.15 common units of limited partnership interests of the Operating Partnership beginning generally five years from the date of issuance, or an aggregate of up to 1,204,820 common units. The conversion rate was based on a value of $35.52 per common unit. The Series A Units have a liquidation and dividend preference senior to the common units and include customary anti-dilution protections for stock splits and similar events. The Series A Units are redeemable for cash at their stated value beginning five years from the date of issuance at the option of the holder.

On February 28, 2017, the Operating Partnership authorized the issuance of 9,213 shares of a new class of 3.5 percent Series A-1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units of the Operating Partnership (the “Series A-1 Units”). 9,122 Series A-1 Units were issued on February 28, 2017 and an additional 91 Series A-1 Units were issued in April 2017 pursuant to acquiring additional interests in a joint venture that owns Monaco Towers in Jersey City, New Jersey. The Series A-1 Units were issued as non-cash consideration for the partner’s approximate 13.8 percent ownership interest in the joint venture.

Each Series A-1 Unit has a stated value of $1,000 (the “Stated Value”), pays dividends quarterly at an annual rate equal to the greater of (x) 3.5 percent, or (y) the then-effective annual dividend yield on the General Partner’s common stock, and is convertible into 27.936 common units of limited partnership interests of the Operating Partnership beginning generally five years from the date of issuance, or an aggregate of up to 257,375 Common Units. The conversion rate was based on a value of $35.80 per common unit. The Series A-1 Units have a liquidation and dividend preference senior to the Common Units and include customary anti-dilution protections for stock splits and similar events. The Series A-1 Units are redeemable for cash at their stated value beginning five years from the date of issuance at the option of the holder. The Series A-1 Units are pari passu with the 42,800 3.5% Series A Units issued on February 3, 2017.

15. MACK-CALI REALTY CORPORATION STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY AND MACK-CALI REALTY, L.P.’S PARTNERS’ CAPITAL

To maintain its qualification as a REIT, not more than 50 percent in value of the outstanding shares of the General Partner may be owned, directly or indirectly, by five or fewer individuals at any time during the last half of any taxable year of the General Partner, other than its initial taxable year (defined to include certain entities), applying certain constructive ownership rules. To help ensure that the General Partner will not fail this test, the General Partner’s Charter provides, among other things, certain restrictions on the transfer of common stock to prevent further concentration of stock ownership. Moreover, to evidence compliance with these requirements, the General Partner must maintain records that disclose the actual ownership of its outstanding common stock and demands written statements each year from the holders of record of designated percentages of its common stock requesting the disclosure of the beneficial owners of such common stock.

Partners’ Capital in the accompanying consolidated financial statements relates to (a) General Partners’ capital consisting of common units in the Operating Partnership held by the General Partner, and (b) Limited Partners’ capital consisting of common units and LTIP units held by the limited partners. See Note 16: Noncontrolling Interests in Subsidiaries.

Any transactions resulting in the issuance of additional common and preferred stock of the General Partner result in a corresponding issuance by the Operating Partnership of an equivalent amount of common and preferred units to the General Partner.

SHARE/UNIT REPURCHASE PROGRAM

In September 2012, the Board of Directors of the General Partner renewed and authorized an increase to the General Partner’s repurchase program (“Repurchase Program”). The General Partner has authorization to repurchase up to $150 million of its outstanding common stock under the renewed Repurchase Program, which it may repurchase from time to time in open market transactions at prevailing prices or through privately negotiated transactions. As of September 30, 2019, the General Partner has repurchased and retired 394,625 shares of its outstanding common stock for an aggregate cost of approximately $11 million (all of which occurred in the year ended December 31, 2012), with a remaining authorization under the Repurchase Program of $139 million. Concurrent with these repurchases, the General Partner sold to the Operating Partnership common units for approximately $11 million.

DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT AND STOCK PURCHASE PLAN

The General Partner has a Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan (the “DRIP”) which commenced in March 1999 under which approximately 5.5 million shares of the General Partner’s common stock have been reserved for future issuance. The DRIP provides for automatic reinvestment of all or a portion of a participant’s dividends from the General Partner’s shares of common stock. The DRIP also permits participants to make optional cash investments up to $5,000 a month without restriction and, if the Company waives this limit, for additional amounts subject to certain restrictions and other conditions set forth in the DRIP prospectus filed as part of the Company’s effective registration statement on Form S-3 filed with the SEC for the approximately 5.5 million shares of the General Partner’s common stock reserved for issuance under the DRIP.

AO LTIP UNITS (Appreciation-Only LTIP Units)

Pursuant to the terms of the DeMarco Employment Agreement (see Note 12: Commitments and Contingencies-Executive Employment Agreements), the Company entered into an AO Long-Term Incentive Plan Award Agreement (the “AO LTIP Award Agreement”) with Mr. DeMarco on March 13, 2019 that provided for the grant to Mr. DeMarco of 625,000 AO LTIP Units. AO LTIP Units are a class of partnership interests in the Operating Partnership that are intended to qualify as “profits interests” for federal income tax purposes and generally only allow the recipient to realize value to the extent the fair market value of a share of Common Stock exceeds the threshold level set at the time the AO LTIP Units are granted, subject to any vesting conditions applicable to the award. The threshold level was fixed at $21.46 in the AO LTIP Award Agreement, the closing price of the Common Stock as reported on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) on the date of grant. The value of vested AO LTIP Units is realized through conversion of the AO LTIP Units into common units of limited partnership interests of the Operating Partnership (the “Common Units”). The number of Common Units into which vested AO LTIP Units may be converted is determined based on the quotient of (i) the excess of the fair market value of the Common Stock on the conversion date over the threshold level designated at the time the AO LTIP Unit was granted (i.e., $21.46), divided by (ii) the fair market value of the Common Stock on the conversion date. AO LTIP Units, once vested, have a finite term during which they may be converted into Common Units, within ten years from the grant date of the AO LTIP Units or they are forfeited. In addition, the AO LTIP Units issued to Mr. DeMarco are subject to the following vesting conditions:

(i) 250,000 of the AO LTIP Units shall vest and become exercisable on the earliest date on which the closing price of the Common Stock, as reported on the NYSE, or if the Common Stock is not then traded on the NYSE, then the closing price of the Common Stock on any other securities exchange on which the Common Stock is traded or quoted (the “Securities Market”), has been equal to or greater than $25.00 per share for at least 30 consecutive trading days, provided that such date occurs prior to March 13, 2023 (the “Outside Date”);

(ii) an additional 250,000 of the AO LTIP Units shall vest and become exercisable on the earliest date on which the closing price of the Common Stock, as reported on the NYSE, or if the Common Stock is not then traded on the NYSE, then the closing price of the Common Stock on the Securities Market, has been equal to or greater than $28.00 per share for at least 30 consecutive trading days, provided that such date occurs prior to the Outside Date; and

(iii) an additional 125,000 of the AO LTIP Units shall vest and become exercisable on the earliest date on which the closing price of the Common Stock, as reported on the NYSE, or if the Common Stock is not then traded on the NYSE, then the closing price of the Common Stock on the Securities Market, has been equal to or greater than $31.00 per share for at least 30 consecutive trading days, provided that such date occurs prior to the Outside Date.

Mr. DeMarco will generally receive special income allocations in respect of an AO LTIP Unit equal to 10 percent (or such other percentage specified in the applicable award agreement) of the income allocated in respect of a Common Unit. Upon conversion of AO LTIP Units to Common Units, Mr. DeMarco will be entitled to receive in respect of each such AO LTIP Unit, on a per unit basis, a special cash distribution equal to 10% (or such other percentage specified in the applicable award agreement) of the distributions received by a holder of an equivalent number of Common Units during the period from the grant date of the AO LTIP Units through the date of conversion. The Company has reserved shares of common stock under the 2013 Plan for issuance upon vesting and conversion of the AO LTIP Units in accordance with their terms and conditions.

The weighted average fair value of the AO LTIP Units granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was $3.98 per AO LTIP Unit. The fair value of each AO LTIP Unit grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Monte Carlo method. The following weighted average assumptions are included in the Company’s fair value calculations of AO LTIP Units granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2019:


	AO LTIP
	Units
Expected life (in years)	5.5 - 6.0
Risk-free interest rate	2.6	%
Volatility	29.0	%
Dividend yield	3.5	%

As of September 30, 2019, the Company had $2.1 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested AO LTIP Units granted under the Company’s stock compensation plans. That cost is expected to be recognized over a remaining weighted average period of 3.4 years. The Company recognized AO LTIP unit expense of $155,000 and $342,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively.

RESTRICTED STOCK AWARDS

The Company has issued stock awards (“Restricted Stock Awards”) to officers, certain other employees and non-employee members of the Board of Directors of the General Partner, which allow the holders to each receive a certain amount of shares of the General Partner’s common stock generally over a one to seven year vesting period, of which 24,200 unvested shares were legally outstanding at September 30, 2019. Vesting of the Restricted Stock Awards issued to executive officers and certain other employees is based on time and service.

On June 5, 2015, in connection with the new executive employment agreements signed at that time, the Company granted a total of 37,550.54 Restricted Stock Awards, which were valued in accordance with ASC 718 – Stock Compensation, at their fair value. These awards vested equally over a three year period on each annual anniversary date of the grant date.

All currently outstanding and unvested Restricted Stock Awards provided to the officers, certain other employees, and members of the Board of Directors of the General Partner were issued under the 2013 Plan.

PERFORMANCE SHARE UNITS

On June 5, 2015, in connection with the Executive Employment Agreements, the Company granted a total of 112,651.64 performance share units (“PSUs”) which was to vest from 0 to 150 percent of the number of PSUs granted based on the Company’s total shareholder return relative to a peer group of equity office REITs over a three year performance period starting from the grant date, each PSU evidencing the right to receive a share of the General Partner’s common stock upon vesting. The PSUs were also entitled to the payment of dividend equivalents in respect of vested PSUs in the form of additional PSUs. The PSUs were valued in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation, at their fair value on the grant date, utilizing a Monte-Carlo simulation to estimate the probability of the vesting conditions being satisfied. The PSUs vested at 100 percent on June 5, 2018 based on the calculation of the achievement

LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN AWARDS

On March 8, 2016, the Company granted Long-Term Incentive Plan (“LTIP”) awards to senior management of the Company, including the General Partner’s executive officers (the “2016 LTIP Awards”). All of the 2016 LTIP Awards were in the form of units in the Operating Partnership (“LTIP Units”) and constitute awards under the 2013 Plan. For Messrs. Rudin, DeMarco and Tycher, approximately 25 percent of the target 2016 LTIP Award was in the form of a time-based award that vested after three years on March 8, 2019 (the “2016 TBV LTIP Units”), and the remaining approximately 75 percent of the target 2016 LTIP Award was in the form of a performance-based award under a new Outperformance Plan (the “2016 OPP”) adopted by the General Partner’s Board of Directors consisting of a multi-year, performance-based equity compensation plan and related forms of award agreement (the “2016 PBV LTIP Units”). For all other executive officers, approximately 40 percent of the target 2016 LTIP Award was in the form of 2016 TBV LTIP Units and the remaining approximately 60 percent of the target 2016 LTIP Award was in the form of 2016 PBV LTIP Units. The 2016 TBV LTIP Units vested on March 8, 2019.

The 2016 OPP was designed to align the interests of senior management to relative and absolute performance of the Company over a three year performance period from March 8, 2016 through March 7, 2019. Participants in the 2016 OPP would only earn the full awards if, over the three year performance period, the Company achieves a 50 percent absolute total stockholder return (“TSR”) and if the Company is in the 75th percentile of performance versus the NAREIT Office Index. As the targets for vesting were not achieved, the 2016 PBV LTIP Units did not vest and were forfeited.

On April 4, 2017, the Company granted LTIP awards to senior management of the Company, including the General Partner’s executive officers (the “2017 LTIP Awards”). All of the 2017 LTIP Awards were in the form of LTIP Units and constitute awards under the 2013 Plan. For Messrs. DeMarco, Tycher and Rudin, approximately twenty-five percent (25%) of the 2017 LTIP Award was in the form of a time-based award that vests after three years on April 4, 2020 (the “2017 TBV LTIP Units”), and the remaining approximately seventy-five percent (75%) of the 2017 LTIP Award was in the form of a performance-based award under the Company’s Outperformance Plan (the “2017 OPP”) adopted by the General Partner’s Board of Directors, consisting of a multi-year, performance-based equity compensation plan and related forms of award agreement (the “2017 PBV LTIP Units”). For all other executive officers, approximately forty percent (40%) of the 2017 LTIP Award was in the form of 2017 TBV LTIP Units and the remaining approximately sixty percent (60%) of the 2017 LTIP Award was in the form of 2017 PBV LTIP Units.

The 2017 OPP was designed to align the interests of senior management to relative and absolute performance of the Company over a three-year performance period from April 4, 2017 through April 3, 2020. Participants in the 2017 OPP will only earn the full awards if, over the three year performance period, the Company achieves a thirty-six percent (36%) absolute TSR and if the Company is in the 75th percentile of performance as compared to the NAREIT office index.

