Donner Corp. International Issues Speculative Buy Recommendation On ZAPWORLD.COM

    SANTA ANA, Calif., Feb. 23 -- The following is being issued
by Donner Corporation International, a member of the National Association of
Securities Dealers, CRD number 37702.

    Donner Corp. International, an Investment Banking firm headquartered in
Santa Ana, Calif., today issued a Speculative Buy Recommendation and initiated
coverage on ZAPWORLD.COM (OTC Bulletin Board: ZAPP), Sebastopol, California.
ZAPWORLD.COM was created to provide electric vehicles for ordinary people to
use every day in every part of the world and more than 35,000 people in over
60 countries are now using ZAP electric vehicles as their preferred mode of
transportation.
    "ZAP's line of electric vehicles capitalizes on the global focus to create
a clean environment," Donner said.  "Electric vehicles produce less than one
percent of the pollution compared to some of the most efficient vehicles now
available."
    The Donner Report said ZAPWORLD.COM designs, manufactures and markets
electric bicycles, scooters, and motorcycles and has begun selling a small
electric car called the Neighborhood Electric Vehicle or NEV.  Donner
emphasized that ZAPWORLD.COM has built a positive partnership with more than
200 law enforcement agencies around the country by showing how effective the
Company's electric bikes can be in fighting crime.
    "ZAPWORLD.COM recently experienced a 44 percent increase in revenues in
the third quarter of 1999 of $1.8 million and sales are up 74 percent compared
to 1998," Donner said.
    "We believe ZAPWORLD.COM's stock is undervalued considering the growing
global demand for fossil fuel alternatives, government legislation requiring
such alternatives, the strong line of innovative electric vehicles offered by
the Company, an experienced and dedicated management team and a willingness to
remain on the cutting edge of technology," Donner concluded.
