NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 1999
(unaudited)
1. GENERAL
The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements include all adjustments
(consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of
FCM Fiduciary Capital Management Company ("FCM"), the Managing General Partner
of Fiduciary Capital Partners, L.P. (the "Fund"), necessary to fairly present
the financial position of the Fund as of March 31, 1999 and the results of its
operations, changes in net assets and its cash flows for the period then ended.
These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Significant
Accounting Policies and other Notes to Financial Statements included in the
Fund's annual audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 1998.
2. INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEES
As compensation for its services as investment adviser, FCM receives a
subordinated monthly fee at the annual rate of 1% of the Fund's available
capital, as defined in the Partnership Agreement. Investment advisory fees of
$24,275 were paid by the Fund for the three months ended March 31, 1999.
3. FUND ADMINISTRATION FEES
As compensation for its services as fund administrator, FCM receives a monthly
fee at the annual rate of 0.45% of net proceeds available for investment, as
defined in the Partnership Agreement. Fund administration fees of $35,843 were
paid by the Fund for the three months ended March 31, 1999. FCM is also
reimbursed, subject to various limitations, for administrative expenses incurred
in providing accounting and investor services to the Fund. The Fund reimbursed

1999.
4. INDEPENDENT GENERAL PARTNER FEES AND EXPENSES
As compensation for services rendered to the Fund, each of the Independent

L.P., an affiliated fund, (collectively, the "Funds") an annual fee of $30,000,
payable monthly in arrears, together with all out-of-pocket expenses. Each
Fund's allocation of these fees and expenses is based on the relative number of
outstanding Units. Fees and expenses paid by the Fund for the three months ended
March 31, 1999 totaled $24,943.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Fund's unaudited
Financial Statements and the Notes thereto. This report contains, in addition to
historical information, forward-looking statements that include risks and other
uncertainties. The Fund's actual results may differ materially from those
anticipated in these forward-looking statements. While the Fund can not always
predict what factors would cause actual results to differ materially from those
indicated by the forward-looking statements, factors that might cause such a
difference include general economic and business conditions, competition and
other factors discussed elsewhere in this report. Readers are urged to consider
statements that include the terms "believes", "expects", "plans", "anticipates",
"intends" or the like to be uncertain and forward-looking. The Fund undertakes
no obligation to release publicly any revisions to these forward-looking
statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to
reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As of March 31, 1999, the Fund held portfolio investments in three Managed
Companies and one Non-Managed Company, with an aggregate original cost of
approximately $10.9 million. The value of these portfolio investments, which
were made from net offering proceeds and the reinvestment of proceeds from the
sale of other portfolio investments, represents approximately 82.7% of the
Fund's net assets. When acquired, these portfolio investments generally
consisted of high-yield subordinated debt, linked with an equity participation
or a comparable participation feature in middle market companies. These
securities were typically issued in private placement transactions and were
subject to certain restrictions on transfer or sale, thereby limiting their
liquidity. A number of the portfolio companies have prepaid their subordinated
debt that the Fund held. In addition, three of the portfolio companies have
successfully completed initial public offerings ("IPOs") of their stock. The
Fund has sold the stock it held in these three companies, except for a portion
of its KEMET Corporation ("KEMET") stock.
As of March 31, 1999, the Fund's remaining assets were invested in short-term
commercial paper. These funds are available to fund the annual repurchase offer,
to fund follow-on investments in existing portfolio companies, to pay Fund
expenses and for distribution to the partners.
The Fund's investment period ended on December 31, 1995. Although the Fund has
been permitted to make additional investments in existing portfolio companies
since 1995, the Fund is no longer permitted to acquire investments in new
portfolio companies. Consequently, the Fund has been in a liquidation mode.
Since the middle of 1997, the Fund has liquidated a significant percentage of
its investments and has distributed approximately $5.33 per Unit to the Limited
Partners, with the cash coming primarily from the liquidation of these
investments. The Fund presently has only four remaining investments in portfolio
companies, which are expected to generate only limited amounts of interest
income for the Fund during 1999 and future years.
Pursuant to the terms of the Fund's periodic unit repurchase policy, the Fund
has annually offered to purchase from its Limited Partners, up to 7.5% of its
outstanding Units for an amount equal to the current net asset value per Unit,
net of a fee (not to exceed 2%) to be retained by the Fund to offset expenses
incurred in connection with the repurchase offer. If the number of tendered
Units in any year exceeds 7.5% of the outstanding Units, the Fund's General
Partners may vote to repurchase up to an additional 2% of the outstanding Units.
12
<PAGE> 13
As a result of the liquidation of a major portion of the Fund's investments, the
Fund is not expected to have sufficient liquidity to continue to (i) fund
quarterly cash distributions, (ii) fund the annual repurchase offer, and (iii)
pay its operating expenses. Accordingly, the General Partners are presently
considering a number of alternative actions through which the Fund could be
liquidated during 1999 or 2000. Once a plan of liquidation is adopted, the
General Partners will follow the requisite regulatory procedures required to
liquidate the Fund. These procedures are expected to include requesting Limited
Partner approval of the liquidation plan through a proxy solicitation, which
should commence in July.
During February 1999, the Fund agreed to purchase $849,750 of LMC's Senior
Subordinated Revolving Notes due October 1, 1999. $453,200 of this investment
was funded during February and March 1999.
Accrued interest receivable decreased $35,758 from $103,233 at December 31, 1998
to $67,475 at March 31, 1999. This decrease resulted primarily from the fact
that the quarterly interest payment that was due on the LMC Corporation ("LMC")
notes on October 1, 1998 was not received by the Fund until January 1999. The
impact of the past due status of this LMC interest payment at December 31, 1998
was partially offset by interest income earned during the three months ended
March 31, 1999 on the LMC follow-on investments that were acquired during 1998
and 1999.
Other assets decreased $16,608 from $31,859 at December 31, 1998 to $15,251 at
March 31, 1999. This decrease resulted from decreases in both prepaid insurance
and deposits.
During the three months ended March 31, 1999, the Fund paid a cash distribution
pertaining to the fourth quarter of 1998, in the amount of $336,271, or $0.30
per Unit. The distribution for the first quarter of 1999 will be paid on May 14,
1999 at a rate of $0.30 per Unit for all Limited Partners. The Fund currently
expects to make a $0.30 per Unit distribution for the second quarter on or about
August 13, 1999. The Fund's ability to continue to pay quarterly distributions
after the second quarter of 1999 is uncertain at this time. The distribution
question will be addressed on a quarterly basis, and will involve the
consideration of a number of issues, including the status of the proposed proxy
vote. A significant portion of the 1999 distributions are expected to constitute
a return of capital.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Investment Income and Expenses
The Fund's net investment loss was $(38,184) for the three months ended March
31, 1999 as compared to net investment income of $29,191 for the corresponding
period of the prior year. Net investment income (loss) per limited partnership
unit decreased from $.02 to $(.03) and the ratio of net investment income (loss)
to average net assets decreased from 0.79% to (1.50)% for the three months ended
March 31, 1999 as compared to the corresponding period of the prior year.
Net investment income (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 1999 decreased
primarily as a result of a decrease in investment income as compared to the
corresponding period of the prior year. The impact of the decrease in investment
income was partially offset by a decrease in total expenses.
13
<PAGE> 14
Investment income decreased $146,249, or 59.5%, for the three months ended March
31, 1999, as compared to the corresponding period of the prior year. This
decrease resulted primarily from the decision to stop accruing interest on the
Fund's RBM Precision Metal Products, Inc. ("RBM") subordinated debt investment
effective during August 1998 and a decrease in the amount of the Fund's
temporary investments. The amount of the Fund's temporary investments decreased
because of (i) the significant cash distributions made by the Fund during 1998,
(ii) purchases of additional LMC follow-on investments, and (iii) the Fund's
repurchase of 7.65% of its Units during the fourth quarter of 1998. The negative
effect of these items was partially offset by an increase in interest income
earned on the LMC follow-on investments that were acquired during 1998 and 1999.
Total expenses decreased $78,874, or 36.4%, for the three months ended March 31,
1999, as compared to the corresponding period of the prior year. This decrease
resulted primarily from decreases in professional fees and investment advisory
fees. These decreases were partially offset by smaller increases in Independent
General Partner fees and expenses and other expenses.
Professional fees decreased during the three months ended March 31, 1999 as
compared to the corresponding period of the prior year, primarily because of
fees incurred during the prior year in connection with LMC related litigation.