On April 20, 2018, the Company granted LTIP awards to senior management of the Company, including the General Partner’s executive officers (the “2018 LTIP Awards”). All of the 2018 LTIP Awards were in the form of LTIP Units and constitute awards under the 2013 Plan. For Messrs. DeMarco and Tycher, approximately twenty-five percent (25%) of the grant date fair value of the 2018 LTIP Award was in the form of a time-based award that vests after three years on April 20, 2021 (the “2018 TBV LTIP Units”), and the remaining approximately seventy-five percent (75%) of the grant date fair value of the 2018 LTIP Award was in the form of a performance-based award under the Company’s Outperformance Plan (the “2018 OPP”) adopted by the General Partner’s Board of Directors, consisting of a multi-year, performance-based equity compensation plan and related forms of award agreement (the “2018 PBV LTIP Units”). For all other executive officers, approximately fifty percent (50%) of the grant date fair value of the 2018 LTIP Award was in the form of 2018 TBV LTIP Units and the remaining approximately fifty percent (50%) of the grant date fair value of the 2018 LTIP Award was in the form of 2018 PBV LTIP Units.

The 2018 OPP was designed to align the interests of senior management to relative and absolute performance of the Company over a three year performance period from April 20, 2018 through April 19, 2021. Participants in the 2018 OPP will only earn the full awards if, over the three year performance period, the Company achieves a thirty-six percent (36%) absolute TSR and if the Company’s TSR is in the 75th percentile of performance as compared to the office REITs in the NAREIT index.

On March 22, 2019, the Company granted LTIP awards to senior management of the Company, including the General Partner’s executive officers (the “2019 LTIP Awards”). All of the 2019 LTIP Awards were in the form of LTIP Units and constitute awards under the 2013 Plan. For Mr. DeMarco, approximately 25 percent of the target 2019 LTIP Awards were in the form of time-based LTIP Units that vest after three years on March 22, 2022 (the “2019 TBV LTIP Units”), and the remaining approximately 75 percent of the grant date fair value of his 2019 LTIP Award will be in the form of performance-based LTIP Units under the Company’s Outperformance

Table of Contents

Plan (the “2019 OPP”) adopted by the General Partner’s Board of Directors, consisting of a multi-year, performance-based equity compensation plan and related forms of award agreement (the “2019 PBV LTIP Units”). For Messrs. Tycher, Smetana, Wagner, Cardoso and Hilton, fifty percent (50%) of the grant date fair value of their respective 2019 LTIP Awards is in the form of 2019 TBV LTIP Units and the remaining fifty percent (50%) of the grant date fair value of their respective 2019 LTIP Awards is in the form of 2019 PBV LTIP Units. Mr. DeBari, who was promoted to Chief Accounting Officer on March 13, 2019, received 100 percent of his 2019 LTIP Award in the form of 2019 TBV LTIP Units.

The 2019 OPP was designed to align the interests of senior management to relative and absolute performance of the Company over a three year performance period from March 22, 2019 through March 21, 2022. Participants of performance-based awards in the 2019 OPP will only earn the full awards if, over the three year performance period, the Company achieves a thirty-six percent (36%) absolute total stockholder return (“TSR”) and if the Company’s TSR is in the 75th percentile of performance as compared to the office REITs in the NAREIT index.

LTIP Units will remain subject to forfeiture depending on the extent that the 2017 LTIP Awards, 2018 LTIP Awards and 2019 LTIP Awards vest. The number of LTIP Units to be issued initially to recipients of the 2017 PBV LTIP Awards, 2018 PBV LTIP Awards and 2019 PBV LTIP Awards is the maximum number of LTIP Units that may be earned under the awards. The number of LTIP Units that actually vest for each award recipient will be determined at the end of the performance measurement period. TSR for the Company and for the Index over the three-year measurement period and other circumstances will determine how many LTIP Units vest for each recipient; if they are fewer than the number issued initially, the balance will be forfeited as of the performance measurement date.

Prior to vesting, recipients of LTIP Units will be entitled to receive per unit distributions equal to one-tenth (10 percent) of the regular quarterly distributions payable on a Common Unit but will not be entitled to receive any special distributions. Distributions with respect to the other nine-tenths (90 percent) of regular quarterly distributions payable on a common unit will accrue but shall only become payable upon vesting of the LTIP Unit. After vesting of the 2016 TBV LTIP Units, 2017 TBV LTIP Units, 2018 LTIP and 2019 LTIP Awards or the end of the measurement period for the 2017 PBV LTIP Units, 2018 PBV LTIP Units and 2019 PBV LTIP Awards, the number of LTIP Units, both vested and unvested, will be entitled to receive distributions in an amount per unit equal to distributions, both regular and special, payable on a Common Unit.

As a result of targets for vesting not being achieved or management and other personnel changes during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the employees forfeited and cancelled 354,422 2016 LTIP Awards, 1,792 2017 LTIP Awards and 3,540 2018 LTIP Awards. As of September 30, 2019, a total of 11,155 2016 PBV LTIP Units, 79,266 2016 TBV LTIP Units, 390,654 2017 PBV LTIP Units, 80,434 2017 TBV LTIP Units, 629,252 2018 PBV LTIP Units, 193,217 2018 TBV LTIP Units, 392,476 2019 PBV LTIP Units and 173,147 2019 TBV LTIP Units, net of LTIP Units forfeited and cancelled, were outstanding. The LTIP Units were valued in accordance with ASC 718 – Stock Compensation, at their fair value. The Company has reserved shares of common stock under the 2013 Plan for issuance upon vesting and conversion of the LTIP Units in accordance with their terms and conditions.

As of September 30, 2019, the Company had $14.1 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested LTIP awards granted under the Company’s stock compensation plans. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.4 years.

DEFERRED STOCK COMPENSATION PLAN FOR DIRECTORS

The Amended and Restated Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors, which commenced January 1, 1999, allows non-employee directors of the Company to elect to defer up to 100 percent of their annual retainer fee into deferred stock units. The deferred stock units are convertible into an equal number of shares of common stock upon the directors’ termination of service from the Board of Directors or a change in control of the Company, as defined in the plan. Pursuant to the termination of service of five directors from the Board of Directors on June 12, 2019, the Company converted 193,949 stock units into shares of common stock. Deferred stock units are credited to each director quarterly using the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the applicable dividend record date for the respective quarter. Each participating director’s account is also credited for an equivalent amount of deferred stock units based on the dividend rate for each quarter.

During the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, 3,724 and 6,331 deferred stock units were earned. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, 10,767 and 19,918 deferred stock units were earned, respectively. As of September 30, 2019, June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, there were 56,176, 55,003 and 236,383 deferred stock units outstanding, respectively.

EARNINGS PER SHARE/UNIT

Basic EPS or EPU excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders or unitholders by the weighted average number of shares or units outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS or EPU reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock.

Pursuant to ASC 810, Consolidation, on the accounting and reporting for noncontrolling interests and changes in ownership interests of a subsidiary, changes in a parent’s ownership interest (and transactions with noncontrolling interests unitholders in the subsidiary) while the parent retains its controlling interest in its subsidiary should be accounted for as equity transactions. The carrying value of the noncontrolling interests shall be adjusted to reflect the change in its ownership interest in the subsidiary, with the offset to equity attributable to the parent. Accordingly, as a result of equity transactions which caused changes in ownership percentages between Mack-Cali Realty Corporation stockholders’ equity and noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership that occurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company has decreased noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership and increased additional paid-in capital in Mack-Cali Realty Corporation stockholders’ equity by approximately $1.6 million as of September 30, 2019.

NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS IN OPERATING PARTNERSHIP (applicable only to the General Partner)

Common Units

On March 29, 2019, 301,638 Common Units were redeemed by the Company at their fair market value of $6.6 million as payment received for two of the properties disposed of in the Flex portfolio.

Certain individuals and entities own common units in the Operating Partnership. A common unit and a share of Common Stock of the General Partner have substantially the same economic characteristics in as much as they effectively share equally in the net income or loss of the Operating Partnership. Common unitholders have the right to redeem their common units, subject to certain restrictions. The redemption is required to be satisfied in shares of Common Stock, cash, or a combination thereof, calculated as follows: one share of the General Partner’s Common Stock, or cash equal to the fair market value of a share of the General Partner’s Common Stock at the time of redemption, for each common unit. The General Partner, in its sole discretion, determines the form of redemption of common units (i.e., whether a common unitholder receives Common Stock, cash, or any combination thereof). If the General Partner elects to satisfy the redemption with shares of Common Stock as opposed to cash, it is obligated to issue shares of its Common Stock to the redeeming unitholder. Regardless of the rights described above, the common unitholders may not put their units for cash to the General Partner or the Operating Partnership under any circumstances. When a unitholder redeems a common unit, noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership is reduced and Mack-Cali Realty Corporation Stockholders’ equity is increased.

LTIP Units

On March 8, 2016, the Company granted 2016 LTIP Awards to senior management of the Company, including the General Partner’s executive officers. On April 4, 2017, the Company granted 2017 LTIP Awards to senior management of the Company, including the General Partner’s executive officers. On April 20, 2018, the Company granted 2018 LTIP Awards to senior management of the Company, including the General Partner’s executive officers. On March 22, 2019, the Company granted 2019 LTIP Awards to senior management of the Company, including the General Partner’s executive officers. All of the 2016 LTIP Awards, 2017 LTIP Awards, 2018 LTIP Awards and 2019 LTIP Awards are in the form of units in the Operating Partnership. See Note 15: Mack-Cali Realty Corporation Stockholders’ Equity and Mack-Cali Realty, L.P.’s Partners’ Capital – Long-Term Incentive Plan Awards.

LTIP Units are designed to qualify as “profits interests” in the Operating Partnership for federal income tax purposes. As a general

Table of Contents

matter, the profits interests characteristics of the LTIP Units mean that initially they will not be economically equivalent in value to a common unit. If and when events specified by applicable tax regulations occur, LTIP Units can over time increase in value up to the point where they are equivalent to common units on a one-for-one basis. After LTIP Units are fully vested, and to the extent the special tax rules applicable to profits interests have allowed them to become equivalent in value to common units, LTIP Units may be converted on a one-for-one basis into common units. Common units in turn have a one-for-one relationship in value with shares of the General Partner’s common stock, and are redeemable on a one-for-one basis for cash or, at the election of the Company, shares of the General Partner’s common stock.

AO LTIP Units (Appreciation-Only LTIP Units)

On March 13, 2019, the Company granted 625,000 AO LTIP Units to Mr. DeMarco pursuant to an AO long-term incentive plan award agreement. See Note 15: Mack-Cali Realty Corporation Stockholders’ Equity and Mack-Cali Realty, L.P.’s Partners’ Capital – AO LTIP Units (Appreciation-Only LTIP Units).

AO LTIP Units are a class of partnership interests in the Operating Partnership that are intended to qualify as “profit interests” for federal income tax purposes and generally only allow the recipient to realize value to the extent the fair market value of a share of Common Stock exceeds the threshold level set at the time the AO LTIP Units are granted, subject to any vesting conditions applicable to the award. The value of vested AO LTIP Units is realized through conversion of the AO LTIP Units into Common Units. The number of Common Units into which vested AO LTIP Units may be converted is determined based on the quotient of (i) the excess of the fair market value of the Common Stock on the conversion date over the threshold level designated at the time the AO LTIP Unit was granted, divided by (ii) the fair market value of the Common Stock on the conversion date. AO LTIP Units, once vested, have a finite term during which they may be converted into Common Units, not in excess of ten years from the grant date of the AO LTIP Units.

Noncontrolling Interests Ownership in Operating Partnership

As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the noncontrolling interests common unitholders owned 9.9 percent and 10.2 percent of the Operating Partnership, respectively.

NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS IN CONSOLIDATED JOINT VENTURES (applicable to General Partner and Operating Partnership)

The Company consolidates certain joint ventures in which it has ownership interests. Various entities and/or individuals hold noncontrolling interests in these ventures.

Consolidated Joint Venture Activity

On March 26, 2019, the Company, which held a 90 percent controlling interest in the joint venture, XS Hotel Urban Renewal LLC, which owns a 372-key hotel (164 keys in-service Residence Inn and 208 keys in-construction Marriott Envue) located in Weehawken, New Jersey, acquired its partner’s 10 percent interest for $5 million in cash. As a result of the acquisition, the Company increased its ownership of the property to 100 percent.

PARTICIPATION RIGHTS

The Company’s interests in certain real estate projects (two properties and one future development) each provide for the initial distributions of net cash flow solely to the Company, and thereafter, other parties have participation rights in 50 percent of the excess net cash flow remaining after the distribution to the Company of the aggregate amount equal to the sum of: (a) the Company’s capital contributions, plus (b) an IRR of 10 percent per annum.

17. SEGMENT REPORTING

The Company operates in two business segments: (i) commercial and other real estate and (ii) multi-family real estate and services. The Company provides leasing, property management, acquisition, development, construction and tenant-related services for its commercial and other real estate and multi-family real estate portfolio. The Company’s multi-family services business also provides similar services for third parties. The Company had no revenues from foreign countries recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements of Mack-Cali Realty Corporation and Mack-Cali Realty, L.P. and the notes thereto (collectively, the “Financial Statements”). Certain defined terms used herein have the meaning ascribed to them in the Financial Statements.

Executive Overview

Mack-Cali Realty Corporation, together with its subsidiaries, (collectively, the “General Partner”), including Mack-Cali Realty, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”), has been involved in all aspects of commercial real estate development, management and ownership for over 60 years and the General Partner has been a publicly traded real estate investment trust (“REIT”) since 1994.

The Operating Partnership conducts the business of providing leasing, management, acquisition, development, construction and tenant-related services for its General Partner. The Operating Partnership, through its operating divisions and subsidiaries, including the Mack-Cali property-owning partnerships and limited liability companies, is the entity through which all of the General Partner’s operations are conducted. Unless stated otherwise or the context requires, the “Company” refers to the General Partner and its subsidiaries, including the Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries.

