                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                 MARCH 31, 1997
                                   (UNAUDITED)


Summary of significant accounting policies

     Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB. Accordingly,
they do not include all the information and footnotes required by generally
accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion
of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal accruals) considered
necessary for a fair presentation have been included. In addition, these
accounting principles differ in certain material respects from the accounting
practices prescribed by various insurance regulatory authorities. The results of
operations for the three months ended March 31, 1997, are not necessarily
indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The accompanying
unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31,
1996, contained in the Company's 1996 Annual Report to Shareholders. Certain
items have been reclassified to conform to the current year's presentation.

     Bonds

Bonds available for sale are carried at aggregate market value, with net
unrealized holding losses charged directly to shareholders' equity. The change
in net unrealized holding loss on bonds available for sale charged to
shareholders' equity was $268,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1997.
Realized gains and losses on the sale of bonds are recognized in operations at
the date of sale and are determined using the specific cost identification
method, in accordance with the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities."

     Income taxes

The adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 "Accounting
for Income Taxes" did not have a material effect on the financial position or
results of operations of the Company, in the first three months of 1997.

    Earnings per share

Earnings per share are computed on the basis of the weighted average number of
shares outstanding during each year. The calculation of the weighted average
number of shares outstanding includes the effect of stock equivalents arising

                           JOHN ADAMS LIFE CORPORATION

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


         In January 1997, John Adams Life Corporation (the "Company") completed
the sale to Unified Life Insurance Company ("Unified") of the 49,803.16 shares
(99.6%) of the Common Stock (the "Shares") of John Adams Life Insurance Company
of America ("JALIC") owned by the Company. As a result of the sale, the Company
through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Firingline Corporation, operates as a life
insurance sales agency.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

         The adjusted net proceeds from the sale of JALIC after deducting the
amounts due from the Company to JALIC were approximately $2,600,000. This does
not include the estimated present value of $950,000 for additional commissions
from JALIC; the additional commissions represent a 35% commission to be paid by
Unified to Firingline on certain JALIC life insurance policies. The maximum
aggregate amount of these additional commissions, which are to be paid to
Firingline as earned over the three-year period, 1997 through 1999, is
$1,200,000. Firingline will also continue to be paid renewal commissions on the
JALIC policies transferred to Unified. The amounts of any renewal commissions
and any additional commissions are primarily dependent upon the persistency of
the policies and there is no guarantee that any renewal commissions or
additional commissions will be earned.

Discontinued Operations

         The sale of JALIC, the Company's discontinued operations, closed in
January 1997, and the Company incurred expenses in the amount of approximately
$63,000 during the first quarter of 1997 in connection with its discontinued
operations.

Results of Continuing Operations

Comparison of the three month periods ended March 31, 1997 and 1996.
         The net loss in the first quarter of 1997, from the Company's
continuing operations totaled $41,000 or $.01 per share compared to a net loss
from continuing operations of $8,500 or $.00 per share for the comparable period
of 1996.

         The net loss in the first quarter of 1997 from discontinued and
continuing operations totaled $104,000 or $.04 per share compared to a net loss
of $136,000 or $.05 per share for discontinued and continuing operations in the
first quarter of 1996.

                  (the "Shares") of John Adams Life Insurance Company of America

                  the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of JALIC.

                  The purchase price for the shares based on the formula set

                  Purchase Agreement") as determined by JALIC's statutory
                  insurance accounting data was $2,970,893. This amount does not
                  include adjustments for intercompany debts and related items,
                  which have been paid by the Company. The net proceeds after

                               ADDENDUM NO. 5 TO
                           WESTSIDE TOWERS/JOHN ADAMS
                                  OFFICE LEASE

        THIS ADDENDUM NO. 5 TO WESTSIDE TOWERS/JOHN ADAMS OFFICE LEASE
("Addendum") is made as of February 7, 1997 between WESTSIDE ASSOCIATES, LTD.,
a California limited partnership ("Landlord"), and THE JOHN ADAMS LIFE
CORPORATION, a California corporation ("Tenant"), with reference to the
following facts:

        A.      Landlord and Tenant are parties to that certain Westside Towers
Office Lease dated as of August 19, 1986, as amended by Addendum No. 1 dated as
of August 20, 1986, Addendum No. 2 dated as of November 4, 1991, Addendum No. 3
dated as of June 30, 1992 and Addendum No. 4 dated as of June 15, 1993
(collectively the "Lease"), for those certain premises located at the street
address of Suite 905, 11845 W. Olympic Blvd., Los Angeles, California (the
"Premises").

        B.      Landlord and Tenant desire to provide for a decrease in the
Rentable Area of the Premises, an extension of the Lease Term and a change in
certain other terms of the Lease, as more particularly set forth herein.

        C.      The defined terms used in the Addendum shall have the meanings
set forth in the Lease, unless otherwise provided herein.

        NOW, THEREFORE, THE PARTIES HERETO AGREE AS FOLLOWS:

        1.      Term.  The Lease Term shall be renewed, solely for the "New
Premises" as more particularly described herein, for a term (the "New Premises
Lease Term") commencing March 1, 1997 and ending February 28, 1998, unless
sooner terminated pursuant to the terms of the Lease or this Addendum. Prior to
the commencement of the New Premises Lease Term, Tenant shall continue to lease
the Reduced Premises from Landlord (consisting of approximately three thousand
seven hundred twenty seven (3,727) square feet of Rentable Area) on the terms
set forth in the Lease.

        2.      Renewal Premises.  Pursuant to the terms of the Lease and this
Addendum, at all times during the New Premises Lease Term Tenant shall occupy a
portion of the Reduced Premises containing approximately 1,616 square feet of
Rentable Area on the ninth (9th) floor of the West Tower (the "New Premises") as
generally described on Exhibit C attached to this Addendum, incorporated herein
by reference.

