INFORMATION TO BE INCLUDED IN THE REPORT
Section 3 - Securities and Trading Markets
Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or
Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On July 14, 2006, Zapata Corporation. (the "Registrant") notified the New York
Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") that it had inadvertently omitted to state in the
proxy statement for its 2006 Annual Meeting of Stockholders that the
Registrant's Board of Directors had determined that the simultaneous service on
the audit committees of four public companies (one of which is the Registrant's
audit committee) by director Warren Gfeller does not impair Mr. Gfeller's
ability to effectively serve on the Registrant's audit committee. The Commentary
to Section 303A.07 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual requires this statement be
included in the annual proxy statement.
The NYSE has advised the Registrant that the filing of this Current Report on
Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission will correct this
noncompliance.
