PROXY STATEMENT

General Information

        This Proxy Statement is furnished to stockholders of Mack-Cali Realty Corporation, a Maryland corporation (the "Company"), in connection with the solicitation by the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board of Directors") of proxies in the accompanying form for use in voting at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders of the Company (the "Annual Meeting") to be held on Tuesday, May 13, 2003, at 2:00 p.m., local time, at the Hyatt Regency Jersey City on the Hudson, Harborside Financial Center, 2 Exchange Place, Jersey City, New Jersey 07302, and any adjournment or postponement thereof.

        This Proxy Statement, the Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders and the accompanying proxy card are first being mailed to the Company's stockholders on or about April 9, 2003.

Solicitation and Voting Procedures

        Solicitation.    The solicitation of proxies will be conducted by mail, and the Company will bear all attendant costs. These costs will include the expense of preparing and mailing proxy materials for the Annual Meeting and reimbursements paid to brokerage firms and others for their expenses incurred in forwarding solicitation material regarding the Annual Meeting to beneficial owners of the Company's common stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Common Stock"). The Company intends to use the services of MacKenzie Partners, Inc., 105 Madison Avenue, 14th Floor, New York, New York 10016, in soliciting proxies and, in such event, the Company expects to pay an amount not to exceed $10,000, plus out-of-pocket expenses, for such services. The Company may conduct further solicitation personally, telephonically, electronically or by facsimile through its officers, directors and regular employees, none of whom would receive additional compensation for assisting with the solicitation.

        Householding of Proxy Materials.    In accordance with a notice sent previously to beneficial owners holding shares in street name (for example, through a bank, broker or other holder of record) and who share a single address with other similar holders, only one Annual Report and Proxy Statement is being sent to that address unless contrary instructions were received from any stockholder at that address. This practice, known as "householding," is designed to reduce printing and postage costs. Any of such beneficial owners may discontinue householding by writing to the address or calling the telephone number provided for such purpose by their holder of record. Any such stockholder may also request prompt delivery of a copy of the Annual Report or Proxy Statement by contacting the Company at (908) 272-8000 or by writing to Roger W. Thomas, Secretary, Mack-Cali Realty Corporation, 11 Commerce Drive, Cranford, New Jersey 07016. Other beneficial owners holding shares in street name may be able to initiate householding if their holder of record has chosen to offer such service, by following the instructions provided by the record holder.

        Voting.    Stockholders of record may authorize the proxies named in the enclosed proxy card to vote their shares of Common Stock in the following manner:

1


        Revocability of Proxies.    Any proxy given pursuant to this solicitation may be revoked by the person giving it at any time before it is exercised in the same manner in which it was given or by delivering to Roger W. Thomas, Mack-Cali Realty Corporation, 11 Commerce Drive, Cranford, New Jersey 07016, a written notice of revocation or a properly executed proxy bearing a later date, or by attending the Annual Meeting and giving notice of your intention to vote in person.

        Voting Procedure.    The presence at the Annual Meeting of a majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company, represented either in person or by proxy, will constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the Annual Meeting. The close of business on April 4, 2003 has been fixed as the record date (the "Record Date") for determining the holders of shares of Common Stock entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting. Each share of Common Stock outstanding on the Record Date is entitled to one vote on all matters. As of the Record Date, there were 57,627,429 shares of Common Stock outstanding. Under Maryland law, stockholders will not have appraisal or similar rights in connection with any proposal set forth in this Proxy Statement.

        Stockholder votes will be tabulated by the persons appointed by the Board of Directors to act as inspectors of election for the Annual Meeting. The New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") permits member organizations to give proxies, whether or not instructions have been received from beneficial owners, to vote as to the election of directors and also on matters of the type contained in Proposal Nos. 2 and 3. Shares represented by a properly executed and delivered proxy will be voted at the Annual Meeting and, when instructions have been given by the stockholder, will be voted in accordance with those instructions. If no instructions are given, the shares will be voted FOR the election of each of the four nominees for director named below and FOR Proposal Nos. 2 and 3. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the election of directors or Proposal No. 2, but will have the same effect as a negative vote on Proposal No. 3 (unless, with respect to such Proposal No. 3, the total votes cast on the Proposal represent more than 50% in interest of all securities entitled to vote on the Proposal, in which event abstentions and broker non-votes will not have any effect on the result of the vote on Proposal No. 3). Abstentions and broker non-votes will each be counted as present for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum.

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions

        Cali Agreement.    On June 27, 2000, both Brant Cali and John R. Cali resigned their positions as officers of the Company, and Brant Cali resigned as a director of the Company. John R. Cali was appointed to the Board of Directors of the Company to take the seat previously held by Brant Cali. As required by Brant Cali and John R. Cali's former employment agreements with the Company, among other things, the Company will permit Brant Cali and John R. Cali (and their dependents) to participate in the health and disability insurance programs of the Company for a period of four years from such date.

        For as long as members of the Cali family (or entities wholly owned by the Cali family, Cali family trusts or the heirs of any member of the Cali Group) maintain at least the "Minimum Percentage" (as defined below) of the Cali family's aggregate equity position in the Units in the Operating Partnership (measured exactly as it existed on June 27, 2000), the Company has agreed to nominate one designee of the Cali family for election to the Board of Directors at each of the Annual Meeting and the Company's 2006 annual meeting of stockholders, provided such person shall be subject to the prior approval of the Board of Directors, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. In compliance with this requirement, the Company has nominated John R. Cali for re-election at the Annual Meeting. "Minimum Percentage" shall mean (i) 90% or (ii) 87.5%, if the Cali family's aggregate equity position in the Units in the Operating Partnership is reduced below 90% solely as a result of sales of Units by the Operating Partnership to the Company.

        For as long as (i) the Cali family is represented on the Board of Directors, (ii) the Cali family (or entities wholly owned by the Cali family, Cali family trusts, or the heirs of any member of the Cali Group) maintains at least the Minimum Percentage of the Cali family's aggregate equity position in the Units of the Operating Partnership (measured exactly as it existed on June 27, 2000) and (iii) the Board of Directors determines in its reasonable discretion to continue the Executive Committee of the Board of Directors, the Cali family shall be entitled to designate John R.

12



approval may not be unreasonably withheld. John R. Cali currently serves on the Executive Committee of the Board of Directors.

        Pursuant to the Cali Agreement, John J. Cali serves as a consultant to the Company and is paid an annual salary of $150,000 until June 27, 2003. Mr. Cali has resigned from the Board of Directors, effective immediately following the Annual Meeting, and will become, at that time, a member of the Company's Advisory Board. Mr. Cali will be paid $50,000 in connection with his service as a consultant to the Advisory Board during his first year as a member of the Advisory Board. In connection with Mr. Cali's resignation, the Board of Directors has reduced the size of the Board of Directors from thirteen to twelve members and the number of Class III directors from five to four.

        Mack Agreement.    In connection with the Company's combination with the Mack organization in December 1997, William L. Mack, Mitchell E. Hersh and Earle I. Mack were appointed to the Company's Board of Directors. If any of Messrs. Mack or Mr. Hersh shall withdraw from the Board of Directors for any reason during their terms, the members of the Mack Group are entitled to designate their successors. In addition, for as long as members of the Mack Group maintain at least the "Mack Significant Interest" (as defined below), the Mack Group has the right to re-nominate, and the Company will support, Messrs. Mack and Hersh (or their successors) for re-election to the Board of Directors for successive three-year terms upon the expiration of each three-year term. "Mack Significant Interest" shall mean legal and beneficial ownership, in the aggregate, of not less than 3,174,603 shares of Common Stock and/or Units (on a fully converted basis) by Earle Mack, David Mack, Frederic Mack and William Mack, subject to certain restrictions and to adjustment for stock splits and other customary and similar stock dilutions.

