                 JANUS HOTELS AND RESORTS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
              NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



Note 1 -- Unaudited interim financial statements:

         In the opinion of management,  the accompanying  unaudited consolidated
         financial  statements  reflect all  adjustments,  consisting  of normal
         recurring accruals,  necessary to present fairly the financial position
         of Janus Hotels and Resorts,  Inc. and  subsidiaries  (the "Company" or
         "Janus") as of June 30, 2000,  its results of operations  for the three
         months and six months  ended June 30,  2000 and 1999 and its cash flows
         for the six months ended June 30, 2000.  Certain  terms used herein are
         defined in the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company
         for the year ended  December  31, 1999 (the  "Audited  Janus  Financial
         Statements")  included in the Company's  form 10-KSB  previously  filed
         with  the  Securities  and  Exchange  Commission.   Accordingly,  these
         unaudited   consolidated   financial   statements  should  be  read  in
         conjunction  with the Audited Janus Financial  Statements and the other
         financial statements included in the Form 10-KSB.

         The results of  operations  for the six months  ended June 30, 2000 are
         not  necessarily  indicative of the results of operations  for the full
         year ending December 31, 2000.

Note 2 -- Organization:

         As of June 30, 2000, the Company owned and operated  fifteen hotels (of
         which thirteen are wholly-owned, one is 85% owned and one is 75% owned)
         and a hotel  management  company  which  manages  hotels for  unrelated
         parties.

Note 3 - Resignation of the Company President:

         Effective  April 30, 2000, the President of the Company  resigned.  The
         cost of the severance package was a cash payment of $500,000.

Note 4 - Disposal of Hotel Property:

         On June 15, 2000, the Company  disposed of a hotel property  located in
         Cincinnati,  Ohio.  The  hotel  was  sold for  cash of  $2,700,000  and
         resulted in a gain of $29,893 for financial reporting purposes. For tax
         purposes,  this transaction produced an estimated gain of approximately
         $978,000 which cannot be offset by the Company's  federal net operating
         loss carryforward.  As a result, the tax provision for the three months
         and six months  ended June 30,  2000  includes  $333,000  of  currently
         payable federal income taxes related to this transaction.

Note 5 -- Litigation:

         The Company is a party to various legal proceedings.  In the opinion of
         management,  these  actions  are  routine in nature and will not have a
         material  adverse  effect  on  the  Company's   consolidated  financial
         statements in subsequent years.

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS

Overview

The operations of the Company are comprised primarily of the operations of owned
hotels and the Company's management of hotels owned by third parties.

The Company had net income of $428,077  for the three months ended June 30, 2000
compared to net income of $909,536 for the three months ended June 30,  1999.The
Company  had net  income of  $539,068  for the six months  ended  June 30,  2000
compared to net income of $313,981 for the six months ended June 30, 1999.

Three  Months  Ended June 30, 2000  Compared to the Three  Months Ended June 30,
1999

Room and related  services  revenue  decreased  6.5% to  $9,629,358 in 2000 from
$10,297,407  in 1999.  The decrease  was  attributable  primarily to  properties
disposed of in 2000 and 1999.  The average daily room rate  (excluding  disposed
properties)  increased  to  $62.38  for 2000  from  $61.45  in  1999.  Occupancy
(excluding disposed properties) decreased in 2000 to 66.5% from 67.8%. Excluding
the properties  disposed of in 2000 and 1999, room and related  services revenue
decreased 0.6%.

Food and beverage  revenues are  principally  a function of the number of guests
who stay at each owned hotel,  local walk-in business and catering sales.  These
revenues  decreased  1.0% to  $2,676,502 in 2000 from  $2,702,697 in 1999.  This
decrease is related primarily to decreased occupancy. The properties disposed of
in 2000 and 1999 had no effect on food and beverage revenues.

Management fee income increased 74.9% to $806,414 in 2000 from $460,965 in 1999.
This  increase is primarily  due to the  addition of new third party  management
contracts. In addition,  one-time fees of approximately $55,000 were realized in
the second quarter of 2000.

