(1) Basis of Presentation
---------------------
The accompanying unaudited financial statements do not include all
of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted
accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the
opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal
recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation
have been included. The results of operations for interim periods
are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected
for a full year or any other interim period. For further
information, see the consolidated financial statements included in
the Company's Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 1996.
(2) Business Acquisitions
---------------------
On May 8, 1997, the Company completed its acquisition of The Lodge
Keeper Group, Inc. of Prospect, Ohio ("Lodge Keeper"). The purchase
price totaled approximately $6.3 million consisting primarily of
cash of $825,000, 106,320 shares of common stock of the Company, and
the assumption of approximately $4.8 million of debt. Lodge Keeper
operated 18 hotels under long-term leases, held management contracts
on five Country Hearth Inn hotels and owned one independent hotel,
among other assets. The acquisition has been accounted for using the
purchase method and Lodge Keeper's results of operations are
included in the Company's financial statements from the acquisition
date.
On September 23, 1997, the Company completed its acquisition of
Hatfield Inns, LLC ("Hatfield"); the acquisition was deemed
effective on September 1, 1997. The purchase price totaled
approximately $11 million consisting primarily of cash and payables
of $1.5 million, $3 million of preferred stock issued by the
Company, and the assumption or placement of approximately $6.5
million of debt. The preferred stock is a 10% cumulative instrument
convertible to common stock in seven years at the then current
market value of the common shares. Hatfield owned eight 40 unit
hotel properties located in Kentucky and Missouri. The Company is
converting all eight properties into Country Hearth Inns and intends
to use the plans and design rights which were also acquired to
develop and construct additional properties. The acquisition has
been accounted for using the purchase method and Hatfield's results
of operations are included in the Company's financial statements
from the deemed effective date.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS.
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION.
- -------------------------------------------------------
1996
- ----
During the third quarter of 1996, the Company acquired a 96 room hotel in
Dalton, Georgia ("Dalton Hotel") for approximately $1.5 million. The purchase
was financed by a $1,050,000 (9.15%) first mortgage loan from a local bank and a
$70,000 (10%) short term note from the seller. The remainder was paid in cash. A
$700,000 renovation was begun and completed in the first quarter of 1997.
Renovations at the Company's hotel in Atlanta, Georgia ("Atlanta Hotel") began
shortly after the completion of the Olympic Games. The $900,000 renovation was
completed prior to year end when the hotel reopened as a Country Hearth Inn. The
Company funded a substantial portion of the renovation costs through lease
agreements.
The Company's joint venture project in Mason, Ohio broke ground in September
1996 and opened in mid-May 1997. This new 93 room hotel ("Mason Hotel") is the
first of the Company's new interior-corridor prototype.
The Company received a $4.6 million loan commitment to refinance its Orlando
Country Hearth Inn. Proceeds from the refinancing allowed the Company to pay off
the remaining balance of its obligation to Trilon International, Inc., which was
to be due on December 31, 1996.
1997
- ----
The most significant event occurring in the third quarter of 1997 was the
completion of the Hatfield Inn, LLC ("Hatfield") acquisition. On September 23,
1997, the Company completed its acquisition of Hatfield; the acquisition was
deemed effective on September 1, 1997. The purchase price totaled approximately
$11 million consisting primarily of cash and payables of $1.5 million, $3
million of preferred stock issued by the Company, and the assumption or
placement of approximately $6.5 million of debt. The preferred stock is a 10%
cumulative instrument convertible to common stock in seven years at the then
current market value of the common shares. The new debt has a weighted average
interest rate of approximately 9.4%. Hatfield owned eight 40 unit hotel
properties located in Kentucky and Missouri. The Company is converting all eight
properties into Country Hearth Inns and intends to use the plans and design
rights which were also acquired to develop and construct additional properties.
Also in September 1997, the Company financed approximately $260 thousand of its
Dalton Hotel renovation costs by placing a second mortgage on the property with
the same local bank that holds the first mortgage.
The Company received approximately $100 thousand of additional capital as a
result of the exercises of stock options by a former director and a former
employee.