        Robert Martin Agreement.    In connection with the Company's acquisition of 65 Class A properties from Robert Martin in January 1997, the Company granted Robert Martin the right to designate one RM Board Seat for six years, ending at the Annual Meeting. Robert Martin designated Martin S. Berger and Robert F.

Mr. Berger served as a member of the Board of Directors of the Company from December 1, 1998 until March 6, 2001, at which time Mr. Berger resigned and Mr. Weinberg was appointed to serve in such capacity until the Annual Meeting. Since the Company is electing to nominate for re-election to its Board of Directors a designee of Robert Martin at the Annual Meeting, Mr. Berger and Mr. Weinberg have agreed that Mr. Berger will be so nominated and the seat will be rotated among Mr. Berger and Mr. Weinberg every 12 months commencing on the 12 month anniversary of the Annual Meeting. When not serving on the Board of Directors, Mr. Weinberg or Mr. Berger, as appropriate, will serve as a member of the Company's Advisory Board. Upon the death of Mr. Berger or Mr. Weinberg, the surviving person shall solely fill the remainder of the term of the RM Board Seat.

        Tax Protection Agreements.    The Company may not dispose of or distribute certain of its properties, currently comprising 141 properties with an aggregate net book value of approximately $1.8 billion (as of December 31, 2002), which were originally contributed by members of either the Mack Group (which includes William L. Mack, director; Earle I. Mack, director; and Mitchell E. Hersh, chief executive officer and director), the Robert Martin Group (which includes Robert F. Weinberg, director; Martin W. Berger, a former director and a member of the Company's Advisory Board; and Timothy M. Jones, president) or the Cali Group (which includes John J. Cali, director, and John R. Cali, director), without the express written consent of a representative of the Mack Group, the Robert Martin Group or the Cali Group, as applicable, except in a manner which does not result in recognition of any built-in-gain (which may result in an income tax liability) or which reimburses the appropriate Mack Group, Robert Martin Group or Cali Group members for the tax consequences of the recognition of such built-in-gains (collectively, the "Property Lock-Ups"). The aforementioned

13



restrictions do not apply in the event that the Company sells all of its properties or in connection with a sale transaction which the Company's Board of Directors determines is reasonably necessary to satisfy a material monetary default on any unsecured debt, judgment or liability of the Company or to cure any material monetary default on any mortgage secured by a property. The Property Lock-Ups expire periodically through 2008. Upon the expiration of the Property Lock-Ups, the Company is 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 appropriate Mack Group, Robert Martin Group or Cali Group members.

        Acquisitions and Other Transactions.    Certain directors and executive officers of the Company (or members of their immediate families or related trusts) and persons who hold more than 5% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (or Units in the Operating Partnership) had direct or indirect interests in certain transactions involving the Company, the Operating Partnership or their affiliates in the last fiscal year as follows:

14


Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

        Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), requires the Company's executive officers, directors and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of the Company's Common Stock to file initial reports of ownership and reports of changes of ownership (Forms 3, 4 and 5) of the Common Stock with the SEC and the NYSE. Executive officers, directors

15



and greater than 10% holders are required by SEC regulations to furnish the Company with copies of such forms that they file.

        To the Company's knowledge, based solely on the Company's review of the copies of such reports received by the Company, the Company believes that for the fiscal year 2002, all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to its executive officers, directors and greater than 10% beneficial owners were complied with, except that each of Irvin D. Reid, Vincent Tese, Roy Zuckerberg, Nathan Gantcher, Martin D. Gruss, William L. Mack and Alan G. Philibosian, directors of the Company, reported his credit of deferred stock units and stock dividends of 216.880, 216.880, 211.455, 211.455, 216.880, 216.880 and 108.440, respectively, accrued for the quarter ended September 30, 2002, and issued on October 3, 2002, under the Directors' Deferred Compensation Plan on a Form 5 in February 2003, rather than on a Form 4 which should have been filed on October 7, 2002.

Meetings of Committees of the Board of Directors

        During 2002, the entire Board of Directors met nine times. No director attended fewer than 75% of the aggregate of the total number of meetings of the Board of Directors (held during the period for which he has been a director) and the total number of meetings held by all committees of the Board of Directors on which he served (during the periods that he served).

        The Board of Directors has four committees: the Executive Committee, the Audit Committee, the Executive Compensation and Option Committee and the Nominating Committee.

        The Executive Committee consists of William L. Mack, chairman, John R. Cali, Nathan Gantcher, Mitchell E. Hersh and Roy J. Zuckerberg. The Executive Committee acts for the Board of Directors in between regularly scheduled meetings of the Board of Directors, within certain parameters prescribed by the Board of Directors. The Executive Committee met six times during 2002.

        The Audit Committee consists of Brendan T. Byrne, chairman, Nathan Gantcher, Irvin D. Reid and Roy J. Zuckerberg. The Audit Committee authorizes and approves the engagement of independent accountants, reviews with the independent accountants the scope and results of the audit engagement, approves professional audit and permissible non-audit services provided by the independent accountants, reviews the independence of the independent accountants, considers the range of audit and non-audit fees and reviews the adequacy of the Company's internal accounting controls. The Audit Committee met four times during 2002. The Board of Directors believes that each of the members of the Audit Committee is an "independent" director within the meaning of applicable and proposed NYSE and SEC rules. On March 4, 2003, the Company amended and restated its Audit Committee Charter to address final and proposed rules promulgated by the SEC and the NYSE, respectively. A copy of the Amended and Restated Audit Committee Charter is attached to this Proxy Statement as Annex A.

        The SEC has adopted rules to implement certain requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 pertaining to public company audit committees. One of the rules adopted by the SEC requires a company to disclose whether it has an "Audit Committee Financial Expert" serving on its audit committee. Companies must comply with this disclosure requirement beginning with annual reports for fiscal years ending on or after July 15, 2003. Although it is not required to do so at this time, the Board of Directors has determined that the Company will comply with this disclosure in this Proxy Statement since the Board of Directors does not anticipate that there will be a change in the members comprising the Audit Committee during fiscal 2003. Based on its review of the criteria of an Audit Committee Financial Expert under the rules adopted by the SEC, the Board of Directors believes that each of Brendan T. Byrne, Nathan Gantcher, Irvin D. Reid and Roy J. Zuckerberg meet the definition of an Audit Committee Financial Expert.

16



        The Executive Compensation and Option Committee consists of Vincent Tese, chairman, Martin D. Gruss and Alan G. Philibosian. The Executive Compensation and Option Committee establishes remuneration levels for executive officers of the Company and implements incentive programs, including the Company's employee and director stock option plans. The Executive Compensation and Option Committee met once during 2002.

        The Nominating Committee consists of Vincent Tese, chairman, Nathan Gantcher and Alan G. Philibosian. The Nominating Committee makes recommendations for nominees to the Board of Directors of the Company. Although there are no formal procedures for stockholders to make recommendations for committee appointments or recommendations for nominees to the Board of Directors, the Nominating Committee will consider recommendations from stockholders, which should be addressed to Roger W. Thomas, the Company's Secretary, at the Company's address set forth on the first page of this Proxy Statement. The Nominating Committee met twice during 2002.

