ITEM 2. ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS.
National Capital Management Corporation (the "Company") sold the
stock of its wholly-owned subsidiary, National Capital Benefits Corporation,
a Delaware corporation ("NCBC "), to Resource Holdings Associates, a Delaware
limited partnership. NCBC had been engaged in the business of purchasing life
insurance policies which insure the lives of individuals with life
threatening illnesses. In 1996, certain medical developments with respect to
persons diagnosed with AIDs had a significant effect on the viatical
settlement industry in general and NCBC in particular. In December 1996, the
Company made a determination to discontinue the business of NCBC and since
such date has engaged in a wind-down of the business.
The Company and Resource Holdings Associates have entered into a
Stock Purchase Agreement whereby the Company agreed to sell all of the
outstanding capital stock of NCBC to Resource Holdings Associates. Although
the Company received nominal cash consideration through this transaction, the
Company has been relieved of its obligations to Banc One N.A. and Bank One
Capital Partners V, Ltd. in the aggregate amount of approximately $4 million.
As part of this transaction, the acquired company will remain subject to
these obligations with the lenders. In connection with this transaction, the
Company has also been relieved from certain support and guarantee agreements
entered into by the Company with these lenders relating to and for the
benefit of NCBC. Resource Holdings Associates is owned in part by John C.
Shaw, Chief Executive Officer of the Company.
ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS.
National Capital Management Corporation has announced that its board
of directors (the "Board") has declared a cash dividend in the range of $.40
to $.65 per share to shareholders of record at the close of business on
Tuesday, July 20, 1999. The Board intends to refine this cash dividend
shortly and anticipates the payments to shareholders of record to be on or
about August 12, 1999. The press release announcing this cash dividend is
filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

NATIONAL CAPITAL MANAGEMENT CORPORATION
ANNOUNCES THE SALE OF SUBSIDIARY AND A CASH DIVIDEND
NEW YORK, NEW YORK, JULY 20, 1999 - National Capital Management
Corporation (Nasdaq: NCMC) announced today the sale of its wholly-owned
subsidiary, National Capital Benefits Corporation ("NCBC"), to Resource
Holdings Associates, a Delaware limited partnership. NCBC had been engaged in
the business of purchasing life insurance policies which insure the lives of
individuals with life threatening illnesses. In 1996, certain medical
developments with respect to persons diagnosed with AIDs had a significant
effect on the viatical settlement industry in general and NCBC in particular.
In December 1996, the Company made a determination to discontinue the
business of NCBC and since such date has engaged in a wind-down of the
business.
The Company and Resource Holdings Associates have entered into a
Stock Purchase Agreement whereby the Company agreed to sell all of the
outstanding capital stock of NCBC to Resource Holdings Associates. Although
the Company received nominal cash consideration through this transaction, the
Company has been relieved of its obligations to Banc One N.A. and Bank One
Capital Partners V, Ltd. in the aggregate amount of approximately $4 million.
As part of this transaction, the acquired company will remain subject to
these obligations with the lenders. In connection with this transaction, the
Company has also been relieved from certain support and guarantee agreements
entered into by the Company with these lenders relating to and for the
benefit of NCBC. Resource Holdings Associates is owned in part by John C.
Shaw, Chief Executive Officer of the Company.
In May 1999, the Company sold its remaining partnership interests
and management fees in two real estate apartment projects in Dallas, Texas to
NCM Management, Ltd. for $335,000. Herbert Jaffe, a director of the Company,
is the President and a minority shareholder of NCM Management, Ltd.
National Capital Management Corporation also announced today its
board of directors has declared a cash dividend in the range of $.40 to $.65
per share to shareholders of record at the close of business on Tuesday,
July 20, 1999. The Board intends to refine this cash dividend shortly and
anticipates the payment to shareholders of record to be on or about August
12, 1999.

subsidiary, National Capital Benefits Corp., which purchased life insurance
policies for cash, on a discounted basis, from individuals having

life threatening illnesses. In December 1996, the Company made a
determination to discontinue this operation.
