                 ADAMS OUTDOOR ADVERTISING LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
              NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                              SEPTEMBER 30, 1999
                                  (UNAUDITED)

(1) Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein
have been prepared by Adams Outdoor Advertising Limited Partnership (the
"Company") in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q and therefore, do
not include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of
financial position, results of operations, and cash flows in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles. However, in the opinion of management,
all adjustments, which consist of normal recurring accruals necessary for a fair
presentation of the information for the periods described, have been made.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles have been considered or omitted pursuant to such rules and
regulations.  Although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to
make the information presented not misleading, it is suggested that these
consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the Company's 1998
Annual Report on Form 10-K.  Certain reclassifications have been made to prior
year amounts to conform with the current year presentation.


(2) Reorganization and Offering

In May 1999, the Partnerships' majority partner contributed his direct and
indirect interests in the Company and Adams Outdoor Advertising Inc. to a newly
formed Limited Liability Company, AOA Holding LLC ("AOA Holding".) Following the
reorganization, AOA Holding and its 100% owned subsidiary, AOA Capital Corp.,
issued $50 million of 10 3/8% Senior Notes due 2006.  The net proceeds from the
offering were used by AOA Holding to make a distribution to its sole member, to
repay $13.5 million of indebtedness of the Company, and to make a $2.5 million
payment to the minority limited partner.  Amounts loaned to the Company are non-
interest bearing and are reflected as Advances from AOA Holding LLC in the
accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

In connection with the reorganization, the partnership agreement was amended to
provide that the limited partnership interest of AOA Holding LLC become a
"priority" interest whereby all limited partner distributions (other than
permitted tax distributions) will be made only to AOA Holding until the notes
are paid in full.  In recognition of the change in the partnership agreement,
the company paid to the minority limited partners approximately $2.5 million,
which has been reflected as Other Expense in the accompanying consolidated
statements of operations.

                     NOTES TO INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                               September 30, 1999
                                  (Unaudited)
(1) Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited financial statements included herein have been
prepared by Adams Outdoor Advertising, Inc.  ("AOAI") in accordance with the
instructions for Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not include all information and
footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of
operations, and cash flows in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles. However, in the opinion of management, all adjustments, which
consist of normal recurring accruals necessary for a fair presentation of the
information for the periods described, have been made.  Certain information and
footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been considered or
omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations.  Although AOAI believes that the
disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading, it is
suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction with AOAI's
1998 Annual Report on Form 10-K.


(2) Reorganization and Offering

In May 1999, the Partnerships' majority partner contributed his direct and
indirect interests in Adams Outdoor Advertising Limited Partnership ("AOALP")
and AOAI to a newly formed Limited Liability Company, AOA Holding LLC ("AOA
Holding".) Following the reorganization, AOA Holding and its 100% owned
subsidiary AOA Capital Corp. issued $50 million of 10 3/8% Senior Notes due
2006.  The net proceeds from the offering were used by AOA Holding to make a
distribution to its sole member, to repay $13.5 million of indebtedness of
AOALP, and to make a $2.5 million payment to the minority limited partner.

In connection with the reorganization, the partnership agreement was amended to
provide that the limited partnership interest of AOA Holding LLC become a
"priority" interest whereby all limited partner distributions (other than
permitted tax distributions) will be made only to AOA Holding until the notes
are paid in full.  In recognition of the change in the partnership agreement,
the company paid to the minority limited partners approximately $2.5 million.

Item 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
         CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Except for its interests and activities as managing general partner of Adams
Outdoor Advertising Limited Partnership (the "Company"), Adams Outdoor
Advertising, Inc. ("AOAI") has nominal assets and does not conduct any
operations. Accordingly, the following "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations" relate to the Company and the
consolidated financial statements of the Company included in this filing.