Report of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors

        The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company, on behalf of the Board of Directors of the Company, serves as an independent and objective party to monitor and provide general oversight of the Company's financial accounting and reporting process, selection of critical accounting policies, system of internal control, audit process for monitoring compliance with laws and regulations and the Company's standards of business conduct. The Audit Committee performs these oversight responsibilities in accordance with its Audit Committee Charter, which was amended and restated on March 4, 2003 to address final and proposed rules promulgated by the SEC and the NYSE, respectively, and which is attached to this Proxy Statement as Annex A. The Audit Committee met four times during 2002.

        The Company's management has primary responsibility for preparing the Company's financial statements and the Company's reporting process. The Company's independent accountants, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, are responsible for expressing an opinion on the conformity of the Company's audited financial statements to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The Audit Committee discussed with the Company's independent accountants and auditors the overall scope and plans for their respective audits. The Audit Committee met with the independent accountants, with and without management present, to discuss the results of their examinations, their evaluations of the Company's internal controls, and the overall quality of the Company's financial reporting.

        In this context, the Audit Committee hereby reports as follows:

1.
The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the fiscal 2002 audited financial statements with the Company's management, including the quality, not just the acceptability, of the Company's accounting principles, the reasonableness of significant judgments, and the clarity of disclosures in the financial statements;

2.
The Audit Committee has discussed with the independent accountants their judgments as to the quality, not just the acceptability, of the Company's accounting principles and such other matters as are required to be discussed by SAS 61 (Codification of Statements on Auditing Standards, AU §380), as may be modified or supplemented;

3.
The Audit Committee has received the written disclosures and the letter from the independent accountants required by Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1 (Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1, Independence Discussions with Audit Committees), as may be modified or supplemented, and has discussed with the independent accountants the independent accountants' independence from management and the Company and considered the compatibility of non-audit services with the auditor's independence; and

17


4.
Based on the review and discussions referred to in paragraphs (1) through (3) above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors of the Company (and the Board of Directors has approved) that the audited financial statements be included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002, for filing with the SEC.

        The foregoing Audit Committee Report does not constitute soliciting material and shall not be deemed filed or incorporated by reference into any other Company filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or Exchange Act, except to the extent the Company specifically incorporates this Audit Committee Report by reference therein.

        Each of the members of the Audit Committee is independent as defined under the existing and proposed listing standards of the NYSE and meets all other requirements of such Exchange and of applicable and proposed rules of the SEC.

Compensation of Directors

        Directors' Fees.    In 2002, each non-employee director was paid an annual fee of $20,000, plus $1,000 per Board meeting attended, $500 per committee meeting attended and $250 per scheduled telephonic meeting participation. On December 3, 2002, in light of the additional responsibilities imposed by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the SEC upon the Chairman of the Audit Committee, the Board of Directors approved an increase of $10,000 in the annual fee paid to the Chairman of the Audit Committee. The Company does not pay director fees to employee directors, who in fiscal 2002 consisted of Mitchell E. Hersh. Each director also was reimbursed for expenses incurred in attending Board and committee meetings. For fiscal year 2002, the Company's non-employee directors received directors' fees or fee equivalents (See "Compensation of Directors-Directors' Deferred Compensation Plan" below) in the amounts set forth in the table below.

        Directors' Deferred Compensation Plan.    Pursuant to the Directors' Deferred Compensation Plan, effective as of January 1, 1999, each non-employee director is entitled to defer all or a specified portion of the annual fee to be paid to such director. The account of a director who elects to defer such compensation under the Directors' Deferred Compensation Plan is credited with the hypothetical number of stock units, calculated to the nearest thousandths of a unit, determined by dividing the amount of compensation deferred on the deferral date by the closing market price of the Company's Common Stock as reported on the Consolidated Tape of NYSE listed shares on the deferral date. Any stock dividend declared by the Company on its Common Stock results in a proportionate increase in units in the director's account as if such director held shares of Common Stock equal to the number of units in such director's account. Payment of a director's account may only be made in a lump sum in shares of Common Stock equal to the number of units in a director's account after either the director's service on the Board of Directors has terminated or there has been a change in control of the Company. In 2002, the director accounts of Nathan Gantcher, Martin D. Gruss, William L. Mack, Alan G. Philibosian, Irvin D. Reid, Vincent Tese, and Roy J. Zuckerberg were credited with the stock units set forth in the table below.

        Directors' Stock Option Plans.    The Company has two director stock option plans: the Director Stock Option Plan of Mack-Cali Realty Corporation (the "Director Stock Option Plan") and the 2000 Director Stock Option Plan (the "2000 Director Stock Option Plan"). References to "Director Option Plans" herein refer to the Director Stock Option Plan and the 2000 Director Stock Option Plan, collectively. Pursuant to the Director Option Plans, each non-employee director is automatically granted a non-qualified option to purchase 5,000 shares of Common Stock in connection with the director's initial election or appointment to the Board of Directors. These grants under the Director Option Plans are made at an exercise price equal to the "fair market value" (as defined under the Director Option Plans) at the time of the grant of the shares of Common Stock subject to such option. The Executive Compensation and Option Committee may make additional discretionary option grants to eligible directors, consistent with the terms of the Director Option Plans. The Board of Directors may amend, suspend or terminate the Director Option Plans at any time, except that any amendments that would materially increase the cost of either of the Director Option Plans to the Company must be approved by the holders of the majority of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company entitled to vote.

Employment Contracts; Termination of Employment

        Mitchell E. Hersh Employment Agreement.    On July 1, 1999, following the appointment of Mitchell E. Hersh as Chief Executive Officer of the Company on April 18, 1999, the Company and Mr. Hersh amended and restated Mr. Hersh's employment agreement with the Company (the "Amended and Restated Hersh Agreement"), providing for a constant four year term. Mr. Hersh's current annual base salary is $1,050,000, with annual increases within the discretion of the Executive Compensation and Option Committee. Mr. Hersh also is eligible to receive an annual bonus, restricted share awards and options within the discretion of the Board of Directors or the Executive Compensation and Option Committee, as the case may be. Pursuant to the Employee Stock Option Plan, Mr. Hersh was awarded 62,500 shares of restricted stock as of July 1, 1999, and with respect to each tax year in which such shares of restricted stock vest and are distributed to him, Mr. Hersh is entitled to receive a tax gross-up payment from the Company equal to forty-three percent (43%) of the fair market value of such restricted shares at the time of vesting, exclusive of dividends (the "Tax Gross-Up Payments"). Mr. Hersh is required to devote substantially all of his business time to the affairs of the Company and, subject to certain excluded activities, generally is restricted during the term of his employment and in the event his employment is terminated by the Company for cause (as defined in the Amended and Restated Hersh Agreement) or by him without good reason (as defined in the Amended and Restated Hersh Agreement), for a period of one year thereafter, from conducting any office-service, flex or office property development, acquisition or management activities within the continental United States. Mr. Hersh is entitled to (i) receive the aggregate of a cash payment of $8,000,000 (the "Fixed Amount"), reimbursement of expenses incurred prior to the date of termination, and the Tax-Gross-Up Payments applicable to any vested shares of restricted stock, (ii) immediate vesting of all options and incentive compensation payments or programs otherwise subject to a vesting schedule, (iii) require the Company to repurchase his vested options and (iv) receive continuation of health coverage through the end of his unexpired employment period should his employment be terminated by the Company without cause, by him for good reason or on account of his disability (as defined in the Amended and Restated Hersh Agreement) or death. Should Mr. Hersh terminate his employment on or within six months following a change in control (as defined in the Amended and Restated Hersh Agreement), Mr. Hersh's termination shall be treated as a termination for good reason. In addition, upon a change in control, and irrespective of whether Mr. Hersh's employment is terminated, the vesting of all options and other incentive compensation is accelerated and Mr. Hersh is entitled to receive a tax gross-up payment to cover any excise taxes payable due to the change in control. On January 2, 2003, the Company, with the consent of Mr. Hersh, amended Mr. Hersh's 1999 restricted stock grant to vest the