<PAGE>
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ---------------------
Periods ended September 30, 1997 and 1996
- -----------------------------------------
Hotel revenues amounted to $5,081,763 and $10,796,669 for the three month and
nine month periods ended September 30, 1997, respectively, as opposed to
$2,444,487 and $7,762,931 during the same periods in 1996. Hotel operating
profits for the 1997 three and nine month periods amounted to $1,477,758 and
$2,904,859, respectively, versus $639,126 and $2,169,752 in 1996. Such increases
largely reflect the completion of the acquisitions of The Lodgekeeper Group Inc.
("Lodge Keeper") in May 1997 and Hatfield in September 1997. With this growth in
hotel ownership, the Company is now more susceptible to the seasonal nature of
the lodging business. As a result, fourth quarter results are not expected to be
as strong as results year to date.
Interest income continues to decline as a result of decreases in the note
receivable portfolio and in funds available for investment. As disclosed in
previous filings with the Commission, management intends to shift financial
resources to other assets, such as the hotel acquisitions previously discussed.
Other income in the third quarter of 1996 included $275,000 for the sale by the
Company of an option to purchase its equity certificates in Days Inn Mortgage
Trust. The option was exercised in the first quarter of 1997 and the Company
received an additional $100,000.
Country Hearth Inn franchise fees included in other income in the third quarter
of 1997 amounted to $156,533 versus $191,156 in the same period in 1996. Such
amounts exclude the fees from Company owned hotels which are eliminated in
consolidation. The slight decline in 1997 is attributable to the timing of
recognition of initial fees.
The remainder of other income in the third quarter of 1997 primarily consisted
of management fees earned by Lodge Keeper on leased hotels. Except for seasonal
fluctuations, such fees are expected to increase as additional leases are
executed. In October 1997, the Company completed the first hotel financing
transaction under a previously announced financing and development agreement
with Host Funding Inc., a Dallas-based, real estate investment trust ("Host").
The Company is managing and leasing two Country Hearth Inns acquired by Host.
The Company and Host are seeking other similar transactions.
Depreciation and interest expense increases resulted from the hotel
acquisitions. Interest expense on each individual debt obligation, most of which
is fixed rate, generally decreases as the principal balances are reduced.
Approximately $3.5 million of the debt assumed or placed in connection with the
Hatfield acquisition is floating rate, presently at 9.5%. The Company expects
that hotel operations will adequately service the Company's debt obligations in
addition to providing additional cash profits.
Other operating and administrative expenses increased $304,447 from the third
quarter of 1996 to the same period in 1997. This is attributable to a $379,305
increase as a result of the Lodge Keeper acquisition offset by a $74,858
decrease in franchising and corporate overhead.
11
<PAGE>
Significant changes in general and administrative expenses are not anticipated.
Management believes the Company has adequate sources of liquidity to meet it's
operational needs for the next twelve months. Further growth of the Company,
however, may necessitate the raising of additional debt or equity financing.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES
On September 23, 1997, the Registrant issued 30,000 unregistered shares of $100
par value ten percent (10%) nonvoting cumulative Series A Preferred Stock to the
former members of Hatfield Inns, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company
("Hatfield"), as partial consideration for the merger of Hatfield with and into
BLM-RH, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("BLM") wholly-owned by the Company. The
Series A Preferred Stock has certain rights, privileges and preferences that
limit and qualify the rights of the Common Stock of the Company. Holders of the
Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to receive, prior and in preference to any
distribution to the holders of Common Stock, cumulative dividends at the rate
per annum of 10% on the $100.00 original issuance price per share ("Original
Issuance Price") of the Series A Preferred Stock from the date of issuance, to
the extent declared by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available
therefor. All accrued but unpaid dividends of the Series A Preferred Stock must
be paid in full before any cash dividend may be declared on the Common Stock.
Further, holders of the Series A Preferred Stock have certain preferential
distribution rights in the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up
of the Company. Except as required by law, the Series A Preferred Stock will not
have any voting rights. At any time after September 17, 2004, each holder of
Series A Preferred Stock may convert any or all of such Series A Preferred Stock
into shares of the Company's Common Stock at a conversion price equal to the
average trading price of the Company's Common Stock over the ten (10) trading
days immediately preceding the date of conversion. In addition, the Series A
Preferred Stock are convertible by the Company into Common Stock of the Company
at one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Original Issuance Price at any time
after September 17, 2004. See Exhibit 3(i)(c) filed herewith for further details
regarding the rights and preferences of the Series A Preferred Stock.
