This Form 8-K/A amends and supplements the Form 8-K dated August 14, 1998
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 28, 1998, relating
to the acquisition by the Company of four hotels located in Ohio from sellers
commonly controlled by Michael Gallucci, Jr. of Akron Ohio (the "Cornerstone
Hotel Group"). This Form 8-K/A contains the information referred to in Item 7 of
the Form 8-K.
ITEM 7. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION AND EXHIBITS
(a) Material Factors in the Acquisition of the Cornerstone Hotel Group and
Financial Statements of Businesses Acquired
For the audited financial statements of the Cornerstone Hotel Group,
see the Index to Financial Statements and Pro Forma Financial
Information below.
The four hotel properties of the Cornerstone Hotel Group, and material
factors assessed by Janus in determining to make the acquisition, are
described below:
(1) Holiday Inn Independence is a 364 room full service hotel located near
downtown Cleveland and the Hopkins International Airport at the intersection of
Interstate Highway 77 and State Route 480. The purchase price was $21,807,000.
The average daily rate charged per room and the annual occupancy
percentages are as follows:
6/30/98 12/31/97 12/31/96 12/31/95 12/31/94
------- -------- -------- -------- --------
ADR $82.93 $82.68 $76.43 $73.43 $68.51
OCC% 62.8% 65.3% 64% 68% 65.1%
Based upon an analysis of competition in the market, management of Janus
determined that there was considerable upside potential for a rate increase and
potential expense savings in the area of housekeeping and marketing.
Management of Janus concluded that a rate increase could be sustained in
the market because the quality of the rooms were good, compared to the
competition, as a result of a recently completed renovation program of
approximately $2,000,000. In addition, as a condition of the licensing agreement
with Holiday Hospitality Franchising, Inc. ("Holiday Inn"), the property will be
subject to a product improvement plan at an approximate cost of $904,970.
All other operating expenses should remain stable, including repair and
maintenance and real estate taxes.
(2) Holiday Inn Hudson is a 289 room full service hotel located off Exit
189 of the Ohio Turnpike between Cleveland and Akron about 15 miles from Sea
World, a visitor attraction. The purchase price was $13,369,350.

<PAGE>
The average daily rate and occupancy percentages are as follows:
6/30/98 12/31/97 12/31/96 12/31/95 12/31/94
------ -------- -------- -------- --------
ADR $73.72 $69.87 $65.08 $60.97 $59.69
OCC% 62.4% 65.7% 64.2% 73.8% 67.5%
Based upon an analysis of competition in the area and the current mix of
corporate and tourist business at this location, management of Janus determined
that managing the rate yield between these two market segments could generate
additional profitability as the rate charged to the tourist was well below the
current market rate.
In addition, a capital improvement program costing approximately $2,500,000
had recently been completed at the property, resulting in a higher room quality
than the competition. Moreover, as a condition of the licensing agreement with
Holiday Inn, the property will be subject to a product improvement plan at an
approximate cost of $1,129,927.
All other operating expenses, with the exception of housekeeping, should
remain stable, including repairs and maintenance and real estate taxes.
(3) Holiday Inn North Canton is a 194 room full service hotel located three
miles from downtown Canton off Interstate Highway 77. The purchase price was
$5,454,250.
The average daily rate and occupancy percentages are as follows:
6/30/98 12/31/97 12/31/96 12/31/95 12/31/94
------- -------- -------- -------- --------
ADR $58.10 $53.78 $53.63 $50.87 $51.39
OCC% 76% 73% 75.6% 77.4% 66.6%
The property has a mix of tourist and corporate business. Management of
Janus concluded that a rate increase could be sustained in the market because
the quality of the rooms were good, compared to the competition, as a result of
a recently completed capital improvement program of approximately $1,500,000.
In addition, as a condition of the licensing agreement with Holiday Inn,
the property will be subject to a product improvement plan at an approximate
cost of $327,613.
All other operating expenses, with the exception of housekeeping, should
remain stable, including repairs and maintenance and real estate taxes.
(4) Comfort West Montrose is a 132 room limited feature hotel located north
of Akron off Exit 137 of Interstate 77. The purchase price was $3,479,900.

<PAGE>
The average daily rate and occupancy percentages are as follows:
6/30/98 12/31/97 12/31/96 12/31/95 12/31/94
------- -------- -------- -------- --------
ADR $55.41 $56.66 $56.47 $55.31 $50.50
OCC% 63% 61.5% 68.9% 73% 75.6%
After a review of the market, it was determined by management of Janus that
the Comfort Inn had lost market share as a result of additional competition and
the lateness of prior management in responding with a capital improvement
program to improve product quality. Prior management had implemented a product
improvement program in late 1997 which was completed shortly before the
acquisition of the property by Janus. Janus' management determined that with the
improvement in product quality, room rate and occupancy could be increased.
Choice Hotels International, Inc., the licensor of the "Comfort Inn" name,
requires minimum modifications in order to maintain the Comfort Inn license.
Repair and maintenance expenses may increase as a result of required
deferred maintenance. All other operating expenses, with the exception of front
desk and housekeeping costs, should remain stable including real estate taxes.
The product improvement plans to be implemented as a requirement of the
Holiday Inn licensing agreement were included in the purchase prices for the
three applicable properties and 100% of the estimated costs were escrowed at
closing.

Akron, Ohio
We have audited the accompanying combined balance sheet of the Cornerstone Hotel
Group (the "Company") as of December 31, 1997, and the related combined
statements of income, equity and cash flows for the year then ended. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these combined financial statements

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the combined financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the combined financial statements. An audit also
includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made
by management, as well as evaluating the overall combined financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our
opinion.
In our opinion, the combined financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of

following entities: Galburton Inn, Inc., North Canton Operating Corporation,
North Canton Properties, Rockside Road Operating Corporation, Rockside Road