22


15,625 shares of restricted stock scheduled to vest in 2003 (which otherwise would not have vested), lengthen the vesting period of the remaining 15,625 unvested shares of restricted stock scheduled to vest in 2004 by four years, and replace the existing performance goals with an annual performance goal to be set by the Executive Compensation and Stock Option Committee at the beginning of each year (the "2003 Hersh Restricted Stock Amendment"). In addition, on January 2, 2003, 60,000 shares of restricted stock were issued to Mr. Hersh (the "2003 Hersh Restricted Stock Grant") with vesting subject to the attainment of annual performance goals to be set by the Executive Compensation and Stock Option Committee in each year and an entitlement to tax gross up payments upon such vesting. Accordingly, of the total 75,625 unvested shares of restricted stock currently issued to Mr. Hersh, the number of shares scheduled to be vested and earned on each vesting date on an annual basis over a five to seven year period, provided certain performance requirements are satisfied, generally is equal to 15% of such restricted stock on the vesting date in year one, 15% of such restricted stock on the vesting date in year two, 20% of such restricted stock on the vesting date in year three, 25% of such restricted stock on the vesting date in year four and 25% of such restricted stock on the vesting date in year five, with any unvested stock carried forward into subsequent years including year six and year seven.

        Timothy M. Jones Employment Agreement.    On July 1, 1999, following the appointment of Timothy M. Jones as President of the Company on April 18, 1999, the Company and Mr. Jones amended and restated Mr. Jones' employment agreement with the Company (the "Amended and Restated Jones Agreement"). The terms and conditions of the Amended and Restated Jones Agreement are generally similar to those of the Amended and Restated Hersh Agreement, except that (i) Mr. Jones' current annual base salary is $515,000, with annual increases within the sole discretion of the Chief Executive Officer, (ii) Mr. Jones was awarded 37,500 shares of restricted stock in 1999 and (iii) the Fixed Amount Mr. Jones will receive is $2,700,000. On January 2, 2003, Mr. Jones was awarded an additional 36,000 shares of restricted stock (the "Jones 2003 Restricted Stock Grant") and his prior restricted stock grant was amended (the "Jones 2003 Restricted Stock Amendment"), the terms and conditions of each of which are generally similar to those of the 2003 Hersh Restricted Stock Grant and the 2003 Hersh Restricted Stock Amendment, respectively, resulting in a total of 45,375 unvested shares of restricted stock currently issued to Mr. Jones.

        Barry Lefkowitz Employment Agreement.    On July 1, 1999, the Company and Barry Lefkowitz amended and restated Mr. Lefkowitz's employment agreement with the Company (the "Amended and Restated Lefkowitz Agreement"). The terms and conditions of the Amended and Restated Lefkowitz Agreement are generally similar to those of the Amended and Restated Jones Agreement, except that (i) Mr. Lefkowitz's current annual base salary is $395,000, (ii) Mr. Lefkowitz was awarded 26,094 shares of restricted stock in 1999 and (iii) the Fixed Amount Mr. Lefkowitz will receive is $2,500,000. On January 2, 2003, Mr. Lefkowitz was awarded an additional 28,000 shares of restricted stock and his prior restricted stock grant was amended, the terms and conditions of each of which are generally similar to those of the Jones 2003 Restricted Stock Grant and the Jones 2003 Restricted Stock Amendment, respectively, resulting in a total of 34,524 unvested shares of restricted stock currently issued to Mr. Lefkowitz.

        Roger W. Thomas Employment Agreement.    On July 1, 1999, the Company and Roger W. Thomas amended and restated Mr. Thomas' employment agreement with the Company (the "Amended and Restated Thomas Agreement"). The terms and conditions of the Amended and Restated Thomas Agreement are generally similar to those of the Amended and Restated Jones Agreement, except that (i) Mr. Thomas' current annual base salary is $350,000, (ii) Mr. Thomas was awarded 22,031 shares of restricted stock in 1999 and (iii) the Fixed Amount Mr. Thomas will receive is $2,500,000. Mr. Thomas was awarded an additional 1,000 shares of restricted stock in March of 2001. On January 2, 2003, Mr. Thomas was awarded an additional 24,000 shares of restricted stock and each of his prior restricted stock agreements was amended, the terms and conditions of each of which are generally similar to

23



those of the Jones 2003 Restricted Stock Grant and the Jones 2003 Restricted Stock Amendment, respectively, resulting in a total of 29,858 unvested shares of restricted stock currently issued to Mr. Thomas.

        Michael A. Grossman Employment Agreement.    On December 5, 2000, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Michael A. Grossman (the "Grossman Agreement"). The terms and conditions of the Grossman Agreement are generally similar to those of the Amended and Restated Jones Agreement, except that (i) the Grossman Agreement provides for an initial three year term, and a constant one year term beginning in December 2002, (ii) Mr. Grossman's current annual base salary is $340,000, (iii) in March 2001, Mr. Grossman was awarded 18,519 shares of restricted stock in addition to the 4,000 shares of restricted stock previously granted to him in 1999, and with respect to each tax year in which such restricted stock vests, Mr. Grossman is entitled to receive a Tax Gross-Up Payment, (iv) the Fixed Amount Mr. Grossman will receive is $1,000,000 and (v) should Mr. Grossman terminate his employment following a change in control, Mr. Grossman's termination will not be treated as a termination for good reason. On January 2, 2003, Mr. Grossman was awarded an additional 20,000 shares of restricted stock and each of his prior restricted stock agreements was amended, the terms and conditions of each of which are generally similar to those of the Jones 2003 Restricted Stock Grant and the Jones 2003 Restricted Stock Amendment, respectively, resulting in a total of 27,482 unvested shares of restricted stock currently issued to Mr. Grossman.

Executive Compensation and Option Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

        The Executive Compensation and Option Committee consists of Vincent Tese, Martin D. Gruss and Alan G. Philibosian. There are no interlocking relationships involving the Company's Board of Directors or Executive Compensation and Option Committee and the board of directors or compensation committee of any other company, which would require disclosure under the executive compensation rules of the SEC.

Report of the Executive Compensation and Option Committee of the Board of Directors on Executive Compensation

        Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in any of the Company's previous filings under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act that might incorporate future filings, including this Proxy Statement, in whole or in part, the following report and the Performance Graph which follows shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into any such filings.

        Executive Compensation Philosophy.    The Executive Compensation and Option Committee will annually consider the appropriate combination of cash and stock-based compensation and weigh the competitiveness of the Company's overall compensation arrangements in relation to comparable real estate investment trusts. From time to time, the Executive Compensation and Option Committee may retain compensation and other management consultants to assist with, among other things, structuring the Company's various compensation programs and determining appropriate levels of salary, bonus and other compensatory awards payable to the Company's executive officers and key employees, as well as to guide the Company in the development of near-term and long-term individual performance objectives necessary to achieve long-term profitability.