The Series A Preferred Stock was issued to accredited investors. The Company
relied upon the exemptions from registration contained in Section 4(2) and
Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

CERTIFICATE OF DESIGNATION,
PREFERENCES AND RIGHTS OF
SERIES A PREFERRED STOCK
OF
BUCKHEAD AMERICA CORPORATION
It is hereby certified that:
1. The name of the corporation is Buckhead America Corporation (the
"Corporation").
2. Article Fourth of the Certificate of Incorporation, as amended by
Certificate of Amendment, of the Corporation authorizes the issuance of 200,000
shares of Preferred Stock, par value $100, and expressly vests in the Board of
Directors of the Corporation the authority provided therein to issue shares of
Preferred Stock at any time and from time to time, in one or more series, and to
fix or alter the designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional
or other special rights and qualifications, limitations or restrictions of such
shares of Preferred Stock, including without limitation of the generality of the
foregoing, dividend rights, dividend rates, conversion rights, voting rights,
rights and terms of redemption (including sinking fund provisions), redemption
price or prices and liquidation preferences of any wholly unissued series of
preferred shares and the number of shares constituting any of such series and
the designation thereof, or any of them; and to increase or decrease the number
of shares of that series, but not below the number of shares of such series then
outstanding. In case the number of shares of any series shall be so decreased,
the shares constituting such decrease shall resume the status which they had
prior to the adoption of the resolution originally fixing the number of shares
of such series.
3. The Board of Directors of the Corporation, pursuant to the authority
expressly conferred upon them as aforesaid, adopted a resolution creating a
series of 30,000 shares of Preferred Stock designated "Series A Preferred
Stock". No shares of Series A Preferred Stock have been issued.
4. Pursuant to the authority conferred upon the Board of Directors by the
amended Certificate of Incorporation and Section 151(g) of the General
Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, the Board of Directors adopted on
September 16, 1997 the following resolutions setting forth the designations,
preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights and
qualifications, limitations or restrictions, of the shares of the Series A
Preferred Stock:
"RESOLVED, that pursuant to authority granted to and vested in the Board of
Directors of the Corporation in accordance with the provisions of its
Certificate of Incorporation, as amended by Certificate of Amendment, the Board
of Directors hereby creates a series of Preferred Stock, par value $100 per
share, of the Corporation and states its designation and number of shares and
fixes the relative rights, preferences and limitations thereof as follows:
16
<PAGE>
1. DESIGNATION. The designation shall be "Series A Preferred Stock" (the
"Series A Preferred Stock"). Each share of the Series A Preferred Stock
shall be identical in all respects with the other shares.
2. NUMBER. The number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be 30,000,
which number from time to time may be increased or decreased (but not
below the number then outstanding) by the Board of Directors. Shares of
Series A Preferred Stock purchased by the Corporation shall be cancelled
and shall revert to authorized but unissued shares of Preferred Stock
undesignated as to series.
3. NON-VOTING. The Series A Preferred Stock shall not have any voting
rights, unless otherwise required by law.
4. DIVIDENDS; RIGHTS UPON LIQUIDATION. The holders of Series A Preferred
Stock shall be entitled to receive, prior and in preference to any
distribution to the holders of Common Stock, cumulative dividends at the
rate per annum of 10% of the $100.00 original issuance price per share
("Original Issuance Price") of the Series A Preferred Stock from the date
of issuance, when and to the extent declared by the Board of Directors
out of funds legally available therefor, to holders of record at the
close of business on the last day of each calendar month of each calendar
year. All accrued but unpaid dividends of the Series A Preferred Stock
must be paid in full before any cash dividend may be declared on the
Common Stock.
In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution
or winding up of the Corporation, the assets of the Corporation available
for distribution to its shareholders shall be distributed in the
following order of priority:
(a) The holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to
receive, prior and in preference to any distribution to the holders
of Common Stock, an amount equal to the Original Issuance Price plus
an amount equal to the Original Issuance Price multiplied by 10% per
annum from the date of issuance for each share of Series A Preferred
Stock then outstanding, provided such amount shall be reduced by an
amount equal to all dividends declared and paid with respect to such
shares of Series A Preferred Stock since the date of issuance. If
the assets and funds of the Corporation available for distribution
to the holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall be insufficient to
permit the payment of the full preferential amount set forth in this
Section 4(a), than all the assets of the Corporation available for
distribution shall be distributed to the holders of Series A
Preferred Stock PRO RATA so that each share receives the same
percentage of its respective liquidation interest.
