Item 1.01  Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

        On January 25, 2005, Mack-Cali Realty Corporation (the “Company”), through its operating partnership, Mack-Cali Realty, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”), completed the sale of $150 million of senior unsecured notes (the “Notes”). The Operating Partnership received net proceeds of approximately $148.1 million from the sale of the Notes. The Notes were priced on January 12, 2005, mature on January 15, 2015 and bear interest at 5.125%, with interest payable semiannually on January 15 and July 15 of each year outstanding, beginning July 15, 2005. The Operating Partnership used the net proceeds from the sale of the Notes to reduce outstanding borrowings under its $600 million unsecured revolving credit facility and for general corporate purposes. The Operating Partnership may redeem the Notes at any time upon payment of a make-whole amount. 

        The Notes are being issued under an indenture dated as of March 16, 1999 (the “Indenture”) by and among the Operating Partnership, as issuer, the Company, as guarantor, and Wilmington Trust Company, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as supplemented by supplemental indenture no. 10 dated as of January 25, 2005 (the “Supplemental Indenture”) by and between the Operating Partnership and the Trustee. The material terms of the Indenture, as amended by the Supplemental Indenture, provide for the issuance of the Notes on the terms set forth in the preceding paragraph and include certain representations, warranties and covenants, conditions to closing and other obligations of the Company, the Operating Partnership and the Trustee that are customary in an underwritten public offering, including those terms and conditions made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended.

        In connection with the foregoing, the Company hereby files the following documents:
