Zero Air Pollution Will Distribute Urban Cars for OBVIO! of Rio de Janeiro

SACRAMENTO, Calif.--Sept. 27, 2005--Edaddywarbucks has announced that its client, ZAP (PCX:ZP) has signed an agreement for North American distribution of a new fuel-efficient urban car from Brazil with OBVIO! Automotoveiculos S.P.E. Ltda., of Rio de Janeiro.

Santa Rosa, California-based ZAP and OBVIO! intend to deliver urban cars with a sophisticated design that achieve high levels of performance, passenger safety, and fuel efficiency. The two models -- an economy and a performance version -- would include a number of advances in design, features and options.

OBVIO! plans to manufacture the two models for export to the United States. The vehicles will carry the ZAP (Zero Air Pollution) brand name. ZAP will work closely with OBVIO! to ensure these advanced technology vehicles are fully compliant with United States regulatory requirements and will serve as the exclusive representative and distributor for OBVIO! vehicles throughout North America.

Prototypes of the ZAP/OBVIO! vehicles will be available by December 2005, with production models scheduled for delivery in 2007. ZAP will order 50,000 vehicles from OBVIO! during the three year period following initial delivery.

"Given the level of interest ZAP continues to garner, thanks in large part to America's receptive attitude toward environmentally conscious products, coupled with rising gasoline prices, demand should be high for these vehicles," stated Edaddywarbucks president Norm Alvis. According to the Wall Street Journal, the potential market for small, fuel-efficient cars could be as high as one million vehicles per year.

OBVIO! spent several months of research before selecting ZAP as its U.S. partner.

"Over two million cars a year are manufactured in Brazil," said ZAP Chairman Gary Starr. "We are pleased that OBVIO! has chosen ZAP to be the first U.S. distributor of cars designed and made in Rio de Janeiro."

ZAP's business plan is to develop a distribution network that caters to buyers of fuel-efficient and advanced technology automobiles. In addition, ZAP is working to create an auto dealer package that will market automobiles from companies like OBVIO!.

ZAP recently secured a $425 million credit facility and their years of experience in delivering alternative vehicles to the marketplace has shown that ZAP is capable of selling and servicing the dealer and customer that is motivated to purchase advanced transportation vehicles.