        The Executive Compensation and Option Committee believes that a fundamental goal of the Company's executive compensation program should be to provide incentives to create value for the Company's stockholders.

        Base Salaries.    The base compensation levels for the Company's executive officers in 2002 were set to compensate the executive officers for the functions they will perform as well as to be consideration for certain non-competition provisions in the employment agreements, and were based on the

24



employment agreements entered into in December 1997, as amended and restated in July 1999 and December 2000. The Company believes that the base salaries generally are appropriate as base compensation to compensate the Company's executive officers for the functions they perform and other considerations. Base salaries will be reviewed annually and may be increased by the Executive Compensation and Option Committee or the Chief Executive Officer, as the case may be, in accordance with certain criteria determined primarily on the basis of growth of revenues and funds from operations per share of Common Stock and on the basis of certain other factors, which include (i) individual performance, (ii) the functions performed by the executive officer and (iii) changes in the compensation peer group in which the Company competes for executive talent. The weight given such factors by the Executive Compensation and Option Committee may vary from individual to individual.

        Annual Bonus Compensation.    The Company's policy of awarding annual cash bonuses is designed to specifically relate executive pay to Company and individual performance. As a pay-for-performance program, cash bonuses provide financial rewards for the achievement of substantive Company objectives. Actual awards paid are based primarily on actual Company performance. During 2002, discretionary incentive and merit cash bonuses in recognition of services performed during fiscal 2002 were awarded as follows: $500,000 to Mitchell E. Hersh, $415,000 to Timothy M. Jones, $320,000 to Barry Lefkowitz, $250,000 to Roger W. Thomas and $215,000 to Michael A. Grossman.

        Employee Stock Option Plan.    The Company has two employee stock option plans: the Employee Stock Option Plan of Mack-Cali Realty Corporation (the "Employee Stock Option Plan") and the 2000 Employee Stock Option Plan (the "2000 Employee Stock Option Plan"). References to "Employee Option Plans" herein refer to the Employee Stock Option Plan and the 2000 Employee Stock Option Plan, collectively. Awards are granted under the Employee Option Plans based on a number of factors, including (i) the executive officer's or key employee's position in the Company, (ii) his or her performance and responsibilities, (iii) the extent to which he or she already holds an equity stake in the Company, (iv) equity participation levels of comparable executives and key employees at other companies in the compensation peer group and (v) individual contribution to the success of the Company's financial performance. However, the Employee Option Plans do not provide any formulated method for weighing these factors, and a decision to grant an award is based primarily upon the Executive Compensation and Option Committee's evaluation of the past as well as the future anticipated performance and responsibilities of the individual in question. During 2002, no options or restricted stock were granted to the Company's Named Executive Officers. The Company's Employee Option Plans relate closely to traditional forms of equity oriented compensation in the commercial real estate industry. The purpose of the option and other stock based grants is to aid the Company in attracting and retaining quality employees, all advancing the interest of the Company's stockholders by offering employees an incentive to maximize their efforts to promote the Company's economic performance. In addition, to assist the Company in retaining employees and encouraging them to seek long-term appreciation in the value of the Company's stock, awards generally are not exercisable immediately upon grant, but instead vest over a specified period. Accordingly, an employee must remain with the Company for a specified period to enjoy the full economic benefit of an award.

        On January 2, 2003, pursuant to the Executive Compensation and Option Committee's and the Board's approval in December 2002, restricted stock was awarded under the Company's Employee Stock Option Plans as follows: 60,000 shares to Mitchell E. Hersh, 36,000 shares to Timothy M. Jones, 28,000 shares to Barry Lefkowitz, 24,000 shares to Roger W. Thomas and 20,000 shares to Michael A. Grossman. See "Employment Contracts; Termination of Employment." In addition, on January 2, 2003, pursuant to the Executive Compensation and Option Committee's and the Board's approval in December 2002, certain shares of restricted stock that would otherwise have failed to vest as of year end were vested for each of the Named Executive Officers and the terms of the unvested shares of restricted stock for each of the Named Executive Officers remaining from the July 1999 grant were amended, all as described in "Employment Contracts; Termination of Employment" above. All of these

25



actions were taken because, in the Executive Compensation and Option Committee's judgment, Company management had performed well in difficult economic times and the failure to meet the July 1999 vesting criteria for the shares that otherwise would have vested on January 2, 2003 was due largely to the lack of appreciation in the Company's stock price due to the general poor performance of the United States equity markets, for which the executives should not be penalized. The Executive Compensation and Option Committee also concluded that annually set flexible criteria rather than rigid numerical criteria set several years in advance more properly incentivized senior management. Accordingly, the Executive Compensation and Option Committee recommended to the full Board of Directors, and the Board of Directors approved, vesting the fourth tranche of the 1999 restricted stock award and amending the fifth and final tranche to conform to the new 2003 grants, so that the fifth tranche, as amended, and the new 2003 grants, in the aggregate, would be subject to a new five to seven year vesting schedule and to new annually established performance criteria. The Executive Compensation and Option Committee concluded that this was an appropriate method of rewarding and incentivizing Company management and was consistent with programs for senior executives in place at comparable companies, both within and without the REIT industry.

        401(k) Savings Plan.    The Company also maintains a tax-qualified 401(k) savings plan for its eligible employees known as the "Mack-Cali Realty Corporation 401(k) Savings/Retirement Plan" ("401(k) Plan"). Employees who have attained age 21 and completed one-half year of service with the Company are eligible to participate and may elect to defer up to 15% of their base pay on a pre-tax basis to the 401(k) Plan. The Company may make discretionary matching or profit sharing contributions to the 401(k) Plan on behalf of eligible participants in any plan year. In 2002, the Company made discretionary matching contributions of $2,975 to the 401(k) Plan for the plan year ended December 31, 2001 on behalf of each of the Named Executive Officers, other than for Mitchell E. Hersh. Participants are always 100% 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% per year, becoming 100% vested after a total of six years of service with the Company. 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 vested account balance in the 401(k) Plan in a single sum or installment payment or in the form of an annuity upon his termination of service with the Company.

        Chief Executive Officer Compensation.    Mitchell E. Hersh, the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, received a base salary during 2002 of $1,050,000 pursuant to the employment agreement entered into in December 1997, as amended and restated in July 1999. Mr. Hersh also was paid a cash bonus of $500,000 in recognition of services performed during fiscal 2002. Mr. Hersh received no fees for his service as a Director of the Company during fiscal 2002. The Executive Compensation and Option Committee recognizes Mr. Hersh's contributions to the Company's operations and attempts to ensure that the Chief Executive Officer's compensation is commensurate with the compensation of chief executive officers of comparable corporations. In December 2002, the Executive Compensation and Option Committee recommended that the Board of Directors approve and the Board of Directors did approve the grant, effective January 2, 2003, of 60,000 additional shares of restricted stock to Mr. Hersh as described under "Employee Stock Option Plan" above. The Board of Directors deemed such bonus, restricted stock award and Mr. Hersh's total compensation appropriate in light of Mr. Hersh's substantial contribution to the Company's growth and success in 2002.

PROPOSAL NO. 2
RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

        PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP served as the Company's independent accountants for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002, and has been appointed by the Audit Committee to continue as the Company's independent accountants for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2003. In the event that ratification of this appointment of independent accountants is not approved by the affirmative vote of a majority of votes cast on the matter, then the appointment of independent accountants will be reconsidered by the Audit Committee. Unless marked to the contrary, proxies received will be voted for ratification of the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the Company's independent accountants for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2003.

