PROXY STATEMENT
---------------------
ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS--OCTOBER 29, 1996
The enclosed form of Proxy and the Proxy Statement have been mailed to
stockholders on or about September 30, 1996, in connection with the solicitation
by the Board of Directors of National Capital Management Corporation ("NCMC" or
the "Company") of proxies for use at its Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be
held on October 29, 1996, or at any adjournments thereof (the "Annual Meeting").
A copy of the Company's 1995 Annual Report to Stockholders, including
financial statements (the "Annual Report") and Report on Form 8-K dated October
3, 1996, is being mailed herewith to each stockholder entitled to vote at the
Annual Meeting.
As of September 1, 1996, the Company had outstanding 1,650,524 shares of
common stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Common Stock"). Holders of shares
of Common Stock of record at the close of business on September 20, 1996, are
entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. Holders of shares of Common Stock are
entitled to one vote per share on each matter to be voted on at the Annual
Meeting. A majority of the outstanding shares will constitute a quorum at the
meeting. The election of directors requires a plurality of the votes cast and
votes may be cast in favor of, or withheld from, each nominee. Votes that are
withheld will be considered for purposes of determining a quorum, but will be
excluded entirely from the vote and will have no effect. Abstentions and broker
non-votes are counted for purposes of determining the presence or absence of a
quorum for the transaction of business. Abstentions are counted in tabulations
of the votes cast on proposals presented to stockholders (and thus will have the
effect of the votes cast against the proposal), whereas broker non-votes are not
counted for purposes of determining whether a proposal has been approved.
It is the intention of the persons named as proxies to vote shares of Common
Stock represented by duly executed proxies for the election of the nominees for
directors selected by the Board of Directors unless authority to so vote has
been withheld or a contrary specification made. If any other business is
properly brought before the Annual Meeting, the Proxy will be voted in
accordance with the discretion of the persons named as proxies. Any such proxy
may be revoked by the stockholder at any time prior to the voting of the proxy
by a written revocation received by the Secretary of the Company, by properly
executing and delivering a later-dated proxy, or by attending the Annual Meeting
and voting in person.
<PAGE>
PROPOSAL I
ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
Four directors are to be elected to hold office until the next Annual
Meeting or until their successors shall have been elected and qualified. The
By-laws of the Company provide that the Board of Directors shall consist of not
less than one nor more than nine directors and that the number of directors at
any time shall be the number of directors fixed by resolution of the Board of
Directors. The Board of Directors has fixed the number of directors at four.
Each of the nominees is to be elected by the holders of Common Stock. Each of
the nominees has agreed to serve as a director, if elected. If, at the time of
the Annual Meeting, a nominee is unwilling or unable to serve (which is not
currently anticipated), the Board may fix the number of directors at less than
four, or the persons named as proxies may nominate and may vote for other
persons in their discretion.
Set forth below is a list of the nominees for the Board of Directors of the
Company. All of the nominees named below are currently directors of the Company.

Effective April 1, 1995, Messrs. Pinto and Shaw entered into agreements with
the Company to serve as Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer,
respectively, through March 31, 1997, with options to extend these agreements
for one year if certain conditions are met. Messrs. Pinto and Shaw are each
compensated at the base annual rate of $125,000 plus (i) mandatory incentive
bonuses which are based on achieving certain Company operating objectives, and
(ii) discretionary bonuses which may be granted at the option of the Board of
Directors. If these agreements are terminated by the Company other than for
cause, disability or death, Messrs. Pinto and Shaw shall be entitled to receive
their base compensation through the existing term.
Pursuant to an agreement between the Company and NCM Management, Ltd., Mr.
Jaffe was entitled to receive $8,333 per month plus health benefits through July
31, 1996. See "Certain Relationships and Related Transactions." Effective August
1, 1996, Mr. Jaffe entered into a consulting arrangement with the Company and is
entitled to receive $5,000 per month through December 1996 and $4,000 per month
through July 1997.
The By-laws of the Company provide for indemnification of its officers and
directors to the fullest extent permitted by law.
During 1995, members of the Board of Directors who are not employees,
officers or consultants of the Company, received $2,000 per quarter as
compensation and $250 for each meeting attended. Directors are entitled to be
reimbursed for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with
meetings of the Board.
CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
The Company and NCM Management, Ltd. ("NCM") have agreed that NCM will
provide management services through December 1996 and provide personnel,
equipment and facilities for the day-to-day management and operations of the
Company, including supervision of its remaining real estate properties. As
compensation for its services, NCM is receiving a monthly payment of $8,333
through July 31, 1996, plus management fees from three of the Company's
properties, consisting of 4 percent of revenues from Colony Ridge Apartments,
and 6 percent of revenues from each of Redbird Trails Apartments and North Oak
Apartments through June 30, 1996 and 4 percent thereafter. In addition, Mr.
Jaffe was provided health insurance benefits until July 31, 1996. Mr. Jaffe, a
director and officer of the Company, is NCM's Chairman of the Board; he also
owns approximately 33 percent of the outstanding capital stock of NCM and may be
deemed to have a material interest in all payments to NCM. During 1995, NCM
received an aggregate of $307,322 for management services rendered to the
Company, included in which amount was Mr. Jaffe's compensation.
In 1995, Resource Holdings, Ltd. ("Resource") provided office space and
related services at its principal office in New York City for John C. Shaw and
James J. Pinto, as well as for officers and directors of NCMC while in New York.
The Company reimbursed $75,492 to Resource for providing such office space and
related services in 1995. Mr. Shaw, a director and officer of the Company, is a
managing director and significant shareholder of Resource, and therefore may be
deemed to have a material interest in payments to Resource.