Total  direct  operating  expenses  decreased  3.0% to  $4,928,700  in 2000 from
$5,082,324 in 1999 and  increased as a percentage  of room and related  services
and food and beverage  revenues to 40.1% from 39.1%.  Excluding  the  properties
disposed of in 2000 and 1999, total direct operating expenses increased 0.4%.

Occupancy  expenses  decreased  11.0% to  $1,535,377  from  $1,725,823  in 1999.
Excluding  the  properties  disposed  of in 2000 and  1999,  occupancy  expenses
decreased 5.0%.

Selling,  general and  administrative  expenses  decreased 3.8% to $2,877,631 in
2000 from  $2,990,647 in 1999 and decreased as a percentage of total revenues to
21.5%  from  21.9%.  Excluding  the  properties  disposed  of in 2000 and  1999,
selling, general and administrative expenses decreased 1.0%.

Depreciation decreased by $476,195 in 2000 from $1,324,775 in 1999. The decrease
was  primarily  attributable  to the  change  in  estimated  useful  lives,  the
adjustment  of the purchase  allocation  for four hotel  properties  based on an
acquisition  appraisal,  and the cessation of depreciation on one hotel property
held for sale.

Interest income increased to $195,167 in 2000 from $167,120 in 1999.

Interest  expense  decreased to $1,543,697 in 2000 from  $1,676,134 in 1999. The
decrease  was  attributable  to the  properties  disposed  of in  1999,  minimal
short-term   borrowings   in  the  second   quarter  of  2000  and   traditional
amortization.

The provision for income taxes in the second  quarter of 2000 includes  $333,000
related to the disposal of a hotel property.  The taxable gain realized from the
transaction cannot be offset by the Company's net operating loss carryforward.

Minority  interest  increased to $34,936 in 2000 from $24,259 in 1999 reflecting
the results of operations  from the Kings Dominion  partnership and the Days Inn
Pompano hotel in 2000.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2000 Compared to the Six Months Ended June 30, 1999

Room and related  services  revenue  decreased  4.2% to $16,991,005 in 2000 from
$17,733,915  in 1999.  The decrease  was  attributable  primarily to  properties
disposed of in 2000 and 1999.  The average daily room rate  (excluding  disposed



                                       8

properties)  decreased  to  $60.64  for 2000  from  $60.78  in  1999.  Occupancy
(excluding disposed properties) increased in 2000 to 60.3% from 59.7%. Excluding
the properties  disposed of in 2000 and 1999, room and related  services revenue
increased 1.2%.

Food and beverage revenues  increased 2.1% to $5,191,701 in 2000 from $5,084,482
in 1999.  This  increase  is  related  primarily  to  increased  occupancy.  The
properties  disposed  of in 2000  and 1999 had no  effect  on food and  beverage
revenues.

Management fee income  increased  62.7% to $1,663,997 in 2000 from $1,022,958 in
1999.  This  increase  is  primarily  due to the  addition  of new  third  party
management contracts. In addition,  one-time fees of approximately $124,000 were
realized in the first six months of 2000.

Total  direct  operating  expenses  decreased  0.8% to  $9,251,455  in 2000 from
$9,322,563 in 1999 and  increased as a percentage  of room and related  services
and food and beverage  revenues to 41.7% from 40.9%.  Excluding  the  properties
disposed of in 2000 and 1999, total direct operating expenses increased 2.5%.

Occupancy  expenses  decreased  6.3% to  $3,132,187  from  $3,343,550  in  1999.
Excluding  the  properties  disposed  of in 2000 and  1999,  occupancy  expenses
increased 0.6% as utility costs  increased and  maintenance  projects at various
hotels were completed.