The investment advisory fees decreased during the three months ended March 31,
1999, as compared to the corresponding period of the prior year, primarily as a
result of (i) the repurchase of Units during the fourth quarter of 1998, (ii)
the payment of quarterly cash distributions during 1998 that exceeded the
Limited Partners' Preferred Returns (as defined in the Fund's Partnership
Agreement), and (iii) losses realized by the Fund during the second quarter of
1998 with respect to the Mobile Technology, Inc., Atlas Environmental, Inc.
("Atlas") and AR Accessories Group, Inc. portfolio investments. All three of
these items decreased the amount of the Fund's available capital (as defined in
the Partnership Agreement), which is the base with respect to which the
investment advisory fees are calculated.
Net Unrealized Gain (Loss) on Investments
FCM values the Fund's portfolio investments on a weekly basis utilizing a
variety of methods. For securities that are publicly traded and for which market
quotations are available, valuations are set by the closing sales or an average
of the closing bid and ask prices, as of the valuation date.
Fair value for securities that are not traded in any liquid public markets or
that are privately held are determined pursuant to valuation policies and
procedures that have been approved by the Independent General Partners and
subject to their supervision. There is a range of values that are reasonable for
such investments at any particular time. Each such investment is valued
initially based upon its original cost to the Fund ("cost method"). The cost
method is used until significant developments affecting the portfolio company
provide a basis for use of an appraisal valuation. Appraisal valuations are
based upon such factors as the portfolio company's earnings, cash flow and net
worth, the market prices for similar securities of comparable companies and an
assessment of the portfolio company's future financial prospects. In a case of
unsuccessful operations, the appraisal may be based upon liquidation value.
Appraisal valuations are necessarily subjective. The Fund also may use, when
available, third-party transactions in a portfolio company's securities as the
basis of valuation ("private market method"). The private market method is used
only with respect to completed transactions or firm offers made by
sophisticated, independent investors.

As of December 31, 1998, the Fund had recorded $309,704 of unrealized gain and
$2,933,508 of unrealized loss on investments. Therefore, as of December 31,
1998, the Fund had recorded a total net unrealized loss on investments of
$2,623,804.
The decrease in unrealized loss on investments during the three months ended
March 31, 1999 and the cumulative net unrealized loss on investments as of March
31, 1999 consisted of the following components:

KEMET completed an IPO of its common stock during 1992. The stock, which trades
on the NASDAQ National Market System, closed at $11.46875 (an average of the
closing bid and ask prices) on March 31, 1999. This price is up slightly from
the closing price of $11.4375 on December 31, 1998. Based on the $11.46875
closing trading price of the common stock, the 27,944 shares of common stock
that the Fund held at March 31, 1999, had a market value of $320,483.
LMC experienced significant operating problems after the Fund acquired its LMC
investment during 1994 and the Fund was involved in a restructuring of its LMC
investment during 1995. In the restructuring, the Fund's then existing LMC
subordinated debt and warrants were converted into preferred stock and the Fund
purchased $545,600 of new common stock. As a result of LMC's operational
difficulties and the fact that the Fund's investment was converted from debt
securities to equity securities, the Fund wrote its LMC investment down by
$540,800 during 1995.
LMC has a defined contribution plan (the "Plan"), which was closed during 1995.
The current and previous trustees of the Plan failed to assure that the Plan was
properly funded.
In order to rectify this problem, LMC has made demands on the current and
previous trustees of the Plan and the previous controlling shareholders that
these parties make the necessary payments to the Plan. LMC has filed suit
against the current trustee, whose wholly-owned company currently owns
approximately 9% of LMC's common stock, and expects to prevail in this
litigation, although there can be no assurance that this will be the case.
The Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") performed an audit on the Plan during 1998,
in which it reviewed certain of the years with respect to which the Plan was not
properly funded. At the conclusion of their audit, the IRS notified LMC that it
had determined the underfunding for the years reviewed to be $243,385. The IRS
also imposed a penalty of $12,362, which LMC has paid. LMC is currently in
discussions with the IRS concerning how and when the $243,385 assessment, and
the related interest, must be paid. If LMC is required to make the payments
prior to resolution of the litigation with the current trustee of the Plan, it
will have a negative impact on LMC's
15
<PAGE> 16
working capital availability. In addition, it is possible that additional
assessments could be made in the future for underfundings of the Plan with
respect to earlier years.
As a result of this matter and its potential impact on LMC, the Fund recorded an
additional $317,280 write down in the value of its LMC investment during 1997.