        A representative of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP is expected to be present at the annual meeting. The representative will have an opportunity to make a statement and will be able to respond to appropriate questions.

        Your ratification of the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the Company's independent accountants for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2003 does not preclude the Board of Directors of the Company from terminating its engagement of PricewaterhouseCoopers and retaining a new independent accountant, if it determines that such an action would be in the best interests of the Company. If the Company elects to retain a new independent accountant, such accountant will be another "Big 4" accounting firm.

        The Company was billed for professional services rendered by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, the details of which are disclosed below.

Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

        Pursuant to its charter, the Audit Committee has the sole authority to appoint or replace the independent auditor (subject, if applicable, to stockholder ratification). The Audit Committee is directly responsible for the compensation and oversight of the work of the independent auditor (including resolution of disagreements between management and the independent auditor regarding financial reporting) for the purpose of preparing or issuing an audit report or related work. The independent auditor is engaged by, and reports directly to, the Audit Committee.

        The Audit Committee pre-approves all auditing services and permitted non-audit services (including the fees and terms thereof) to be performed for the Company by its independent auditor, subject to the de minimis exceptions for non-audit services described in Section 10A(i)(1)(B) of the Exchange Act, all of which are approved by the Audit Committee prior to the completion of the audit. In the event pre-approval for such auditing services and permitted non-audit services cannot be obtained as a result of inherent time constraints in the matter for which such services are required, the Chairman of the Audit Committee has been granted the authority to pre-approve such services, and will report for ratification such pre-approval to the Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting. The Audit Committee has complied with the procedures set forth above, and has otherwise complied with the provisions of its charter.

Audit Fees

        The aggregate fees incurred by the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries for fiscal years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001 for professional services rendered by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP in connection with (i) the audit of the Company's annual financial statements, (ii) the review of the financial statements included in the Company's Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, June 30, and September 30 and (iii) services provided in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements were $421,100 and $442,500, respectively.

Audit-Related Fees

        The aggregate fees incurred by the Company for fiscal years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001 by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP for assurance and related services in connection with the performance of the audit or review of the Company's financial statements, including 401(k) plan audits, were $25,500 and $17,000, respectively.

Tax Fees

        The aggregate fees incurred by the Company for fiscal years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001 for professional services rendered by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP for tax compliance, tax advice and tax planning were $80,000 and $80,556, respectively. These services consisted of reviewing the Company's tax returns.

All Other Fees

        The Company did not incur any other fees for fiscal years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001 for services rendered by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP. In addition, no services were performed by, or fees billed for the professional services rendered by, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP in connection with financial information systems design and implementation projects for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001.

Vote Required and Board of Directors' Recommendation

        Assuming a quorum is present, the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting, either in person or by proxy, is required for approval of this proposal. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of this proposal.

PROPOSAL NO. 3

                 APPROVAL OF THE AMENDMENT AND RESTATEMENT
OF THE 2000 DIRECTOR STOCK OPTION PLAN

        At its meeting on March 24, 2003, the Board of Directors of the Company adopted the Amended and Restated 2000 Director Stock Option Plan (the "Amended and Restated Director Plan") (a copy of which is attached hereto as Annex B) and directed that the Amended and Restated Director Plan be submitted to the stockholders for their approval. The 2000 Director Stock Option Plan, which was originally effective on September 11, 2000, provided for a non-discretionary grant of an option to purchase 5,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock to each director upon his or her initial appointment to the Board of Directors, as well additional discretionary grants of options to non-employee directors and members of the Company's Advisory Board. Unlike the Company's 2000 Employee Stock Option Plan which provides for several different types of stock based compensation, the 2000 Director Stock Option Plan only provided for option grants. The 2000 Director Stock Option Plan has been amended and restated, subject to stockholder approval, to include the features of the Company's 2000 Employee Stock Option Plan, including the ability to grant restricted stock and stock appreciation rights to non-employee directors and members of the Advisory Board, with the intention that the Amended and Restated Director Plan be substantially similar to the 2000 Employee Stock Option Plan. The Board of Directors believes that adoption of the Amended and Restated Director Plan is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders because the ability to grant restricted stock and stock appreciation rights in addition to stock options under the Amended and Restated Director Plan is an important factor in attracting, motivating and retaining distinguished personnel with proven ability and vision to serve on the Board of Directors and the Advisory Board of the Company, and to chart the Company's course towards continued growth and financial success.

Summary of the Provisions of the Amended and Restated Director Plan

        The following summary of the Amended and Restated Director Plan is qualified in its entirety by the specific language of the plan, a copy of which is attached hereto as Annex B.

        General.    The Amended and Restated Director Plan is designed to enable the Company to attract and retain persons of outstanding competence to serve as members of the Board of Directors and the Advisory Board of the Company and to provide a direct link between directors' or Advisory Board members' compensation and stockholder value. Participation in the Amended and Restated Director Plan is restricted to non-employee directors and Advisory Board members. In addition to non-qualified options to purchase shares of Common Stock, restricted stock grants and stock appreciation rights ("SARs") may be granted under the Amended and Restated Director Plan. The Board of Directors has previously authorized, and the stockholders have previously approved, 350,000 shares of Common Stock for issuance under the Amended and Restated Director Plan. The Amended and Restated Director Plan also provides that in the event of any stock dividend, recapitalization, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, exchange of shares, combination, or like change in the capital structure of the Company, appropriate adjustments will be made to the shares of Common Stock subject to the Amended and Restated Director Plan and to any outstanding awards. To the extent any outstanding option expires or terminates prior to its exercise in full, or if any shares of Restricted Stock or SARs are forfeited, the shares of Common Stock subject to such award immediately prior to its expiration, termination or forfeiture will be returned to the Amended and Restated Director Plan and made available for future grants.

        Administration.    The Amended and Restated Director Plan is administered by the Executive Compensation and Option Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company in compliance with the requirements of Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act. Initial option grants, including all conditions

30



of such grants, that are made to eligible non-employee directors under the Amended and Restated Director Plan are non-discretionary and are dictated by the written terms of the Amended and Restated Director Plan. Under the Amended and Restated Director Plan, upon a non-employee director's initial election or appointment to the Board of Directors of the Company, the director is automatically granted a non-qualified stock option to purchase 5,000 shares of Common Stock at its fair market value (as defined in the Amended and Restated Director Plan) on the date of grant. Subject to the provisions of the Amended and Restated Director Plan the Executive Compensation and Option Committee also determines the eligible directors and Advisory Board members to whom grants of discretionary options, SARs, and shares of Restricted Stock are to be made, the number of shares of Common Stock to be covered by each grant and all other terms and conditions of the grant, consistent with the terms of the Amended and Restated Director Plan. All options granted under the Amended and Restated Director Plan are non-qualified options. If a discretionary option is granted, the Executive Compensation and Option Committee determines the option's term, vesting and exercisability, the amount and type of consideration to be paid to the Company upon the option's exercise and the other terms and conditions of the grant. The terms and conditions of Restricted Stock and SAR awards are also determined by the Executive Compensation and Option Committee. The Executive Compensation and Option Committee has the responsibility to interpret the Amended and Restated Director Plan and to make determinations with respect to all awards granted under the Amended and Restated Director Plan. All determinations of the Executive Compensation and Option Committee are final and binding on all persons having an interest in the Amended and Restated Director Plan or in any award granted under the Amended and Restated Director Plan. The costs and expenses of administering the Amended and Restated Director Plan are borne by the Company.

