G&K Announces Smart Cars Ready for Delivery

SANTA ANA, CA - Feb. 26, 2006: G & K Auto Conversion, Inc., announced that it is completing the conversion of several hundred Smart Cars at its facility in Santa Ana, California to be purchased and distributed by ZAP. In addition, G & K will be delivering eighty-five Smart Cars owned by ZAP within the week.

G & K is in agreement with ZAP to modify the Smart Cars for US standards and ZAP expects to deliver cars to ZAP licensed dealers shortly.

News reports from Florida and Colorado have announced two separate business ventures claiming to be importing Smart Cars. G & K owner, George Gemayel, states that G & K is the only entity approved to "import and modify" Smart Cars for the US market. G & K does not have a distribution agreement with the Florida or Colorado businesses.

G & K has obtained all necessary EPA and DOT certifications for model year 2005 and 2006 Smart Cars to meet US forty-five State standards. Certification for the remaining five States, California, Maine, Massachusetts, New York and Vermont is underway.