Certain matters discussed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are "forward-
looking statements" intended to qualify for the safe harbors from liability
established by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  These
forward-looking statements can generally be identified as such because the
context of the statement will include forward-looking terminology such as
"believes," "anticipates," "expects,"  "would," "estimate," "continue," or the
negative thereof or variations thereon or comparable terminology.  Similarly,
statements that describe the Company's future plans, objectives or goals are
also forward-looking statements.  Such forward-looking statements are subject to
certain risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ
materially from those anticipated as of the date of this report.  Certain of
such risks and uncertainties are described in close proximity to such forward-
looking statements.  Other factors that could affect such results, performance
or achievement are set forth in "Risk Factors" in Amendment No. 3 to the
Company's Registration Statement on Form S-4 (Registration No. 33303338) as
updated by the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December
31, 1998 including those risks to the Company presented by financial leverage,
government regulation with respect to zoning, restrictions on outdoor
advertising by the tobacco industry, competition and general economic
conditions.



Results of Operations

Quarter Ended September 30, 1999 Compared With Quarter Ended September 30, 1998
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Net revenues (gross revenues net of agency commissions) for the quarter ended
September 30, 1999 of $18.4 million increased by 7.2% from $17.1 million for the
comparable period in 1998.  This increase resulted from higher advertising rates
and an increase in the number of displays sold.

Direct advertising expenses for the quarter ended September 30, 1999 of $8.5
million increased by 3.3% from $8.2 million for the comparable period in 1998.
The increase was attributable to direct costs associated with increased sales
from new displays and an increase in sales commissions due to higher average
rates.

                                       9
<PAGE>

Corporate, general and administrative expenses for the quarter ended September
30, 1999 of $946,000 decreased by 11.4% from $1.1 million for the comparable
period in 1998. This decrease was attributable to a decrease in professional
fees, travel expenses and costs associated with the new Company logo and
identification project in 1998.

Depreciation and amortization for the quarter ended September 30, 1999 of $1.4
million decreased by 32.7 % from $2.1 million for the comparable period in 1998.
Depreciation expense decreased due to structures which became fully depreciated
at the end of 1998.

Deferred compensation expense for the quarter ended September 30, 1999 of
$360,000 increased significantly from $203,000 for the comparable period in 1998
primarily due to increased Operating Income and vesting and the reinstatement of
the CEO into the plan.

Interest expense for the quarter ended September 30, 1999 of $3.2 million
decreased by 9.0% from $3.6 million for the third quarter of 1998.  For the
quarters ended September 30, 1999 and September 30, 1998, the effective interest
rate was 10.0% on average outstanding balances of  $123.8 million and  $137.3
million, respectively.

During the quarter ended September 30, 1999, the Company incurred an
extraordinary loss of $194,000 on the early extinguishment of $3.3 million of
its Senior Notes.

Net income for the quarter ended September 30, 1999 increased to $3.8 million
from $1.6 million for the comparable period in 1998 as a result of the items
discussed above.



Results of Operations

Nine Months Ended September 30, 1999 Compared With Nine Months Ended September
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
30, 1998
- --------

Net revenues (gross revenues net of agency commissions) for the nine months
ended September 30, 1999 of $51.0 million increased by 6.1% from $48.1 million
for the comparable period in 1998.  This increase resulted from higher
advertising rates and an increase in the number of displays sold.

Direct advertising expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 of
$24.8 million increased by 5.0% from $23.6 million for the comparable period in
1998.  The increase was attributable to direct costs associated with increased
sales from new displays and an increase in sales commissions due to higher
average rates.

Corporate, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended
September 30, 1999 of $2.2 million decreased by 29.4% from $3.2 million for the
comparable period in 1998.  This decrease was attributable to a decrease in
professional fees, travel expenses and costs associated with the new Company
logo and identification project in 1998.

                                      10
<PAGE>

Depreciation and amortization for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 of
$5.2 million decreased by 17.1 % from $6.2 million for the comparable period in
1998. Depreciation expense decreased due to structures which became fully
depreciated at the end of 1998.

Deferred compensation expense for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 of
$1.2 million increased significantly from $533,000 for the comparable period in
1998 primarily due to increased Operating Income and vesting and the
reinstatement of the CEO into the plan.

Interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 of $10.1 million
decreased by 7.0% from $10.9 million for the comparable period in 1998. For the
nine months ended September 30, 1999 and September 30, 1998, the effective
interest rates were 10.0% and 10.2%, respectively, on average outstanding
balances of  $129.7 million and  $137.1 million, respectively.

During the nine months ended September 30, 1999, the Company incurred an
extraordinary loss of $194,000 on the early extinguishment of $3.3 million of
its Senior Notes.

Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 increased to $4.9
million from $3.2 million for the comparable period in 1998 as a result of the
items discussed above.


Operating Cash Flow is defined as operating income (loss) before (i)
depreciation and amortization expenses and (ii) deferred compensation expense.
As a partnership, the Company is not subject to federal corporate income tax.
Operating Cash Flow is not intended to represent net cash provided by operating
activities as defined by generally accepted accounting principles and should not
be considered as an alternative to net income or loss as an indicator of the
Company's operating performance or to net cash provided by operating, investing
and financing activities as a measure of liquidity or ability to meet cash
needs.  The Company believes Operating Cash Flow is a measure commonly reported
and widely used by analysts, investors and other interested parties in the media
industry.  Accordingly, this information is disclosed herein to permit a more
complete comparative analysis of the Company's performance relative to other
companies in the media industry.  Operating Cash Flow for the nine months ended
September 30, 1999 of $24.0 million increased by 12.5% from $21.3 million for
the comparable period in 1998. Operating Cash Flow for the quarter ended
September 30, 1999 of $8.9 million increased by 13.7% from $7.8 million for the
comparable period in 1998.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

In 1996, the Company, together with its managing general partner, AOAI, placed
$105,000,000 of their 10 3/4% Senior Notes due 2006 issued under an indenture
(the "Indenture") and entered into a Credit Facility (the "Credit Facility). As
part of the refinancing, substantially all of the Company's outstanding debt was
refinanced.  As a result of the refinancing, the average maturities of the
Company's debt were extended to 2006.

Historically, the Company's cash needs have arisen from operating expenses
(primarily direct advertising expenses and corporate general and administrative
expenses), debt service, capital

                                      11
<PAGE>

expenditures and deferred compensation payments under phantom stock agreements.
As a result of the refinancing, the Company's interest expense has increased due
to the higher weighted average interest rate.

The Company's primary sources of cash are net cash generated from operating
activities and borrowings under the Credit Facility.  The Company's net cash
provided by operations decreased significantly to $2.7 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 1999 from $4.4 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 1998.

The Company expects that its capital expenditures during 1999 will be
approximately $9.0 million and will be primarily for new billboard construction
and the upgrading of existing displays. The Company made capital expenditures of
$7.1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 1999 compared to $8.2
million during the nine months ended September 30, 1998.

At September 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998, the Company's accrued liability for
deferred compensation payable under phantom stock agreements with key employees
was $3.2 million and $6.3 million, respectively, in the aggregate. The Credit
Facility and the Indenture permit the payment of the deferred compensation when
due, subject to certain annual limitations.  Such payments are scheduled to be
paid during the 1998 through 2002 period.  During the nine months ended
September 30, 1999, payments of deferred compensation totaled $4.0 million.

The Company has revolving credit facilities of up to $43.0 million, $35 million
secured and $8 million unsecured.  At September 30, 1999, the outstanding
borrowings were $28.6 million. Substantially all of the assets of the Company
are pledged to secure indebtedness under the secured credit facility. The
agreement governing the secured credit facility contains a number of covenants
that are more restrictive than those contained in the Indenture, including
covenants requiring the Company to maintain certain financial ratios that become
more restrictive over time.  Adverse operating results could cause noncompliance
with one or more of these covenants, reducing the Company's borrowing
availability and, in certain circumstances, entitling the lenders to accelerate
the maturity of outstanding borrowings.

The Company believes that net cash provided from operations and available credit
under its credit facilities will be sufficient to meet its cash needs for its
current operations, required debt payments, anticipated capital expenditures and
deferred compensation payments for the next twelve months.