        Eligibility.    Participation in the Amended and Restated Director Plan is limited to persons who serve as members of the Board of Directors and the Advisory Board of the Company and who, at the time of the option grant, are not employees of the Company. For purposes of determining the exercise period of grants under the Amended and Restated Director Plan, any member of the Board of Directors who resigns as a director in order to become a member of the Advisory Board shall be deemed during his period of service as a member of the Advisory Board to be a continuing member of the Board of Directors and any member of the Advisory Board who resigns as a member of the Advisory Board to become a member of the Board of Directors shall be deemed during his period of service as a member of the Board of Directors to be a continuing member of the Advisory Board. Employees of the Company may not participate in the Amended and Restated Director Plan.

        Terms and Conditions of Option Grants.    The Amended and Restated Director Plan provides for each non-employee director automatically to receive, upon his or her initial election or appointment to the Board of Directors, an option to acquire 5,000 shares of Common Stock at a price equal to the fair market value at the date of the grant of the shares of Common Stock subject to such option. Pursuant to the terms of the Amended and Restated Director Plan, each automatic option shall be memorialized in writing and become vested and exercisable on the first anniversary of the grant date, provided the director remains in the continuous service of the Board of Directors, during such period. Each unvested automatic option becomes vested and exercisable upon the director's termination of service due to retirement, death or disability. If a director's service is terminated for "cause" the automatic option granted to the director under the Amended and Restated Director Plan will be forfeited. In the event a director's service terminates before his or her automatic option has vested, such unvested option shall be canceled and the director shall have no further right or interest in the forfeited option. In addition, the vesting of an unvested automatic option is accelerated upon a director's termination of service on or within the six months following a "Change of Control" of the Company. Each automatic option shall remain outstanding until the tenth anniversary of the grant date. In addition, the Executive Compensation and Option Committee may grant additional discretionary options to eligible directors and members of the Advisory Board, the terms of which, including, the per share exercise price, shall be determined by the Executive Compensation, consistent with the provisions of the Amended and

31



Restated Director Plan and specified in a written agreement. After the Company grants an option pursuant to the Amended and Restated Director Plan, such option may not be re-priced by the Company. Discretionary options granted under the Amended and Restated Director Plan will become exercisable at such times as may be specified by the Executive Compensation and Option Committee, and generally become exercisable on the first anniversary of the date of grant. The maximum term of options granted under the Amended and Restated Director Plan is ten years.

        Generally, options may be exercised by the payment of the exercise price in cash, certified check or wire transfer, or, subject to the approval of the Executive Compensation and Option Committee, in cash equivalents, such as through the tender of shares of the Company's Common Stock owned by the option holder having a fair market value not less than the exercise price, by the assignment of the proceeds of a sale of some or all of the shares of Common Stock being acquired upon the exercise of the option, by third party loan or in any combination of these methods. Options are generally nontransferable by the option holder other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution except that an option holder may, if permitted by the Executive Compensation and Option Committee in its discretion, transfer an award or any portion thereof, to one or more members of the option holder's immediate family.

        Terms and Conditions of other Awards.    Each SAR or Restricted Stock award granted under the Amended and Restated Director Plan is also evidenced by a written agreement between the Company and the award holder specifying the number of shares of Common Stock subject to the award and the other applicable terms and conditions, consistent with the requirements of the Amended and Restated Director Plan. A SAR may be granted separately or in conjunction with the grant of an option. The terms included in the written agreements evidencing these awards are summarized below.

        If a SAR is granted, the written agreement will specify if the SAR is being granted separately or with respect to an outstanding option. In general, if a SAR is granted with respect to an option, the exercise of the option will cancel the SAR and the exercise of the SAR will cancel the option. An agreement evidencing the SAR will also describe when the SAR will become vested and exercisable, subject to the award holder's continued service as a director or member of the Advisory Board, and the per share grant price. Upon settlement of the SAR, occurring at exercise, the award holder will receive a cash distribution of the difference between the grant price of the Common Stock underlying the SAR and its fair market value on the date of exercise.

        If shares of Restricted Stock are awarded, the agreement will specify the per share grant price of the Common Stock subject to the restrictions, if any, the conditions that will result in the automatic and complete forfeiture of the shares and the time and manner in which the restrictions will lapse, subject to the award holder's continued service a director or member of the Advisory Board. Upon settlement of the Restricted Stock, occurring upon the lapse of the restrictions, the shares of Common Stock subject to the award will become immediately distributable to the participant.

        Change Of Control Provisions.    In general, a "Change of Control" will be deemed to occur upon any of the following events in which the stockholders of the Company do not retain, directly or indirectly, at least a majority of the beneficial interest in the voting stock of the Company or its successor: (i) the direct or indirect sale or exchange by the stockholders of the Company of all or substantially all of the stock of the Company, (ii) a merger in which the Company is a party, or (iii) the sale, exchange or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company. If a participant's terminates service within six months following a "Change of Control," all of the options and SARs previously granted to him shall automatically become vested and immediately exercisable; restrictions in Restricted Stock awards will also automatically lapse upon a "Change of Control" and the Restricted Stock will become immediately distributable to the participant.

32



        Other Provisions.    Neither the existence of the Amended and Restated Director Plan, nor the granting of an option thereunder, will be construed to limit, in any way, the right of the Company or its stockholders to elect a person to serve as a director or the right of the Board of Directors to appoint a person to serve as a member of the Advisory Board. In addition, nothing in the Amended and Restated Director Plan shall be construed to give any director or Advisory Board member the right to a grant of an award (other than the non-discretionary option upon initial appointment or election) under the Amended and Restated Director Plan unless the express terms and conditions of the Amended and Restated Director Plan are satisfied.

        Termination or Amendment of the Amended and Restated Director Plan.    Unless sooner terminated, no awards may be granted under the Amended and Restated Director Plan after September 11, 2010. The Board of Directors may terminate or amend the Amended and Restated Director Plan at any time, but the Board of Directors may not amend the Amended and Restated Director Plan to increase the total number of shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance of awards or adopt any amendment that would materially increase the cost of the Amended and Restated Director Plan to the Company without stockholder approval. No amendment may be adopted that would adversely affect an outstanding option or award without the participant's consent.

Summary of Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Amended and Restated Director Stock Option Plan

        The following summary is intended only as a general guide as to the federal income tax consequences under current law with respect to participation in the Amended and Restated Director Plan and does not attempt to describe all possible federal or other tax consequences of such participation. Furthermore, the tax consequences of awards granted under the Amended and Restated Director Plan are complex and subject to change, and a taxpayer's particular situation may be such that some variation of the described rules is applicable.

        Non-Qualified Stock Options.    Options that are granted under the Amended and Restated Director Plan do not qualify as incentive stock options, and as such are non-qualified stock options and have no special tax status. In general, no gain or loss is recognized by the option holder at the time an option is granted under the Amended and Restated Director Plan. Upon the exercise of an option, the option holder normally recognizes ordinary income in the amount of the difference between the fair market value of the Common Stock on determination date (which is generally the date of exercise) and the option price, and the Company would be entitled to a deduction for federal income tax purposes for the same amount. Upon a subsequent sale or exchange of stock acquired pursuant to the exercise of an option, the option holder would have gain or loss, measured by the difference between the sale price and the fair market value on the date of recognition of income, taxable as a capital gain or loss. A capital gain or loss will be long-term if the option holder's holding period is more than 12 months. No tax deduction is available to the Company with respect to the grant of a non-qualified option or the sale of the stock acquired pursuant to such grant.