Selling,  general and  administrative  expenses  decreased 0.8% to $5,462,629 in
2000 from  $5,508,737 in 1999 and decreased as a percentage of total revenues to
22.5%  from  22.7%.  Excluding  the  properties  disposed  of in 2000 and  1999,
selling,  general  and  administrative  expenses  increased  2.0% as  additional
regional  management  personnel  were  required  to manage the new hotels  under
contract.

Depreciation decreased by $921,621 in 2000 from $2,599,821 in 1999. The decrease
was  primarily  attributable  to the  change  in  estimated  useful  lives,  the
adjustment  of the purchase  allocation  for four hotel  properties  based on an
acquisition  appraisal,  and the cessation of depreciation on one hotel property
held for sale.

Interest income increased to $372,395 in 2000 from $364,168 in 1999.

Interest  expense  decreased to $3,075,261 in 2000 from  $3,347,204 in 1999. The
decrease  was  attributable  to the  properties  disposed  of in  1999,  minimal
short-term   borrowings  in  the  first  six  months  of  2000  and  traditional
amortization.

The provision for income taxes in the first six months of 2000 includes $333,000
related to the disposal of a hotel property.  The taxable gain realized from the
transaction cannot be offset by the Company's net operating loss carryforward.

Minority  interest  increased to $38,512 in 2000 from $34,082 in 1999 reflecting
the results of operations  from the Kings Dominion  partnership and the Days Inn
Pompano hotel in 2000.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Total assets  decreased to  $125,770,541  at June 30, 2000 from  $127,692,489 at
December 31, 1999.

Net cash  provided by operating  activities  decreased to  $1,918,246 in the six
months  ended June 30,  2000 from  $2,755,788  in the six months  ended June 30,
1999. The decrease is primarily the result of lower  depreciation,  the increase
in  accounts  receivable  and the  decrease  in  accounts  payable  and  accrued
expenses.

Net cash provided by investing  activities  was $864,811 in the six months ended
June 30, 2000 compared to cash used in investing activities of $2,263,452 in the
six  months  ended  June 30,  1999.  The  Company  plans to spend an  additional
$582,000 on capital improvements during the remainder of 2000.

Net cash used in financing  activities  was  $3,006,432  in the six months ended
June 30, 2000  compared to  $3,224,063  used by financing  activities in the six
months ended June 30, 1999.  The change is the result of higher debt  repayments
which were offset by a decrease in restricted cash.

Earnings  before  interest,  taxes,  depreciation  and  amortization  ("EBITDA")
decreased to  $5,979,735  during the six months ended June 30, 2000  compared to
$6,083,648  for the six  months  ended  June 30,  1999.  EBITDA  is  defined  as
operating income plus depreciation and amortization.  The Company considers this
definition  of EBITDA to be an  indicative  measure of the  Company's  operating


                                       9

performance because it can be used to measure the Company's abilities to service
debt, fund capital expenditures and expand its business; such information should
not be considered as an alternative to net income,  operating profit, cash flows
from  operations  or any other  operating or  liquidity  measure  prescribed  by
generally accepted accounting principles.

The Company maintains a number of commercial banking relationships and maintains
aggregate lines of credit totaling  $2,200,000,  which had no amount outstanding
at June 30, 2000.

The Company's  principal sources of liquidity are cash on hand (including escrow
deposits and replacement reserves),  cash from operations,  earnings on invested
cash and, when required, principally in connection with acquisitions, borrowings
(consisting primarily of loans secured by mortgages on real property owned or to
be acquired by the Company).  The  Company's  continuing  operations  are funded
through cash generated  from its hotel  operations.  Acquisitions  of hotels are
expected  to be  financed  through  a  combination  of cash on hand,  internally
generated cash,  issuance of equity securities and borrowings,  some of which is
likely to be secured by assets of the Company.

Seasonality

Demand at many of the Company's hotels is affected by seasonal patterns.  Demand
for hotel rooms in the industry generally tends to be lower during the first and
fourth  quarters and higher in the second and third quarters.  Accordingly,  the
Company's revenues reflect similar seasonality.

Exchange Commission, in the Company's press releases and in oral statements made