As of September 30, 2019, the Company owned or had interests in 76 properties (collectively, the “Properties”), consisting of 45 office properties, totaling approximately 11.7 million square feet leased to approximately 400 commercial tenants, 24 multi-family rental properties containing 7,904 apartment units, four parking/retail properties, two hotels and a parcel of land leased to a third party. The Properties are located in the Northeast, some with adjacent, Company-controlled developable land sites able to accommodate up to approximately 2.0 million square feet of additional commercial space and approximately 10,000 apartment units.

The Company’s historical strategy has been to focus its operations, acquisition and development of office properties in high-barrier-to-entry markets and sub-markets where it believes it is, or can become, a significant and preferred owner and operator. In September 2015, the Company announced a strategic initiative to transform into a more concentrated owner of New Jersey Hudson River waterfront and transit-oriented office properties and a regional owner of luxury multi-family residential properties. As part of this plan, the Company has sold or has contracted to sell multiple real estate assets, primarily commercial office, which it believes do not meet its long-term goals, and has invested in other real estate assets that the Company believes meet the Company’s long-term goals.

As an owner of real estate, almost all of the Company’s earnings and cash flow are derived from rental revenue received pursuant to leased space at the Properties. Key factors that affect the Company’s business and financial results include the following:

the general economic climate;

the occupancy rates of the Properties;

rental rates on new or renewed leases;

tenant improvement and leasing costs incurred to obtain and retain tenants;

the extent of early lease terminations;

the value of our office properties and the cash flow from the sale of such properties;

operating expenses;

anticipated acquisition and development costs for office and multi-family rental properties and the revenues and earnings from these properties;

cost of capital; and

the extent of acquisitions, development and sales of real estate, including the execution of the Company’s current strategic initiative.

Any negative effects of the above key factors could potentially cause a deterioration in the Company’s revenue and/or earnings. Such negative effects could include: (1) failure to renew or execute new leases as current leases expire; (2) failure to renew or execute new leases with rental terms at or above the terms of in-place leases; and (3) tenant defaults.

A failure to renew or execute new leases as current leases expire or to execute new leases with rental terms at or above the terms of in-place leases may be affected by several factors such as: (1) the local economic climate, which may be adversely impacted by business layoffs or downsizing, industry slowdowns, changing demographics and other factors; and (2) local real estate conditions, such as oversupply of the Company’s product types or competition within the market.

Of the Company’s core office markets, most continue to show signs of rental rate improvement, while the lease percentage has declined or stabilized. The percentage leased in the Company’s consolidated portfolio of stabilized core operating commercial properties aggregating 11.2 million, 11.2 million and 14.5 million square feet at September 30, 2019, June 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018, respectively, was 80.8 percent leased at September 30, 2019 as compared to 79.8 percent leased at June 30, 2019 and 84.2 percent leased at September 30, 2018 (after adjusting for properties identified as non-core at the time). Percentage leased includes all leases in effect as of the period end date, some of which have commencement dates in the future and leases that expire at the period end date. Leases that expired at September 30, 2019, June 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018 aggregate 18,825, 18,432 and 9,771 square feet, respectively, or 0.2, 0.2 and 0.1 percentage of the net rentable square footage, respectively. Rental rates (including escalations) on the Company’s core commercial space that was renewed (based on first rents payable) during the three months ended September 30, 2019 (on 10,742 square feet of renewals) increased an average of 11.4 percent compared to rates that were in effect under the prior leases, as compared to a 33.7 percent increase during the three months ended September 30, 2018 (on 378,909 square feet of renewals). Estimated lease costs for the renewed leases during the three months ended September 30, 2019 averaged $5.01 per square foot per year for a weighted average lease term of 4.1 years, and estimated lease costs for the renewed leases during the three months ended September 30, 2018 averaged $4.93 per square foot per year for a weighted average lease term of 5.5 years. The Company believes that vacancy rates at its commercial properties have reached a bottom as the majority of the known move-outs at its waterfront portfolio have already occurred, and commercial rental rates may increase in some of its markets in 2019. As of September 30, 2019, commercial leases which comprise approximately 1.2 and 6.5 percent of the Company’s annualized base rent are scheduled to expire during the years ending December 31, 2019 and 2020, respectively. With the positive rental rate results the Company has achieved in most of its markets recently, the Company believes that rental rates on new leases will generally be, on average, not lower than rates currently being paid. If these recent leasing results do not prove to be sustaining through the remainder of 2019, the Company may receive less revenue from the same space.

During 2017, Moody’s downgraded its investment grade rating on the Company’s senior unsecured debt to sub-investment grade and during 2018, Standard & Poor’s lowered its investment grade rating on the Company’s senior unsecured debt to sub-investment grade. Amongst other things, such downgrade would have increased the interest rate on outstanding borrowings under the Company’s current $600 million unsecured revolving credit facility (which was amended in January 2017) from LIBOR plus 120 basis points to LIBOR plus 155 basis points and the annual credit facility fee it pays would have increased from 25 to 30 basis points. Additionally, any such downgrade would have increased the current interest rate on each of the Company’s 2016 Term Loan and 2017 Term Loan from LIBOR plus 140 basis points to LIBOR plus 185 points. Effective March 6, 2018, the Company elected to utilize the leverage grid pricing available under the unsecured revolving credit facility and both unsecured term loans. This resulted in an interest rate of LIBOR plus 130 basis points for the Company’s unsecured revolving credit facility and 25 basis points for the facility fee and LIBOR plus 155 basis points for both unsecured term loans at the Company’s current total leverage ratio. In addition, a downgrade in its ratings to sub-investment grade would result in higher interest rates on senior unsecured debt that the Company may issue in the future as compared to issuing such debt with investment grade ratings.

