                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                 MARCH 31, 1996
                                  (UNAUDITED)


NOTE 1.  GENERAL

         In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated
         financial statements of Allied Capital Advisers, Inc.  and Subsidiary
         (the Company) contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal
         recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly  the Company's
         financial position as of March 31, 1996 and the results of operations,
         and cash flows for the periods indicated.  Certain information and
         footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements
         prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
         have been condensed or omitted.  It is suggested that these financial
         statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and
         notes thereto included in the Company's December 31, 1995 Annual
         Report.  The results of operations for the three months ended March
         31, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be
         expected for the full year.  Certain reclassifications have been made
         to the 1995 financial statements in order to conform to the 1996
         presentation.

NOTE 2.  INVESTMENT ADVISORY SERVICES

         The Company has investment advisory or management agreements to manage
         the assets of certain companies.  The Company charges a management fee
         for managing the day-to-day activities of these companies pursuant to
         those agreements.

         On May 3, 1996, the Company reached an agreement in principle with
         Allied Capital Commercial Corporation ("Allied Commercial"), a
         commercial mortgage REIT whose assets are managed by the Company, to
         revise the fee schedule under the investment management agreement
         between those entities.  As of March 31, 1996 and December 31, 1995,
         the assets of Allied Commercial represented approximately $349
         million, or 48%, and $298 million, or 44%, of the assets under
         management of the Company, and fees earned from managing Allied
         Commercial's assets represented approximately 42% and 39% of the
         Company's total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 1996 and
         for the year ended December 31, 1995, respectively.  The revised fee
         schedule applies to fees payable by Allied Commercial beginning with
         the quarter ended March 31, 1996, and only applies to loans originated
         or purchased by Allied Commercial on or after January 1, 1996.  All
         other loans in Allied Commercial's portfolio remain subject to the
         prior fee schedule of approximately 2.5% per annum on invested assets.

         The revised fee schedule reflects three tiers of management fee
         percentages payable to the Company, based upon a classification of the
         outstanding loans (i.e., "Invested Assets") held in Allied
         Commercial's investment portfolio.  This three-tiered schedule is
         intended to allow Allied Commercial to enter into new business areas.
         First, Allied Commercial will seek to originate or purchase high
         credit quality, lower interest rate loans and to be more cost
         competitive on these types of loans. Second, it will seek to originate
         or otherwise invest, on a limited basis, in loans secured by real
         estate with more difficult credit situations that may offer a higher
         return to the portfolio.

         Class A loans, which have loan-to-value, debt service coverage, and
         payment history characteristics that generally are superior to those
         of Allied Commercial's loan portfolio at December 31, 1995, will incur
         management fees, payable quarterly in arrears, at a rate of 1.25% per
         annum, subject to adjustment by the Company to a rate of 1.00% per
         annum under certain circumstances.

         Class B loans, which have credit characteristics that generally are
         comparable to those of the majority of loans held in Allied
         Commercial's loan portfolio at December 31, 1995, will incur
         management fees, payable quarterly in arrears, at a rate of 2.50% per
         annum.  Most loans fall into this category, which reflects the
         prior fee structure for Allied Commercial's portfolio of Invested
         Assets.

         Class C loans, which have credit characteristics that generally are
         inferior to those of Allied Commercial's existing loan portfolio, will
         incur management fees, payable quarterly in arrears, at a rate of
         3.50% per annum.  These loans are "out of the ordinary," and therefore
         require more sophisticated underwriting and/or closer monitoring than
         the majority of Allied Commercial's existing loans.  Class C loans
         either represent "turnaround financing" investments or have a
         non-performing or sub-performing payment history.

                  ALLIED CAPITAL ADVISERS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                 MARCH 31, 1996
                                  (UNAUDITED)

         Similar to the previous fee arrangement, the revised fee schedule
         places a quarterly cap, at a rate of 2.50% per annum, on the total
         management fees payable to the Company with respect to Allied
         Commercial's holdings of Invested Assets.

         Management fees payable to the Company with respect to Allied
         Commercial's holdings of cash, cash equivalents, and short-term U.S.
         government or agency securities and repurchase agreements
         collateralized thereby (i.e., "Cash and Interim Investments") are not
         affected by the revised fee schedule.  Rather, Cash and Interim
         Investments will continue to incur management fees, payable quarterly
         in arrears, at a rate of 0.50% per annum.

