Item 5. Other Events
On June 27, 2000, Prentiss Properties Trust, a Maryland real estate
investment trust ("Prentiss" or the "Company"), Prentiss Properties Acquisition
Partners, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership of which Prentiss (through a
wholly-owned direct subsidiary) is the sole general partner ("Prentiss
Partnership"), Mack-Cali Realty Corporation, a Maryland corporation ("Mack-
Cali") and Mack-Cali Realty, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership of which Mack-
Cali is the sole general partner ("Mack-Cali Partnership"), entered into an
Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement"). The Merger Agreement
provides for a merger of Prentiss with and into Mack-Cali (the "Merger"), with
Mack-Cali being the surviving corporation and, immediately prior to the Merger,
a merger of Prentiss Partnership with and into Mack-Cali Partnership (or a
limited liability company or limited partnership owned entirely directly or
indirectly by Mack-Cali Partnership) (the "Partnership Merger," and together
with the Merger, the "Mergers").
Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, Prentiss common shares will
be exchanged for Mack-Cali common shares at a fixed exchange ratio of 0.956. The
exchange ratio is not subject to change based on changes in the market prices of
either company's common stock and there is no "collar" for the exchange ratio.
Subject to certain conditions, including, without limitation,
applicable approval from the stockholders of both the Company and Mack-Cali, the
Company expects to consummate the Mergers in the fourth quarter of 2000.
To prevent the triggering of the Company's Rights Agreement, dated as
of February 6, 1998 (the "Rights Agreement"), the Company amended its Rights
Agreement. This amendment is filed herewith as Exhibit 4.1 and incorporated
herein by reference.
A description of the Mergers is contained in the June 28, 2000 press
release by the Company, filed as Exhibit 99.1 to the Company's Current Report on
Form 8-K dated June 27, 2000 and incorporated herein by reference. The Merger
Agreement is filed herewith as Exhibit 2.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