Consolidation

On January 31, 2019, the Company, which held a 24.27 percent subordinated interest in the unconsolidated joint venture, Marbella Tower Urban Renewal Associates South LLC, a 311-unit multi-family operating property located in Jersey City, New Jersey, acquired its equity partner’s 50 percent preferred controlling interest for $77.5 million in cash. The property was subject to a mortgage loan that had a principal balance of $74.7 million. The cash portion of the acquisition was funded primarily through borrowings under the Company’s unsecured revolving credit facility. Concurrently with the closing, the joint venture repaid in full the property’s $74.7 million mortgage loan and obtained a new loan collateralized by the property in the amount of $117 million, which bears interest at 4.2 percent and matures in August 2026. The Company received $43.3 million in distribution from the loan proceeds which was used to acquire the equity partner’s 50 percent interest. As the result of the acquisition, the Company increased its ownership of the property from a 24.27 percent subordinated interest to a 74.27 percent controlling interest. In accordance with ASC 810, Consolidation, the Company evaluated the acquisition and determined that the entity meets the criteria of a VIE. As such, the Company consolidated the asset upon acquisition and accordingly, remeasured its equity interests, as required by the FASB’s consolidation guidance, at fair value (based upon the income approach using current rates and market cap rates and discount rates). As a result, the Company recorded a gain on change of control of interests of $13.8 million (a non-cash item) in the nine months ended September 30, 2019, in which the Company accounted for the transaction as a VIE that is not a business in accordance with ASC 810-10-30-4. Additional non-cash items included in the acquisition were the Company’s carrying value of its interest in the joint venture of $15.3 million and the noncontrolling interest’s fair value of $13.7 million. See Note 9: Mortgages, Loans Payable and Other Obligations.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include all accounts of the Company, its majority-owned and/or controlled subsidiaries, which consist principally of the Operating Partnership and variable interest entities for which the Company has determined itself to be the primary beneficiary, if any. See Note 2: Significant Accounting Policies – to the Financial Statements, for the Company’s treatment of unconsolidated joint venture interests. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810, Consolidation, provides guidance on the identification of entities for which control is achieved through means other than voting rights (“variable interest entities” or “VIEs”) and the determination of which business enterprise, if any, should consolidate the VIEs. Generally, the consideration of whether an entity is a VIE applies when either: (1) the equity investors (if any) lack (i) the ability to make decisions about the entity's activities through voting or similar rights, (ii) the obligation to absorb the expected losses of the entity, or (iii) the right to receive the expected residual returns of the entity; (2) the equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance that entity’s activities without additional subordinated financial support; or (3) the equity investors have voting rights that are not proportionate to their economic interests and substantially all of the activities of the entity involve or are conducted on behalf of an investor with a disproportionately small voting interest. The Company consolidates VIEs in which it is considered to be the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary is defined by the entity having both of the following characteristics: (1) the power to direct the activities that, when taken together, most significantly impact the variable interest entity’s performance: and (2) the obligation to absorb losses and right to receive the returns from the VIE that would be significant to the VIE.

The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with GAAP. 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. These estimates and assumptions are based on management’s historical experience that are believed to be reasonable at the time. However, because future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty, the determination of estimates requires the exercise of judgment. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts in order to conform with current period presentation. The Company’s critical accounting policies are those which require assumptions to be made about matters that are highly uncertain. Different estimates could have a material effect on the Company’s financial results. Judgments and uncertainties affecting the application of these policies and estimates may result in materially different amounts being reported under different conditions and circumstances.

Rental Property

Rental properties are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Costs directly related to the acquisition, development and construction of rental properties are capitalized. Acquisition-related costs were expensed as incurred for all real estate acquisitions classified as business combinations, which were substantially all of our operating property acquisitions through December 31, 2016. The Company adopted FASB guidance Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-01 on January 1, 2017, which revises the definition of a business and is expected to result in more transactions to be accounted for as asset acquisitions and significantly limit transactions that would be accounted for as business combinations. Where an acquisition has been determined to be an asset acquisition, acquisition-related costs are capitalized. Capitalized development and construction costs include pre-construction costs essential to the development of the property, development and construction costs, interest, property taxes, insurance, salaries and other project costs incurred during the period of development. Interest capitalized by the Company for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 was $14.3 million and $21.3 million, respectively. Ordinary repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred; major replacements and betterments, which improve or extend the life of the asset, are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Fully-depreciated assets are removed from the accounts.

Table of Contents

units of each portion, and capitalizes only those costs associated with the portion under construction.

Properties are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The estimated useful lives are as follows:


Leasehold interests	Remaining lease term
Buildings and improvements	5 to 40 years
Tenant improvements	The shorter of the term of the
	related lease or useful life
Furniture, fixtures and equipment	5 to 10 years

Upon acquisition of rental property, the Company estimates the fair value of acquired tangible assets, consisting of land, building and improvements, and identified intangible assets and liabilities assumed, generally consisting of the fair value of (i) above and below market leases, (ii) in-place leases and (iii) tenant relationships. The Company allocates the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their relative fair values. The Company records goodwill or a gain on bargain purchase (if any) if the net assets acquired/liabilities assumed differ from the purchase consideration of a business transaction. In estimating the fair value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired, the Company considers information obtained about each property as a result of its due diligence and marketing and leasing activities, and utilizes various valuation methods, such as estimated cash flow projections utilizing appropriate discount and capitalization rates, estimates of replacement costs net of depreciation, and available market information. The fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired property considers the value of the property as if it were vacant.

Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures

Revenue Recognition

Above-market and below-market lease values for acquired properties are initially recorded based on the present value (using a discount rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to each in-place lease and (ii) management’s estimate of fair market lease rates for each corresponding in-place lease, measured over a period equal to the remaining term of the lease for above-market leases and the remaining initial term plus the term of any below-market fixed-rate renewal options for below-market leases. The capitalized above-market lease values for acquired properties are amortized as a reduction of base rental revenue over the remaining terms of the respective leases, and the capitalized below-market lease values are amortized as an increase to revenue from leases over the remaining initial terms plus the terms of any below-market fixed-rate renewal options of the respective leases.

Revenue from leases. Revenue from leases for the Same-Store Properties increased $1.0 million, or 0.8 percent, for 2019 as compared to 2018, due primarily to a $0.20 increase in average office annual rents per square foot to $31.72 for 2019 as compared to $31.52 for 2018.

Parking income. Parking income for the Same-Store Properties increased $0.5 million, or 8.7 percent, for 2019 as compared to 2018, due primarily to increased usage in 2019 at residential and commercial properties.

Hotel income. The Company recognized hotel income of $3.3 million in 2019 from hotel properties, which commenced operations at the end of 2018 and mid 2019.

Other income. Other income for the Same-Store Properties increased $0.6 million, or 24.4 percent, for 2019 as compared to 2018, due primarily to a net increase in several small income items in 2019, as compared to 2018.

Real estate taxes.

Equity in earnings (loss) of unconsolidated joint ventures. Equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures increased $0.6 million, or 83.6 percent, for 2019 as compared to 2018. This increase was primarily due to an increase of $0.8 million at the Urby at Harborside venture.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Liquidity

Overview

Historically, rental revenue has been the Company’s principal source of funds to pay operating expenses, debt service, capital expenditures and dividends, excluding non-recurring capital expenditures. To the extent that the Company’s cash flow from operating activities is insufficient to finance its non-recurring capital expenditures such as property acquisitions, development and construction costs and other capital expenditures, the Company has and expects to continue to finance such activities through borrowings under its

Table of Contents

unsecured revolving credit facility, other debt and equity financings, proceeds from the sale of properties and joint venture capital.

The Company expects to meet its short-term liquidity requirements generally through its working capital, which may include proceeds from the sales of office properties, net cash provided by operating activities and draw from its unsecured revolving credit facility. The Company frequently examines potential property acquisitions and development projects and, at any given time, one or more of such acquisitions or development projects may be under consideration. Accordingly, the ability to fund property acquisitions and development projects is a major part of the Company’s financing requirements. The Company expects to meet its financing requirements through funds generated from operating activities, to the extent available, proceeds from property sales, joint venture capital, long-term and short-term borrowings (including draws on the Company’s unsecured revolving credit facility) and the issuance of additional debt and/or equity securities.

