Accountant's Review Report
We have reviewed the accompanying statements of financial
position of United Capital Investment Corp. (the "Company"), as
of June 30, 1996 and 1995 and the related statements of
operations, cash flows and stockholders' equity for the years
then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of
the Company's management.
We conducted our review in accordance with standards
established by the American Institute of Certified Accountants A
review of interim financial information consists principally of
applying analytical procedures to financial data and making
inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting
matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit
conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion
regarding the financial statements taken as a whole.
Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material
modifications that should be made to the accompanying reviewed
financial statements in order for them to be in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.
Our review was made for the purpose of expressing limited
assurance that there are no material modifications that should be
made to the financial statements in order for them to be in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. The
information included in the accompanying schedule of portfolio
investments and per share data and ratios is presented only for
supplementary analysis purposes. Such information has been
subjected to the inquiry and analytical procedures applied in the
review of the basic financial statements and we are not aware of
any material modifications that should be made thereto.

UNITED CAPITAL INVESTMENT CORP.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 1996 AND 1995
NOTE 1 ORGANIZATION
United Capital Investment Corp. (The "Company") was formed on May
11, 1984, for the purpose of operating as a specialized small
business investment company (SSBIC), licensed under the Small
Business Investment Act of 1958 and regulated and financed in
part by the Small Business Administration (SBA). The Company's
business is to provide financing to persons who qualify as
disadvantaged persons under applicable SBA and SSBIC by the SBA
on February 5, 1985.
NOTE 2 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies
applied by the Company in the preparation of its financial
statements. The Company maintains its accounts and prepares its
financial statements on the accrual method of accounting in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles for
investment companies.
Valuation of Loans and Investments
As of June 30, 1996, all investments made by the Company have
been in the form of loans to closely held corporations. The
Board of Directors has valued the investment portfolio based upon
the cost of such investments, less a provision for loan losses.
However, because of the inherent uncertainty of the valuation,
the estimated values might otherwise be significantly higher or
lower than the values that would exist in a ready market for such
loans which market has not and does not exist. The provision for
loan losses of $64,033 represents a good faith determination by
the Board of Directors. Substantially, all loans are
collateralized by real estate. See schedule for analysis of loan
portfolio.
Recognition of Interest Income
It is the Company's policy to record interest on loans and debt
securities only to the extent that management and the Board of
Directors anticipate such amounts may be collected. As of June
30, 1996, the Board of Directors elected to accrue interest on
substantially all outstanding loans.
Gains or Losses on Securities
Cost of securities sold is reported on the average cost basis.
Amounts reported as realized gains and losses are measured by the
difference between the proceeds of sale and the cost basis of the
investment without regard to unrealized gain or loss reported in
prior years.
No gain is recognized on the exchange of one investment security
for another, or on the exchange of an equity or debt investment
for other tangible or intangible assets.

UNITED CAPITAL INVESTMENT CORP.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 1996 AND 1995
NOTE 5 REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK
(Continued)
The Company amended its certificate of incorporation to create a
class A preferred stock $1,000 par value which will consist of
the 1,000 outstanding preferred stock and to change the existing
3,000 authorized but unissued shares of preferred stock into a
new class B preferred stock $1,000 par value which will carry a 4
percent cumulative dividend rate and a mandatory 15 year
redemption. Subsequent to the repurchase of the 3% preferred
stock (see note 8), the Company retired the class A preferred
stock. On February 17, 1995 the Company sold 500 shares of its 15
year redeemable, 4% cumulative preferred stock to the SBA for
$500,000 and on September 20, 1991, the Company sold 400 shares
of its 15 year redeemable, 4 percent cumulative preferred stock
to the SBA for $400,000. The mandatory redemption provisions
call for the preferred stock to be repurchased by the Company at
its face value. In accordance with Regulation S-X, the Company's
financial statements present the preferred stock as Long Term
Debt.
NOTE 6 PREFERRED STOCK
As of June 30, 1996 the Company was authorized to issue 4,000
shares of cumulative preferred stock, consisting of 1,000 shares
of 3 percent cumulative preferred stock and a second class of 4
percent cumulative, 15 year redeemable preferred stock, $1,000
par value.
As of June 30, 1996, 900 shares of 4 percent preferred stock were
issued to the SBA. Each share is entitled to receive 4 percent
per annum. Dividends are not required to be paid to the SBA on
an annual or other periodic basis, so long as cumulative
dividends are paid to the SBA before any other payments are made
to shareholders. Such dividends on the preferred stock will be
deemed to be earned at the time dividends on the Company's common
stock are declared, and accordingly will reduce the amounts
available for distribution to the Company's shareholders. As of
June 30, 1996, the Company was contingently liable to the SBA on
the 4 percent redeemable preferred stock from January 1, 1996 to
June 30, 1996 in the amount of $18,000.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 8 REPURCHASE OF 3% PREFERRED STOCK
(Continued)
The Company and the SBA entered into a repurchase agreement dated
October 5, 1993. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company
repurchased all 1,000 shares of its 3% preferred stock, $1,000
par value, from the SBA for a purchase price of $362.257 per
share, or an aggregate of $362,257. The repurchase price was at
a substantial discount to the original sale price of $1,000 per
share. As a condition precedent to the repurchase, the Company
granted the SBA a liquidating interest in the restricted capital
surplus account.
The surplus account is equal to the amount of the repurchase
discount less expenses associated with the repurchase. The
initial value of the liquidating interest was equal to $637,743.
the amount of the repurchase discount on the date of repurchase,
and is being amortized over a sixty (60) month period on a
straight-line basis. Should the Company be in default under the
repurchase agreement, at any time, the liquidating interest will
become fixed at the level immediately preceding the event of
default and will not decline further until such time as the
default is cured or waived. The liquidating interest will expire
on the earlier of (I) sixty (60) months from the date of the
repurchase agreement, or (ii) if any event of default has
occurred and such default has been cured or waived, such later
date on which the liquidating interest is full amortized. Should
the Company voluntarily or involuntarily liquidate prior to the
expiration of the liquidating interest, any assets which are
available, after the payment of all debts of the Company, shall
be distributed first to the SBA until the amount of the then
remaining liquidating interest has been distributed to the SBA.
Such payment, if any, would be prior in right to any payments
made to the Company's shareholders.
NOTE 9 MANAGEMENT FEES
Effective February 9, 1993, the SBA approved the Company's
request for an increase in total compensation to $160,200
retroactive to January 1, 1993.
