Item 1.01        Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On September 21, 2007, Mack-Cali Realty, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”), the operating partnership of Mack-Cali Realty Corporation (the “General Partner”), exercised an option to expand the borrowing capacity under its unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) from $600 million to $775 million.  In connection with this expansion, the Operating Partnership entered into a Fourth Modification Agreement dated as of September 21, 2007 with a group of 12 current lender banks under the Credit Facility (the “Fourth Modification Agreement”). The Fourth Modification Agreement provided for the expansion of the Credit Facility, the payment of $437,500 in fees and the updating of the schedule of lender commitments by modifying certain terms and conditions of the Operating Partnership’s Second Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement dated as of November 23, 2004 (the “2004 Agreement”), as previously modified by an Extension and Modification Agreement dated as of September 16, 2005, a Second Modification Agreement dated as of July 14, 2006 and an Extension and Third Modification Agreement dated as of June 22, 2007 (as so modified, the “Credit Agreement”). The General Partner and certain of its subsidiaries are the guarantors of the obligations of the Operating Partnership under the Credit Agreement.

A copy of the Fourth Modification Agreement is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1.  Copies of the Extension and Third Modification Agreement, the Second Modification Agreement, the Extension and Modification Agreement and the 2004 Agreement are incorporated by reference as Exhibits 10.2 through 10.5.

In addition, on September 24, 2007, the General Partner issued a press release announcing the Operating Partnership’s expansion of the borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility.  A copy of this press release is filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1.