Repositioning of the Company’s Portfolio

As described earlier relative to its current strategic initiative, the Company’s management has been reviewing its portfolio and identifying opportunities to divest of non-core office properties that no longer meet its long-term strategy, have reached their potential, are less efficient to operate, or when market conditions are favorable to be sold at attractive prices. The Company anticipates continuing to redeploy the proceeds from non-core rental property sales in the near-term to acquire office or multi-family rental properties, enhance amenities and infrastructure at existing office properties, develop, redevelop and acquire multi-family rental properties, as well as reposition certain office properties into multi-family residential and/or mixed use properties, in its core Northeast sub-markets.

Construction Projects

REIT Restrictions

To maintain its qualification as a REIT under the IRS Code, the General Partner must make annual distributions to its stockholders of at least 90 percent of its REIT taxable income, determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction and by excluding net capital gains. Moreover, the General Partner intends to continue to make regular quarterly distributions to its common stockholders. Based upon the most recently paid common stock dividend rate of $0.20 per common share, in the aggregate, such distributions would equal approximately $72.4 million ($81.9 million, including units in the Operating Partnership held by parties other than the General Partner) on an annualized basis. However, any such distributions, whether for federal income tax purposes or otherwise, would be paid out of available cash, including borrowings and other sources, after meeting operating requirements, preferred stock dividends and distributions, and scheduled debt service on the Company’s debt. If and to the extent the Company retains and does not distribute any net capital gains, the General Partner will be required to pay federal, state and local taxes on such net capital gains at the rate applicable to capital gains of a corporation.

Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loans

On January 25, 2017, the Company entered into an amended revolving credit facility and new term loan agreement (“2017 Credit Agreement”) with a group of 13 lenders. Pursuant to the 2017 Credit Agreement, the Company refinanced its existing $600 million unsecured revolving credit facility (“2017 Credit Facility”) and entered into a new $325 million unsecured term loan facility (“2017 Term Loan”). Effective March 6, 2018, the Company elected to determine its interest rate under the 2017 Credit Agreement and under the 2017 Term Loan using the defined leverage ratio option, resulting in an interest rate of LIBOR plus 130 basis points and LIBOR plus 155 basis points, respectively.

The terms of the 2017 Credit Facility include: (1) a four-year term ending in January 2021, with two six-month extension options; (2) revolving credit loans may be made to the Company in an aggregate principal amount of up to $600 million (subject to increase as discussed below), with a sublimit under the 2017 Credit Facility for the issuance of letters of credit in an amount not to exceed $60 million (subject to increase as discussed below); (3) an interest rate based on the Operating Partnership’s unsecured debt ratings from Moody’s or S&P, or, at the Operating Partnership’s option, if it no longer maintains a debt rating from Moody’s or S&P or such debt ratings fall below Baa3 and BBB-, based on a defined leverage ratio; and (4) a facility fee, currently 25 basis points, payable quarterly based on the Operating Partnership’s unsecured debt ratings from Moody’s or S&P, or, at the Operating Partnership’s option, if it no longer maintains a debt rating from Moody’s or S&P or such debt ratings fall below Baa3 and BBB-, based on a defined leverage ratio.

After electing to use the defined leverage ratio to determine the interest rate, the interest rate under the 2017 Credit Facility is currently based on the following total leverage ratio grid:


		Interest Rate -
		Applicable
	Interest Rate -	Basis Points
	Applicable	Above LIBOR for
	Basis Points	Alternate Base	Facility Fee
Total Leverage Ratio	Above LIBOR	Rate Loans	Basis Points

On March 29, 2017, the Company executed interest rate swap arrangements to fix LIBOR with an aggregate average rate of 1.6473% for the swaps and a current aggregate fixed rate of 3.0473% for borrowings under the 2017 Term Loan.

After electing to use the defined leverage ratio to determine the interest rate, the interest rate under the 2017 Term Loan is currently based on the following total leverage ratio grid:

In January 2016, the Company obtained a $350 million unsecured term loan (“2016 Term Loan”), which matures in January 2019 with two one-year extension options. On January 7, 2019, the Company exercised the first one-year extension option with the payment of an extension fee of $0.5 million, which extended the maturity of the 2016 Term Loan to January 2020. The interest rate for the term loan is based on the Operating Partnership’s unsecured debt ratings, or, at the Company's option, a defined leverage ratio. Effective March 6, 2018, the Company elected to determine its interest rate under the 2016 Term Loan using the defined leverage ratio option, resulting in an interest rate of LIBOR plus 155 basis points. The Company entered into interest rate swap arrangements to fix LIBOR for the duration of the term loan. Including costs, the current all-in fixed rate is 3.13 percent. The proceeds from the loan were used primarily to repay outstanding borrowings on the Company’s then existing unsecured revolving credit facility and to repay $200 million senior unsecured notes that matured on January 15, 2016.

On March 29, 2019, the Company prepaid $90 million on the 2016 Term Loan (using a portion of the cash sales proceeds from the Flex portfolio sale completed on that date) and recorded a gain of $1.3 million due to the early termination of part of the interest rate swap arrangements, as a result of the debt prepayment. On June 24, 2019, the Company prepaid $160 million on the 2016 Term Loan (primarily using the proceeds from a mortgage loan financing obtained on the recently acquired Soho Lofts Apartments) and recorded an additional gain of $0.6 million due to the early termination of part of the interest rate swap arrangements as a result of the debt prepayment. On August 5, 2019, the Company prepaid $100 million balance outstanding on the 2016 Term Loan (using a portion of the proceeds from a new mortgage loan collateralized by an office building located at 111 River Street received on that date) and recorded a gain of $164,000 due to the early termination of part of the interest rate swap arrangements, as a result of the debt prepayment. Unamortized deferred financing costs and fees amounting to $242,000 pertaining to the 2016 Term Loan were written off on August 5, 2019.

After electing to use the defined leverage ratio to determine interest rate, the interest rate under the 2016 Term Loan is currently based on the following total leverage ratio grid:


		Interest Rate -
		Applicable Basis
Total Leverage Ratio		Points above LIBOR
<45%		145.0
≥45% and <50% (current ratio)		155.0
≥50% and <55%		165.0
≥55%		195.0

Prior to the election to use the defined leverage ratio option, the interest rate on the 2016 Term Loan was based upon the Operating Partnership’s unsecured debt ratings, as follows:

No ratings or less than BBB-/Baa3		185.0

All other terms and conditions of the 2017 Credit Agreement and the 2016 Term Loan remain unchanged.