NOTE 3.  REVOLVING LINE OF CREDIT AGREEMENT

         The Company has a revolving line of credit agreement (the "Agreement")
         with a bank whereby the Company may borrow the lesser of 70% of the
         accrued advisory fee receivable or $1,000,000.  The Agreement expires
         May 31, 1996; however, management anticipates renewing this Agreement
         with similar terms prior to its expiration.

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

         LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         As of March 31, 1996, the Company had $4,169,000 in cash and cash
         equivalents as compared to $4,387,000 at December 31, 1995.  The
         Company does not have any short or long-term debt obligations as of
         March 31, 1996.

         The Company's primary source of funds is its advisory and management
         agreements with the companies it manages.  The Company believes that
         cash flow generated from operations will be sufficient to fulfill its
         working capital requirements.  The Company does have a revolving line
         of credit with a bank whereby the Company may borrow the lesser of 70%
         of the accrued advisory fees receivable or $1,000,000.

         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         Net income for the three months ended March 31, 1996 was $732,000.
         This is an increase of $209,000, or 40% over the same period in 1995.
         The substantial growth in net income is a result of increases in
         revenue arising from increasing invested assets under management
         combined with moderate growth in operating expenses.

         The Company's revenue for the three months ended March 31, 1996 was
         $4,173,000, and was $3,580,000 for the same period in 1995, for an
         increase of 17%.  Assets under management increased by approximately
         $50 million during the first quarter 1996 with a total increase of
         approximately $160 million since the end of the first quarter of 1995.
         Total assets under management at March 31, 1996 were approximately
         $720 million.  The significant growth in assets during the first
         quarter of 1996 was largely due to the purchase and originations of
         commercial real estate loans for Allied Commercial and Business
         Mortgage Investors, Inc.  Allied Commercial began to offer two new
         products in the first quarter of 1996.  One product is a stronger
         credit quality loan that offers a more competitive interest rate, and
         Allied Commercial was able to purchase and originate loans aggregating
         $53 million of these loans in the first quarter alone.  As discussed
         in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has revised its fee
         schedule with Allied Commercial for these higher-credit quality loans,
         and the Company will charge a fee ranging from approximately 1% to
         1.25% per annum on these loans.  Originations and purchases in the
         other funds under the Company's management in the first quarter of
         1996 were largely offset by repayments and changes in valuation, and
         as a result, did not contribute to an increase in advisory fee
         revenue.  Cash and temporary investments in the aggregate for the
         funds under the Company's management increased by approximately $13
         million largely due to the successful completion of a rights offering
         to the shareholders of Allied Capital Corporation that generated
         approximately $8.2 million in new equity for that fund.

         Income before income taxes increased $354,000 to $1,244,000 for the
         three months ended March 31, 1996, over the same period in 1995.
         Total expenses as a percent of total revenue has continued to decline
         throughout 1995 and 1996; since, expenses were 70% and 75% of total
         revenue for the quarters ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.
         Operating expenses increased by 9% in the first quarter of 1996 as
         compared to the first quarter of 1995.  This increase  was largely a
         result of salary increases over the past year.

         Income before income taxes includes the operations of the office
         building purchased in September of 1994.  During the three months
         ending March 31, 1996, the building generated rental income of
         $222,000 and $203,000 for the same period in 1995.  For the same
         periods, the building's operating expenses were $110,000 and $104,000,
         respectively.

         (b)     Reports on Form 8-K

                 The Company filed a report on Form 8-K on May 6, 1996 to
                 disclose a revision to its investment management fee
                 schedule for Allied Capital Commercial Corporation (Allied
                 Commercial).  The revised fee schedule allows for fees
                 as low as 1.0% per annum on high quality loans to
                 approximately 3.5% per annum for those that require more
                 sophisticated underwriting, closer monitoring or carry loan
                 characteristics that are generally inferior to loans
                 currently in the portfolio.  However, there is a quarterly cap
                 at a rate of approximately 2.5% per annum on the total
                 management fees payable to the Company.  The revised fee
                 schedule is effective March 31, 1996 and applies to
                 loans originated or purchased on or after January 1, 1996.
                 All other loans in Allied Commercial's Portfolio remain
                 subject to the existing fee schedule.
