CAPITAL CASH MANAGEMENT TRUST
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note A- Capital Cash Management Trust (the "Trust") is a Massachusetts business
trust established on August 20, 1976 as a successor to the money-market fund,
the STCM Corporation, which commenced operations on July 8, 1974. It is
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act") as an
open-end investment company. The Fund ceased operations on December 2, 2003
inasmuch as all shares outstanding, except for 1,001 shares owned by Aquila
Management Corporation (which have been subsequently transferred to its
wholly-owned subsidiary, Aquila Investment Management LLC) were redeemed by
shareholders. Although the Fund is not conducting a public offering of its
shares, it will continue to exist as a Massachusetts Business Trust and maintain
its registration as an investment company. Administrative expenses incurred in
connection herewith, have now been assumed by Aquila Investment Management LLC.
On December 4, 2003, the Board of Trustees approved a change in the Fund's
fiscal year end from June 30th to December 31st.
Note B - Since inception, the Fund has qualified as a regulated investment
company by complying with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable
to certain investment companies. The Fund made distributions of income and
securities gains sufficient to relieve it from all, or substantially all,
Federal income and excise taxes.
Note C- Aquila Investment Management LLC has agreed to pay all operating
expenses of the Fund.
Note D- Change in Principal Accountants
KPMG LLP was previously the principal accountants for the Capital Cash
Management Trust (the "Trust"). On July 27, 2005 KPMG LLP resigned as the
principal accountants of the Trust and Tait, Weller and Baker was engaged as the
principal accountants to audit the Trust's financial statements for the fiscal
year of 2005. The decision was made by the Audit Committee of the Board of
Trustees.
The audit reports of KPMG LLP on the Trust's financial statements as of and for
the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003 did not contain an adverse opinion or
disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty,
audit scope, or accounting principles.
In connection with the audits of the two fiscal years ended December 31, 2004
and 2003 and the subsequent interim period through July 27, 2005, there were no
reportable events or disagreements with KPMG LLP on any matter of accounting
principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or
procedures, which disagreements if not resolved to the satisfaction of KPMG LLP
would have caused them to make reference in connection with their opinion to the
subject matter of the disagreements.
Proxy Voting Record. As the Fund is closed, the Fund had no portfolio
securities. Therefore, there were no matters relating to a portfolio security
considered at any shareholder meeting held during the 12 months ended June 30,
2005 with respect to which the Fund was entitled to vote. Applicable regulations
require us to inform you that the foregoing proxy voting information is
available on the SEC website at http://www.sec.gov.

Analysis of Expenses (unaudited)
As a shareholder of the Trust, you may incur ongoing costs, including management
fees; and other Trust expenses. The tables below are intended to help you
understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Trust and to
compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The tables below are based on an investment of $1,000 invested on January 1,
2005 and held for the six months ended June 30, 2005.
Actual Expenses
This table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses.
You may use the information provided in this table, together with the amount you
invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. To estimate
the expenses you paid on your account, divide your ending account value by
$1,000 (for example, an $8,600 ending account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6),
then multiply the result by the number under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid
During the Period".

Analysis of Expenses (unaudited) (continued)
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The table below provides information about hypothetical account values and
hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of
return of 5.00% per year before expenses, which is not the Trust's actual
return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate
the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may
use the information provided in this table to compare the ongoing costs of
investing in the Trust and other mutual funds. To do so, compare this 5.00%
hypothetical example relating to the Trust with the 5.00% hypothetical examples
that appear in the shareholder reports of other mutual funds.