        3.      Basic Monthly Rent.

                a.  Rental Rate.  The Basic Monthly Rent for the New Premises
shall be Two Thousand Five Hundred Eighty Five and 60/100ths Dollars ($2,585.60)
per month throughout the New Premises Lease Term.

                b.  Rent Abatement.  So long as Tenant does not continue in
default of its obligations under the Lease Agreement after the expiration
provided therein for any cure thereof, Tenant shall be entitled to abatement of
the Basic Monthly Rent with respect to the New Premises for the month of March
1997; provided, however, in the event of a default by Tenant under the terms of
the Lease or this Addendum, which default remains uncured after the expiration
of any applicable grace period, then as a part of the recovery set forth in
Section 18.2.A of the Lease, Landlord shall be entitled to the recovery of the
Basic Monthly Rent that was abated under the provisions of this Section 8, and
such Basic Monthly Rent shall not be deemed to have been

                                      -1-
<PAGE>   2
forgiven or abated, but shall become immediately due and payable as unpaid Rent
which had been earned at the time of termination.

        4.      Tenant's Proportionate Share.  During the New Premises Lease
Term, "Tenant's Proportionate Share", determined by dividing the Rentable Area
of the New Premises by the Rentable Area of the Building, shall be 0.40%. Tenant
shall pay to Landlord throughout the New Premises Lease Term Tenant's
Proportionate Share of the amount by which the Costs of Operation and
Maintenance of the Building exceed the Base Costs as established in Section 4 of
the Third Addendum.

        5.      Construction of Alterations to New Premises.  Tenant shall
accept the New Premises in their "as is" physical condition as of the
commencement of the New Premises Lease Term. Concurrently with the execution and
delivery hereof Tenant shall pay to Landlord the sum of Five Thousand Two
Hundred Dollars ($5,200) as payment for the tenant improvement work required to
separate the New Premises from the remainder of the Reduced Premises, including
(a) installing a new demising wall in the approximate location indicated on the
space plan attached to this Addendum as Exhibit C, (b) separating the electrical
service, mechanical, HVAC and fire sprinklers for the New Premises from the
remainder of the Reduced Premises, (c) relocating lighting and fire sprinklers
within the New Premises and the remainder of the Reduced Premises which are
physically impacted by the installation of the new demising wall, and (d)
painting both sides of the new demising wall with one (1) coat of building
standard paint to match existing color of the New Premises and installing
building standard base on both sides of the new demising wall. All such work
shall be performed in accordance with the requirements of the Lease and shall be
performed by Landlord's contractor.

        6.      Acknowledgement.  Tenant acknowledges that Landlord previously
issued a warning to Tenant, to the effect that Landlord has received numerous
complaints regarding smoking with the Premises. Tenant acknowledges and agrees
that smoking within the Premises (and elsewhere within the Building) is a
violation of applicable laws, and that such activity therefore constitutes a
material breach of the Lease by Tenant. From and after the date hereof Tenant
agrees to cause its employees, contractors, invitees, licensees and all other
occupants of the Premises to comply with applicable laws prohibiting smoking
within the Building and the Premises, and Tenant acknowledges and agrees that
Tenant's failure to do so shall constitute a material breach of the Lease and
this Addendum by Tenant, affording Landlord all rights and remedies permitted
under the Lease in the event of such breach by Tenant. Tenant further
acknowledges and agrees that Landlord's failure to previously declare Tenant in
breach of the Lease due to such smoking activity shall not be deemed a waiver of
Landlord's right to declare Tenant in breach of the Lease in the future should
any of Tenant's employees, contractors, invitees, licensees or other occupants
of the Premises fail, following the date hereof, to comply with applicable laws
prohibiting smoking within the Premises and the Building.

        7.      Alternative Space.  At any time after Tenant's execution of this
Addendum, Landlord shall have the right, upon providing Tenant thirty (30) days
prior written notice, to provide and furnish tenant with space elsewhere in the
Building of approximately the same size as the New Premises, and to move and
place Tenant in such new space at Landlord's expense. In the event Landlord
moves Tenant to such new space, then the Lease and this Addendum, and each and
all of the terms and covenants and conditions thereof and hereof, shall
thereupon remain in full force and effect and be deemed applicable to such new
space except that a revised Exhibit C shall become part of the Lease and shall
reflect the location of the new space, and the Fundamental Lease Provisions of
this Lease shall be amended to include and state all correct data as to the new
space.

                                      -2-
<PAGE>   3
        8.      Construction Matters.  Tenant shall cooperate with Landlord's
construction schedule and Landlord will endeavor to give Tenant advance notice
as to when it will be required to vacate portions of the Tenant's space to
accommodate that construction.

        9.      Ratification.  Except as specifically provided in this Addendum,
all of the terms and conditions of the Lease, including without limitation those
relating to the time and manner of payment of Rent, expenses and parking
charges, shall apply to Tenant's rental of the New Premises during the New
Premises Lease Term, and all references to the Premises and provisions relating
thereto contained in the Lease shall refer to the New Premises during the New
Premises Lease Term and are incorporated herein by reference. Except as
otherwise specifically provided herein, all of the terms, definitions, covenants
and conditions of the Lease are hereby ratified, confirmed and remain in full
force and effect, and are incorporated into this Addendum. This Addendum and the
Lease supersede in their entirety any and all prior written and oral agreements
and understandings of the parties pertaining to the New Premises Lease Term,
including without limitation that certain Letter of Intent dated December 10,
1996 written by Landlord to Tenant.

        IN WITNESS WHEREOF the parties have executed this Addendum as of the
date and year first written above.
