ZAP PROFILE

Zero Air Pollution (ZAP) was founded as a California Corporation on September 23, 1994, in a time where concern for the environment and use of petrol as an energy source was nominal. From its unassuming beginning as an electric bicycle kit manufacturer in the hamlet of Sebastopol California, ZAP has grown into one of the leading global distributors of alternative fuel technology vehicles. ZAP has distributed over 100,000 advanced, fuel-efficient vehicles (most of which are electric) to over 75 countries in an effort to supply consumers worldwide with products that are socially responsible and environmentally sustainable. ZAP is determined to become the leading global distribution source for advanced energy management technology and fuel efficient vehicles; with an emphasis on electric power systems.

ZAP markets many forms of transportation, including alternative energy and fuel efficient automobiles, motorcycles, bicycles, scooters, personal watercraft, hovercraft, neighborhood electric vehicles, commercial vehicles and more. Additionally, the Company produces an electric scooter, known as the ZAPPY, using parts manufactured by various contractors. The wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company are Voltage Vehicles (Voltage Vehicles), RAP Group, Inc. (RAP Group), ZAP Rental Outlet (ZAP Rentals), ZAP Stores, Inc. (ZAP Stores), ZAP Manufacturing, Inc. (ZAP Manufacturing) and ZAP World Outlet, Inc (ZAP World). RAP Group was engaged in the sale and liquidation of conventional automobiles; Voltage Vehicles is engaged in the distribution and sale of advanced technology and conventional automobiles; ZAP Stores is engaged in consumer sales of ZAP products and ZAP Manufacturing is engaged in the distribution of ZAP products.

ZAP's strategy is to serve the growing and underrepresented consumer that seeks fuel efficient vehicles. With the recent increases in the cost of oil and increasing concern about the environment and the effects of global warming, we believe there is a large and untapped demand in the areas of transportation and consumer products. ZAP believes a similar opportunity is present today, enhanced by heightened environmental awareness, climate changes and economic pressures. ZAP has assembled a complete line of products to meet the growing demands of the environmentally conscious consumer focused on two primary businesses: ZAP Electric Vehicles and ZAP Recharge-It-All. We also conduct certain portions of our business through the following wholly-owned subsidiaries: Voltage Vehicles, ZAPWorld Stores, Inc., ZAP Manufacturing, Inc. and ZAP Rental Outlet.

With the recent increases in the cost of oil, increasing concern about the environment and the effects of global warming, more than ever, now is the time for 100% electric zero emission vehicles to take on a dramatically bigger role in global fleets. EVs reduce pollutants by more than 90 percent when compared to the cleanest conventional gasoline-powered vehicles (even when factoring in the emissions from power plants generating the electricity to the charge the vehicle).

Portable Energy - Recharge-It -All Batteries

The Company through the Recharge-It-All line sells battery packs to power or charge a range of mobile electronics such as cellular phones, digital cameras and laptops, providing significantly more charge time than available technologies. The Portable Energy devices fall under two product lines. It includes the universal chargers and iPOD models. The universal chargers are rechargeable battery packs that extend the use of small and medium-sized electronic devices up to two to five times their normal battery life. The made-for iPOD models are a series of portable energy devices designed to work with all the iPOD products, including the iPOD, iPOD nano, iPOD shuffle and the iPOD with video.


Company Events

Some of the significant events for the Company that occurred during the year of 2008 and through the date of this report are as follows:

1.ZAP introduced a new four wheeled Electric Van and a Truck in December 2008. ZAP's new Shuttle was designed for passenger transport or cargo. The seats are removable so it can convert into a cargo vehicle with 108 cubic feet and a 900 lb. total carrying capacity. ZAP's new XL Truck was designed with a roomy cab for two and a sturdy bed platform capable of transporting 800 lbs. for on-road use and up to 1,600 lbs. capacity for private roads and facilities.

2. In January of 2009, ZAP introduced the ZAP Alias which is a stylish, 100% electric, 2-seater capable of freeway speeds. ZAP indicated the mass-production version of the Alias is targeted to be priced under $35,000. In the fourth quarter of 2009, ZAP plans to produce a limited number of hand-crafted, Signature Series Alias roadsters.

3. ZAP is currently engaged in ongoing talks with Franklin-based ZAP Motor Manufacturing Kentucky led by CEO Gary Dodd and his new management team to build and assemble several of ZAP's best-selling electric vehicles.

4. On July 30, 2008 ZAP received a $10 million financing arrangement from the Al Yousuf Group, a Dubai-based conglomerate to provide future working capital to ZAP and help meet the growing demand for ZAP electric vehicles. The Al-Yousuf group is a major investor of ours and the President of Al-Yousuf LLC, Mr. Eqbal Al-Yousuf is our Chairman of the Board. The financing arrangement allows for advances by ZAP over the next few years.