        SARs and Restricted Stock Awards.    A participant will not be required to recognize any income for federal income tax purposes upon the grant of a SAR or shares of Restricted Stock. However, upon settlement of the SAR award (the date of its exercise), the participant will be required to recognize as ordinary income the difference between the strike price and the fair market value on the date of its exercise of the shares of Common Stock on which the SAR award is based. This amount will be taxed at ordinary federal income tax rates. Upon settlement of the Restricted Stock award (the date the shares become distributable), the participant will be required to recognize as ordinary income the fair market value of the shares of Common Stock on such date. The Company should be entitled to a deduction equal to the amount of the ordinary income recognized by the participant upon the settlement of the SAR or Restricted Stock award.

33



Vote Required and Board of Directors' Recommendation

        Assuming a quorum is present, the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast on this proposal at the Annual Meeting is required for approval of this Proposal No. 3, provided that the total votes cast on this proposal represent over 50% in interest of all securities entitled to vote on this proposal. For purposes of the vote on this Proposal No. 3, an abstention or a broker non-vote will have the effect of a vote against this proposal unless the total votes cast on this proposal represent more than 50% in interest of all securities entitled to vote on this proposal, in which event neither an abstention nor a broker non-vote will have any effect on the result of the vote.

        THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR APPROVAL OF THE ADOPTION OF THE AMENDED AND RESTATED 2000 DIRECTOR STOCK OPTION PLAN.

        The Corporation, in its discretion, may postpone the issuance or delivery of Common Stock upon any exercise of an Option or pursuant to an Award of Restricted Stock until completion of such stock exchange listing or other qualification of such shares under any state or federal law, rule or regulation as the Corporation may consider appropriate, and may require any Participant, Beneficiary or legal representative to make such representations and furnish such information as it may consider appropriate in connection with the issuance or delivery of the Shares in compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations.

10.7    WITHHOLDING TAXES.

        The Corporation may make such provisions and take such steps as it may deem necessary or appropriate for the withholding of all federal, state and local taxes required by law to be withheld with respect to Awards granted pursuant to the Plan including, but not limited to (i) accepting a remittance from the Participant in cash, or in the Committee's discretion in Mature Shares, (ii) deducting the amount required to be withheld from any other amount then or thereafter payable by the Corporation to a Participant, Beneficiary or legal representative or from any Shares due to the Participant under the

B-13



Plan, (iii) requiring a Participant, Beneficiary or legal representative to pay to the Corporation the amount required to be withheld as a condition of releasing Common Stock or (iv) any combination of the foregoing. In addition, subject to such rules and regulations as the Committee shall from time to time establish, Participants shall be permitted to satisfy federal, state and local taxes, if any, imposed upon the payment of Awards in Common Stock at a rate up to such Participant's maximum marginal tax rate with respect to each such tax by (i) irrevocably electing to have the Corporation deduct from the number of Shares otherwise deliverable upon exercise of an Award such number of Shares as shall have a value equal to the amount of tax to be withheld, (ii) delivering to the Corporation such portion of the Common Stock delivered in payment of the Award as shall have a value equal to the amount of tax to be withheld, or (iii) delivering to the Corporation such number of Mature Shares or combination of Mature Shares and cash as shall have a value equal to the amount of tax to be withheld.

10.8    NON-TRANSFERABILITY/DESIGNATION AND CHANGE OF BENEFICIARY.

10.9    PAYMENTS TO PERSONS OTHER THAN A PARTICIPANT.

        If the Committee shall find that any person to whom any amount is payable under the Plan is unable to care for his or her affairs because of illness or accident, or is a minor, or has died, then any payment due to such person or his or her estate (unless a prior claim therefor has been made by a duly appointed legal representative), may, if the Committee so directs the Corporation, be paid to his or her spouse, a child, a relative, an institution maintaining or having custody of such person, or any other person deemed by the Committee to be a proper recipient on behalf of such person otherwise entitled to payment. Any such payment shall be a complete discharge of the liability of the Committee and the Corporation therefor.

10.10    NO LIABILITY OF COMMITTEE MEMBERS.

        No member of the Committee shall be personally liable by reason of any contract or other instrument executed by such member or on his or her behalf in his or her capacity as a member of the Committee nor for any mistake of judgment made in good faith, and the Corporation shall indemnify and hold harmless each employee, officer or director of the Corporation to whom any duty or power relating to the administration or interpretation of the Plan may be allocated or delegated, against any cost or expense (including counsel fees) or liability (including any sum paid in settlement of a claim with the approval of the Board) arising out of any act or omission to act in connection with the Plan unless arising out of such person's own fraud or bad faith. The indemnification provided for in this Section 10.10 shall be in addition to any rights of indemnification such Committee member has as a director or officer pursuant to law, under the Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws of the Corporation.

B-14



10.11    AMENDMENT OR TERMINATION.

        Except as to matters that in the opinion of the Corporation's legal counsel require stockholder approval, any provision of the Plan may be modified as to a Participant by an individual agreement approved by the Committee. The Board may, with prospective or retroactive effect, amend, suspend or terminate the Plan or any portion thereof at any time; provided, however, that (i) no amendment that would materially increase the cost of the Plan to the Corporation may be made by the Board without the approval of the stockholders of the Corporation and (ii) no amendment, suspension or termination of the Plan shall deprive any Participant of any rights to Awards previously made under the Plan without his or her written consent. Subject to earlier termination pursuant to the provisions of this Section, and unless the stockholders of the Corporation shall have approved an extension of the Plan beyond such date, the Plan shall terminate and no further Awards shall be made under the Plan after the tenth (10th) anniversary of the Effective Date of the Plan specified in Section 10.15 hereof.

10.12    UNFUNDED PLAN.

        The Plan is intended to constitute an unfunded deferred compensation arrangement.

10.13    GOVERNING LAW.

        The Plan shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Maryland, without reference to the principles of conflicts of law thereof.

10.14    NON-UNIFORM DETERMINATIONS.

        The Committee's determinations under the Plan need not be uniform and may be made by the Committee selectively among persons who receive, or are eligible to receive Discretionary Options or other Awards (other than Non-Discretionary Options), whether or not such persons are similarly situated. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Committee shall be entitled, to enter into non-uniform and selective Award Agreements as to (a) the identity of the Participant, (b) the terms and provisions of Awards, and (c) the treatment of termination of service.

10.15    EFFECTIVE DATE.

        The Plan was originally effective September 11, 2000. This Amended and Restated Plan is effective March 24, 2003, subject to stockholder approval.

10.16    NO ILLEGAL TRANSACTIONS.

        The Plan and all Awards granted pursuant to it are subject to all applicable laws and regulations. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan or any Award, Participants shall not be entitled to exercise or receive benefits under, any Award, and the Corporation shall not be obligated to deliver any Shares or deliver any benefits to a Participant, if such exercise or delivery would constitute a violation by the Participant or the Corporation of any applicable law or regulation.

10.17    SEVERABILITY.

        If any part of the Plan is declared by any court of governmental authority to be unlawful or invalid, such unlawfulness or invalidity shall not invalidate any other part of the Plan. Any Section or part of a Section so declared to be unlawful or invalid shall, if possible, be construed in manner which will give effect to the terms of such Section to the fullest extent possible while remaining lawful and valid.