Mortgages, Loans Payable and Other Obligations

The Company has other mortgages, loans payable and other obligations which consist of various loans collateralized by certain of the Company’s rental properties. Payments on mortgages, loans payable and other obligations are generally due in monthly installments of principal and interest, or interest only.

Debt Strategy

The Company does not intend to reserve funds to retire the Company’s senior unsecured notes, outstanding borrowings under its unsecured revolving credit facility, its unsecured term loans, or its mortgages, loans payable and other obligations upon maturity. Instead, the Company will seek to refinance such debt at maturity or retire such debt through the issuance of additional equity or debt securities on or before the applicable maturity dates. If it cannot raise sufficient proceeds to retire the maturing debt, the Company may draw on its revolving credit facility to retire the maturing indebtedness, which would reduce the future availability of funds under such facility. As of October 28, 2019, the Company had outstanding borrowings of $51 million under its unsecured revolving credit facility. The Company is reviewing various financing and refinancing options, including the redemption or purchase of the Operating Partnership’s senior unsecured notes in public tender offers or privately-negotiated transactions, the issuance of additional, or exchange of current, unsecured debt of the Operating Partnership or common and preferred stock of the General Partner, and/or obtaining additional mortgage debt of the Operating Partnership, some or all of which may be completed in 2019. The Company currently anticipates that its available cash and cash equivalents, cash flows from operating activities and proceeds from the sale of office

Table of Contents

properties, together with cash available from borrowings and other sources, will be adequate to meet the Company’s capital and liquidity needs in the short term. However, if these sources of funds are insufficient or unavailable, due to current economic conditions or otherwise, or if capital needs to fund acquisition and development opportunities in the multi-family rental sector arise, the Company’s ability to make the expected distributions discussed in “REIT Restrictions” above may be adversely affected.

Share/Unit Repurchase Program

The General Partner has a share repurchase program which was renewed and authorized by its Board of Directors in September 2012 to purchase up to $150 million of the General Partner’s outstanding common stock (“Repurchase Program”), which it may repurchase from time to time in open market transactions at prevailing prices or through privately negotiated transactions. As of September 30, 2019, the General Partner has a remaining authorization under the Repurchase Program of $139 million. There were no common stock repurchases in 2018 and through October 28, 2019.

Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan

The Company has a Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan (the “DRIP”) which commenced in March 1999 under which approximately 5.5 million shares of the General Partner’s common stock have been reserved for future issuance. The DRIP provides for automatic reinvestment of all or a portion of a participant’s dividends from the General Partner’s shares of common stock. The DRIP also permits participants to make optional cash investments up to $5,000 a month without restriction and, if the Company waives this limit, for additional amounts subject to certain restrictions and other conditions set forth in the DRIP prospectus filed as part of the Company’s effective registration statement on Form S-3 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for the approximately 5.5 million shares of the General Partner’s common stock reserved for issuance under the DRIP.

Shelf Registration Statements

The General Partner has an effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 filed with the SEC for an aggregate amount of $0.0 billion in common stock, preferred stock, depositary shares, and/or warrants of the General Partner, under which no securities have been sold as of October 28, 2019.

The General Partner and the Operating Partnership also have an effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 filed with the SEC for an aggregate amount of $2.5 billion in common stock, preferred stock, depositary shares and guarantees of the General Partner and debt securities of the Operating Partnership, under which no securities have been sold as of October 28, 2019.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Unconsolidated Joint Venture Debt

The debt of the Company’s unconsolidated joint ventures generally provides for recourse to the Company for customary matters such as intentional misuse of funds, environmental conditions and material misrepresentations. The Company has agreed to guarantee repayment of a portion of the debt of its unconsolidated joint ventures. Such debt has a total facility amount of $318 million of which the Company has agreed to guarantee up to $34.6 million. As of September 30, 2019, the outstanding balance of such debt totaled $220.4 million of which $24.8 million was guaranteed by the Company.

The Company’s off-balance sheet arrangements are further discussed in Note 4: Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures to the Financial Statements.

(c)Includes $115 million pertaining to various mortgages with one-year extension options.

Funds from Operations

Funds from operations (“FFO”) (available to common stock and unit holders) is defined as net income (loss) before noncontrolling interests in Operating Partnership, computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains or losses from depreciable rental property transactions (including both acquisitions and dispositions), and impairments related to depreciable rental property, plus real estate-related depreciation and amortization. The Company believes that FFO is helpful to investors as one of several measures of the performance of an equity REIT. The Company further believes that as FFO excludes the effect of depreciation, gains (or losses) from property transactions and impairments related to depreciable rental property (all of which are based on historical costs which may be of limited relevance in evaluating current performance), FFO can facilitate comparison of operating performance between equity REITs.

FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income available to common shareholders as an indication of the Company’s performance or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. FFO presented herein is not necessarily comparable to FFO presented by other real estate companies due to the fact that not all real estate companies use the same definition. However, the Company’s FFO is comparable to the FFO of real estate companies that use the current definition of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”).

As the Company considers its primary earnings measure, net income available to common shareholders, as defined by GAAP, to be the most comparable earnings measure to FFO, the following table presents a reconciliation of net income available to common shareholders to FFO, as calculated in accordance with NAREIT’s current definition, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 (in thousands):

(a)Includes the Company’s share from unconsolidated joint ventures, and adjustments for noncontrolling interests, $3,655 and $4,155 the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $9,341 and $13,873 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Excludes non-real estate-related depreciation and amortization of $611 and $535 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $1,661 and $1,582 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Inflation

The Company’s leases with the majority of its commercial 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. The Company believes that inflation did not materially impact the Company’s results of operations and financial condition for the periods presented.

Item 3. Quantitative And Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Market risk is the exposure to loss resulting from changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices and equity prices. In pursuing its business plan, the primary market risk to which the Company is exposed is interest rate risk. Changes in the general level of interest rates prevailing in the financial markets may affect the spread between the Company’s yield on invested assets and cost of funds and, in turn, its ability to make distributions or payments to its investors.

Approximately $2.8 billion of the Company’s long-term debt as of September 30, 2019 bears interest at fixed rates and therefore the fair value of these instruments is affected by changes in market interest rates. The following table presents principal cash flows (in thousands) based upon maturity dates of the debt obligations and the related weighted-average interest rates by expected maturity dates for the fixed rate debt. The interest rates on the Company’s variable rate debt as of September 30, 2019 ranged from LIBOR plus 130 basis points to LIBOR plus 450 basis points. Assuming interest-rate swaps and caps are not in effect, if market rates of interest on the Company’s variable rate debt increased or decreased by 100 basis points, then the increase or decrease in interest costs on the Company’s variable rate debt would be approximately $3.4 million annually and the increase or decrease in the fair value of the Company’s fixed rate debt as of September 30, 2019 would be approximately $151.0 million.

While the Company has not experienced any significant credit losses, in the event of a significant rising interest rate environment and/or economic downturn, defaults could increase and result in losses to the Company which could adversely affect its operating results and liquidity.