On a cumulative basis, as of March 31, 1999, the Fund's LMC investment has been
written down in value by $858,080. The Fund and LMC's other stockholders made
follow-on investments in LMC during 1996, 1997, 1998 and 1999 in order to
provide LMC with working capital required to fund significant continuing
operating losses, develop a new product, finance the downpayment on and move to
a new facility and to purchase capital equipment needed to modernize the
company's production operations.
RBM had a record year for fiscal 1998, with sales of approximately $30 million
and EBITDA of approximately $2.7 million. However, these sales were achieved
primarily through one contract with Digital Equipment Corporation ("DEC").
During August 1998, RBM notified the Fund that anticipated sales to DEC and
other large customers were expected to decline significantly in the upcoming
year. Of particular concern were sales to DEC, which has been acquired by Compaq
Computer Corp. As a result of the expected decline in sales, RBM began the
process of restructuring its debt, including the subordinated debt held by the
Fund. The Fund received the quarterly interest payment that was due from RBM on
August 24, 1998. The interest payment that was due during November 1998 was
deferred and subsequently converted to equity pursuant to the restructuring
described below.
During December 1998, RBM and its lenders completed a restructuring under which
a new senior lender, Norwest Business Credit, replaced Bank of America. As part
of this transaction, RBM's equity sponsor contributed additional equity to the
company and the subordinated lenders, including the Fund, agreed to accept
shares of RBM's common stock as payment for the next three quarterly interest
payments beginning with the payment that was due during November 1998. As a
consequence, the Fund's ownership of RBM, on a fully-diluted basis, increased
from 6.6% to 8.1%, assuming exercise of its warrants. The restructuring was
designed to provide RBM with a period of time in which to secure additional
customers and return to a more stable financial position under which RBM could
meet its interest obligations to its creditors, including the Fund.
As a result of these developments, the Fund stopped accruing interest on its RBM
subordinated debt effective August 24, 1998. In addition, the Fund recorded
aggregate writedowns of $753,634 relating to RBM during the year ended December
31, 1998.
During June 1998, the Fund exchanged its Atlas (which was in bankruptcy
proceedings) subordinated notes and warrants for 989,414 shares of common stock
of WasteMasters, Inc. ("WMI"), an Atlanta, Georgia based waste management
company. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, the Fund is prohibited from
selling its WMI common stock for 24 months. In addition, the Fund granted the
entity acquiring the Fund's Atlas securities a call on the Fund's WMI common
stock during the 24 month lock up period and a right of first refusal
thereafter. The call price is $11.25 per share.
The WMI common stock, which trades on the NASDAQ Small Cap Market System
("WASTE"), closed at $1.78 and $0.36 (an average of the closing bid and ask
prices) on June 3, 1998 and March 31, 1999, respectively. Based on these prices,
the Fund's WMI had trading values of $1,761,157 on the date of the exchange
(June 3, 1998) and $359,189 on March 31, 1999. However, due to a number of
factors, including the speculative nature of the WMI stock, the two year lock up
period
16
<PAGE> 17
and the relative size of the Fund's stock position versus the daily trading
volume, FCM has decided to carry the WMI stock at the same nominal value that
the Atlas securities were previously carried by the Fund. The 52-week low for
the WMI common stock is $0.12 per share.
The Fund recorded a realized loss of $2,560,453 on the exchange, which was equal
to the amount of the loss which the Fund claimed for income tax purposes from
the disposition of the Atlas securities. The $1,321,794 balance of the
unrealized loss previously recorded by the Fund with respect to the Atlas
securities continues to be carried by the Fund as an unrealized loss.
FCM continually monitors both the Fund's portfolio companies and the markets,
and continually evaluates the decision to hold or sell its traded securities.
Readiness for Year 2000
FCM has completed a review of the accounting and other information systems that
are currently being utilized by FCM and the Fund with regard to Year 2000
issues. This review involved both actual tests of parts of the information
systems that were conducted by third party consultants and representations
received from various software vendors. FCM believes that all of these systems
are Year 2000 compliant. All of the costs associated with this review were paid
by FCM.
FCM also corresponded with appropriate third parties, such as the Fund's
custodian and transfer agent, concerning whether their information systems are
Year 2000 compliant. These third parties have represented that their information
systems are either currently Yea r 2000 compliant or that they have identified
the scope of required upgrades or changes to their information systems that are
needed and that they have a plan in place to complete these upgrades on a timely
basis.
As a result of the above discussed review, Year 2000 issues are not expected to
have any material adverse effects on the Fund's results of operations or
financial condition.
