                       JONES CABLE INCOME FUND 1-C, LTD.
                       ---------------------------------
                            (A Limited Partnership)

             NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
             ----------------------------------------------------

(1)     This Form 10-Q is being filed in conformity with the SEC requirements
for unaudited financial statements and does not contain all of the necessary
footnote disclosures required for a complete presentation of the Balance Sheets
and Statements of Operations and Cash Flows in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles. However, in the opinion of management, this data
includes all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring accruals,
necessary to present fairly the financial position of Jones Cable Income Fund 1-
C, Ltd. (the "Partnership") at March 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999 and its
Statements of Operations and Cash Flows for the three month periods ended
March 31, 2000 and 1999. Certain prior year amounts were reclassified to conform
to the 2000 presentation.

        The accompanying consolidated financial statements include 100 percent
of the accounts of the Partnership and those of Jones Cable Income Fund 1-B/C
Venture (the "Venture") reduced by the 40 percent minority interest in the
Venture owned by Jones Cable Income Fund 1-B, Ltd. ("Fund 1-B"). All
interpartnership accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Neither the
Partnership nor the Venture currently own any cable television systems. The
Partnership and the Venture are expected to be dissolved in 2000.

        On April 7, 1999, Comcast Corporation ("Comcast") completed the
acquisition of a controlling interest in Jones Intercable, Inc. ("Jones
Intercable"), the Partnership's general partner until March 2, 2000. In December
1999, Comcast and Jones Intercable entered into a definitive merger agreement
pursuant to which Comcast agreed to acquire all of the outstanding shares of
Jones Intercable not yet owned by Comcast. On March 2, 2000, Jones Intercable
was merged with and into Comcast JOIN Holdings, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary
of Comcast. Comcast JOIN Holdings, Inc. continues as the surviving corporation
of the merger. As a result of this transaction, Jones Intercable no longer
exists and Comcast JOIN Holdings, Inc. is now the general partner of the
Partnership. References in these Notes to "the General Partner" refer to Comcast
JOIN Holdings, Inc. The General Partner shares corporate offices with Comcast at
1500 Market Street, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19102-2148.

(2)     On July 30, 1999, the Venture sold the Myrtle Creek System to an
unaffiliated party for a sales price of $9,614,208. From the sale proceeds, the
Venture repaid the outstanding balance on its credit facility of $2,400,000,
paid a $240,355 brokerage fee to The Intercable Group, Ltd., a subsidiary of
Jones Intercable, representing 2.5 percent of the sales price, for acting as a
broker in the transaction, settled working capital adjustments, and deposited
$500,000 into an interest-bearing indemnity escrow account. The remaining sale
proceeds of $6,300,000 were distributed 60 percent to the Partnership and 40
percent to Fund 1-B. From the Partnership's $3,800,000 portion of this amount,
the Partnership retained $1,100,000 to cover its administrative expenses and the
balance was distributed in January 2000 to the Partnership's limited partners of
record as of the July 30, 1999 closing date of the sale of the Myrtle Creek
System. The $2,700,000 distributed to the Partnership's limited partners from
the sale of the Myrtle Creek System resulted in a distribution to limited
partners of $32 for each $500 limited partnership interest, or $64 for each
$1,000 invested in the Partnership.

        For a period of one year following the closing date, $500,000 of the
sale proceeds will remain in escrow as security for the Venture's agreement to
indemnify the buyer under the asset purchase agreement. The Venture's primary
exposure, if any, will relate to the representations and warranties made about
the Myrtle Creek System in the asset purchase agreement. Any amounts remaining
from this indemnity escrow account and not claimed by the buyer at the end of
the one-year escrow period plus interest earned on the escrowed funds will be
returned to the Venture.

                                       5

        Although the sale of the Myrtle Creek System represented the sale of the
only remaining operating asset of the Venture, and the Partnership's interest in
the Venture represents its only asset, the Venture and the Partnership will not
be dissolved until all proceeds from escrow have been distributed.

(3)     The Venture reimburses the Partnership's general partner for certain
administrative expenses. These expenses represent the salaries and related
benefits paid for corporate personnel. Such personnel provide administrative,
accounting, tax, legal and investor relations services to the Venture and its
constituent partnerships. Such services, and their related costs, are necessary
to the administration of the Venture and its constituent partnerships until they
are dissolved. Such costs were charged to operating costs during the periods
that the Venture operated its cable television systems. Subsequent to the sale
of the Venture's final cable television system, such costs were charged to other
expense. Reimbursements made by the Venture to Jones Intercable for overhead and
administrative expenses during the three month periods ended March 31, 2000 and
1999 were $29,076 and $43,424, respectively.

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

FINANCIAL CONDITION
- -------------------

        The Partnership owns a 60 percent interest in the Venture and Fund 1-B
owns a 40 percent interest in the Venture. The accompanying financial statements
include 100 percent of the accounts of the Partnership and those of the Venture
reduced by Fund 1-B's 40 percent minority interest in the Venture.

        On July 30, 1999, the Venture sold the Myrtle Creek System to an
unaffiliated party for a sales price of $9,614,208. From the sale proceeds, the
Venture repaid all of its indebtedness, paid a brokerage fee, settled working
capital adjustments and deposited $500,000 into an interest-bearing indemnity
escrow account. The remaining sale proceeds of $6,300,000 were distributed 60
percent to the Partnership and 40 percent to Fund 1-B. From the Partnership's
$3,800,000 portion of this amount, the Partnership retained $1,100,000 to cover
its administrative expenses and the balance was distributed in January 2000 to
the Partnership's limited partners of record as of the July 30, 1999 closing
date of the sale of the Myrtle Creek System. The $2,700,000 distributed to the
Partnership's limited partners from the sale of the Myrtle Creek System resulted
in a distribution to limited partners of $32 for each $500 limited partnership
interest, or $64 for each $1,000 invested in the Partnership.

        For a period of one year following the closing date, $500,000 of the
sale proceeds will remain in escrow as security for the Venture's agreement to
indemnify the buyer under the asset purchase agreement. The Venture's primary
exposure, if any, will relate to the representations and warranties made about
the Myrtle Creek System in the asset purchase agreement. Any amounts remaining
from this indemnity escrow account and not claimed by the buyer at the end of
the one-year escrow period plus interest earned on the escrowed funds will be
returned to the Venture.

        Although the sale of the Myrtle Creek System represented the sale of the
only remaining operating asset of the Venture, and the Partnership's interest in
the Venture represents its only asset, the Venture and the Partnership will not
be dissolved until all proceeds from escrow have been distributed.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ---------------------

        Neither the Partnership nor the Venture currently own any cable
television systems; therefore, a discussion of results of operations would not
be meaningful. Other expense of $74,800 incurred in the first quarter of 2000
related to various costs associated with the administration of the Venture and
its constituent partnerships.