(b) After distribution of the amount set forth in Section 4(a) hereof,
the remaining assets, if any, of the Corporation available for
distribution to the shareholders shall be distributed to the holders
of shares of Common Stock to the exclusion of the holders of Series
A Preferred Stock.
5. CONVERSION.
(a) RIGHT OF HOLDER TO CONVERT. At any time after September 17, 2004,
each holder of Series A Preferred Stock may convert any or all of
such Series A Preferred Stock into fully paid and non-assessable
17
<PAGE>
shares of Common Stock. The aggregate number of shares of Common
Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be calculated as follows:
divide $100.00 ("Conversion Price") (the Original Issuance Price per
share of Series A Preferred Stock) by the "Common Stock Price" (as
hereinafter defined) and multiply that amount by the number of
shares of Series A Preferred Stock being so converted. "Common Stock
Price" is the average per share closing price (as reported by THE
WALL STREET JOURNAL) of the Corporation's Common Stock for the ten
trading days preceding the "Notice Date" (as hereinafter defined).
"Notice Date" means the date on which the Corporation received
written notice from the holder of Series A Preferred Stock
exercising such conversion, which notice shall set forth the number
of shares of Series A Preferred Stock being so converted and be
accompanied by a certificate evidencing such shares, duly executed
by such holder of record.
(b) RIGHT OF CORPORATION TO CAUSE CONVERSION. At any time after
September 17, 2004 and at the election of the Corporation upon
giving notice, all, but not less than all, of the Series A Preferred
Stock shall be converted into shares of Common Stock of the
Corporation. The aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to be
received shall be calculated in the same manner as set forth in
Section 5(a) above, except that the Conversion Price shall be
$110.00 and the Notice Date for the purpose of this Section 5(b)
shall be the date on which the Corporation deposits into the mail
written notice of such conversion. Thereafter, the shares of Series
A Preferred Stock shall be deemed to have been cancelled and no
longer issued and outstanding, and the Corporation shall promptly
issue and deliver to such holders certificates for the number of
shares of Common Stock to which such holders shall be entitled upon
receipt of the cancelled Series A Preferred Stock from such holders.
(c) NO FRACTIONAL SHARES. Notwithstanding any term or provision
containing herein to the contrary, the Corporation shall not issue
any fractional shares of Common Stock. In the event the holder would
have been entitled to fractional shares, then the Corporation shall,
in lieu thereof, issue payment in cash to such holder for the value
of such fractional shares not issued in the conversion.
6. LIMITED RIGHTS OF HOLDER TO SELL COMMON STOCK TO CORPORATION. In the
event the Corporation exercises its right in Section 5(b) above to
cause the holders of Series A Preferred Stock to convert such shares
into shares of Common Stock, then the terms and provisions of this
Section 6 shall apply. At any time during the six-month period
beginning on the ninetieth day following Notice Date under Section
5(b) above, the stockholder of record holding the shares of Series A
Preferred Stock at the time of such conversion may sell to the
Corporation at a price equal to the Common Stock Price the shares of
Common Stock of the Corporation received by such registered holder
as a result of the conversion; provided, however, that (i) the
holder exercising such right shall have provided the Corporation
with 30 days written notice (the "Notice Period") of intent to sell
such Common Stock to the Corporation, setting forth in such notice
the number of shares of Common Stock to be sold and the certificate
number evidencing such shares and (ii) if requested by Corporation,
such holder shall make a good faith effort to sell such shares of
Common Stock in the open market during the Notice Period. In the
event the holders are successful in selling any portion of such
shares of Common Stock in the open market during the Notice Period,
the Corporation shall pay such selling stockholders the difference,
if any, by which the Common Stock Price exceeds the price for which
the converted Common Stock was sold in the open market during Notice
Period. Any shares of Common Stock not so sold in the open market
will be repurchased by the Corporation pursuant to this Section 6.
