Explanation of Responses:

* If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 4(b)(v).
** Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations. See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15 U.S.C. 78ff(a).
(1) The Series B Preferred Units of limited partnership interest (the "Series B Preferred Units") in Mack-Cali Realty, L.P. (the "Operating Partnership"), of which Mack-Cali Realty Corporation (the "Corporation") is the general partner, were redeemed by the Operating Partnership and converted into common units of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership (the "Common Units").
(2) Each Series B Preferred Unit was convertible at the election of (i) the holder at any time and (ii) the Operating Partnership on or after June 13, 2005, into the number of Common Units equal to (x) $1,000, divided by (y) $34.65. Based upon this conversion formula, each outstanding Series B Preferred Unit was converted into approximately 28.86 Common Units. The right to convert the Series B Preferred Units was not subject to expiration.
(3) The Common Units are redeemable by the holders of Common Units at their option, subject to certain restrictions, on the basis of one Common Unit for either one share of the Corporation's common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), or cash equal to the fair market value of a share of Common Stock at the time of the redemption. The Corporation has the option to deliver shares of Common Stock in exchange for all or any portion of the cash requested.
(4) Excludes the following securities directly beneficially owned by the reporting person: (i) 4,921.883 phantom stock units issued to the reporting person pursuant to the Mack-Cali Realty Corporation Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors, which units are to be settled 100% in the Corporation's Common Stock upon the termination of the reporting person's service on the Board of Directors of the Corporation or upon a change in control of the Corporation and (ii) 225,693 Common Units. Also excludes the following indirectly held securities: (i) 2,221,420.73 Common Units held by a grantor retained annuity trust and 833,769.02 Common Units held by other trusts (including the 2,110,360.75 as converted Common Units that are reported in Table II of this Form 4); and (ii) options to purchase 28,000 shares of common stock. Pursuant to Rule 13d-4, the reporting person disclaims beneficial ownership of all indirectly held securities.