Impact of Inflation

Though increases in operating costs could adversely affect the Company's
operations, management does not believe that inflation has had a material effect
on operating income during the past several years.

                                      12
<PAGE>

Seasonality

Although revenues during the first and fourth quarter are slightly lower than
the other quarters, management does not believe that seasonality has a
significant impact on the operations or cash flow of the Company.

Information contained in this 10-Q including, without limitation, in the
foregoing Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations may contain "forward-looking statements" within the
meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, which can be
identified by the use of forward-looking terminology as "may," "will," "would,"
"expect," "anticipate," "estimate," or "continue" or the negative thereof or
other variations thereon or comparable terminology.  Certain factors, including
financial leverage, government regulation with respect to zoning and
restrictions on outdoor advertising by the tobacco industry, competition and
general economic condition could cause actual results to differ materially from
those in such forward-looking statements.



Year 2000 Compliance

Overview

  The "Year 2000 issue" is a general term used to describe the various problems
that may result from the improper processing of dates and date-sensitive
calculations by computers and other machinery as the year 2000 approaches.  The
Year 2000 issue exists because many existing computer systems and software
products have been written using two digits, rather than four, to define the
applicable year, thus not properly recognizing dates after December 31, 1999.

Company's State of Readiness

    The Company recognizes the need to ensure that its operations will not be
adversely impacted by Year 2000 software failures and has therefore undertaken
the project of identifying and resolving its Year 2000 issues.  The Company's
assessment included both its software and hardware.  The Company has identified
all significant applications that require modification to ensure Year 2000
compliance and during the second quarter of 1998, Year 2000 compliant versions
of these programs (primarily financial applications) were installed.  The vendor
upgrades have been tested and certified as Year 2000 compliant by an independent
third party.

  In addition, the Company has communicated with others with whom it does
significant business to determine their Year 2000 Compliance readiness and the
extent to which the Company is vulnerable to any third party Year 2000 issues.
The Company's principal suppliers are local power companies.  However, there can
be no guarantee that the systems of other companies on which the Company's
systems rely will be timely converted, or that a failure to convert by another
company, or a conversion that is incompatible with the Company's systems, would
not have a material adverse effect on the Company.  Certain power companies may

                                      13
<PAGE>

experience problems supplying power to us.  If that occurs, our only liability
will be to issue immaterial illumination credits.


Costs to Address the Company's Year 2000 Issues

  During 1998, the Company incurred approximately $150,000 in Year 2000
compliance efforts and estimates of additional costs to complete its Year 2000
compliance plan are not anticipated to be material to the Company's financial
condition or results of operations. No costs have been incurred during 1999.


Risks of the Company's Year 2000 Issues and the Company's Contingency Plans

  Based on the results of its review of Year 2000 issues to date and compliance
efforts completed, the Company does not believe that the Year 2000 issue
presents a significant risk of disruption of the Company's ability to transact
business with its major customers and suppliers.  Therefore, the Company does
not believe that a contingency plan to handle Year 2000 problems is necessary at
this time and has not yet developed such a plan.  The Company will, however,
continue to monitor the Year 2000 issues and evaluate the need for a contingency
plan to handle the most reasonably likely worst case Year 2000 scenario.


New Accounting Standards

  In September 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." In July 1999, the FASB issued
SFAS No. 137, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities -
Deferral of Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 133 - An Amendment to FASB
Statement No. 133.  This statement delayed the effective date of SFAS No. 133
for one year and is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2001.  This
statement establishes accounting and reporting standards requiring that every
derivative instrument (including certain instruments embedded in other
contracts) be recorded in the balance sheet as either an asset or a liability
measured at its fair value.  The statement requires that changes in the
derivative's fair value be recognized currently in earnings unless specific
hedge accounting criteria are met.  The Company has not yet quantified the
impact of adopting SFAS No. 133 and has not determined the timing or method of
its adoption, however it is not expected that adoption will have a material
impact on earnings.
