ZAPATA CORPORATION NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by Zapata Corporation ("Zapata" or the "Company"), without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The financial statements reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to fairly present such information. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Although Zapata believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading, certain information and footnote disclosures, including a description of significant accounting policies normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in Zapata's 2000 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The results of operations for the periods from January 1, 2001 to June 30, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results for any subsequent quarter or the entire fiscal year ending December 31, 2001. BUSINESS DESCRIPTION Zapata is a holding company which since April 1998 has, through its subsidiaries, operated primarily in two industry segments: the food segment and the Internet segment. Zapata operates its food related businesses indirectly through its 61% owned subsidiary, Omega Protein Corporation ("Omega Protein" or "Omega") (formerly known as Marine Genetics Corporation and Zapata Protein, Inc.), and its 38% owned company, Viskase Corporation ("Viskase") (formerly known as Envirodyne Industries, Inc.). Zapata has operated its Internet related businesses directly and indirectly through its wholly owned subsidiary, Charged Productions, Inc. ("Charged Productions") (formerly known as Zap Internet Corporation), and its 98% owned subsidiary, Zap.Com Corporation ("Zap.Com"). Zap.Com was in the Internet industry and its stock is traded on the over-the-counter market on the NASD's OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol "ZPCM". Omega Protein is engaged in the marine protein business and its stock is traded on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") under the symbol "OME." Viskase is engaged in the food packaging business and its stock is traded in the Pink Sheets under the symbol "VCIC." In April 1998, the Company acquired the Internet based magazines Word and Charged. Subsequently, these webzines were consolidated into Charged Productions, Inc., ("Charged Productions" or "Charged"), a multi-media production company which operated www.charged.com, www.sissyfight.com and www.pixeltime.com. During December 2000, the Company made a strategic decision to cease the operations of Charged Productions. During April 2001, the Company completed its sale of Charged Productions to Charged LLC (a limited liability corporation comprised of former Charged Productions employees) whereby Charged Productions received 20% of the outstanding equity of Charged LLC in exchange for certain remaining assets of the company. On December 15, 2000, the Zap.Com Board of Directors concluded that Zap.Com's operations were not likely to become profitable in the foreseeable future and therefore, it was in the best interest of Zap.Com and its stockholders to cease all Internet operations. Since that date, Zap.Com has terminated all salaried employees, all signed agreements with web site owners who joined the ZapNetwork, and all third party contractual relationships entered into in connection with its Internet business. NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES INVENTORIES Inventory is stated at the lower-of-cost-or market. Omega Protein's fishing season runs from mid-April to the first of November in the Gulf of Mexico and from the beginning of May into December in the Atlantic. Government regulations preclude Omega from fishing during the off-season. Omega Protein's inventory cost system considers all costs associated with an annual fish catch and its processing, both variable and fixed and including both costs incurred during the off-season and during the fishing season. Omega's costing system allocates cost to inventory quantities on a per unit basis as calulated by a formula that considers total estimated inventoriable costs for a fishing season (including off-season costs) to total estimated fish catch and the relative fair market value of the individual products produced. Omega Protein adjusts the cost of sales, off-season costs and inventory balances at the end of each quarter based on revised estimates of total inventoriable costs and fish catch. Omega Protein's lower-of-cost-or market-value analyses at year-end and at interim periods compares the total estimated per unit production cost of Omega's expected production to the projected per unit market prices of the products. The impairment analyses involve estimates of, among other things, future fish catches and related costs, and expected commodity prices for the fish products. These estimates, which Omega Protein's management believes are resonable and supportable, involve estimates of future activities and events which are inherently imprecise and for which actual results may differ. During the off-seasons, in connection with the upcoming fishing seasons, Omega incurs costs (i.e. plant and vessel related labor, utilities, rent and depreciation) that are directly related to Omega's infrastructure. These costs accumulate in inventory and are applied as elements of the cost of production of Omega's products throughout the fishing season ratably based on Omega's monthly fish catch and the expected total fish catch for the season. RECLASSIFICATION During the period ended June 30, 2001, reclassifications of prior period information have been made to conform to the current year presentation. 6

NOTE 3. UNCONSOLIDATED AFFILIATES Pursuant to the asset purchase agreement between Charged Productions and Charged LLC, Charged Productions accounts for its investment in Charged LLC under the cost method as it does not exercise significant influence over the operations of Charged LLC. However, as Charged Productions is unsure of Charged LLC's ability to generate positive cash flows from its operations, the investment was written down to zero during the second quarter of 2001. In August 1995, Zapata acquired 4,189,298 shares of Viskase common stock, representing 31% of the then outstanding common stock of Viskase, for $18.8 million. In June and July 1996, Zapata purchased 1,688,006 additional shares of Viskase common stock. As a result of these transactions, Zapata currently owns approximately 38% of the outstanding shares of Viskase common stock. Because Zapata has not guaranteed any obligations and is not committed to provide any financial support to Viskase, Zapata only recorded its equity in Viskase's loss to the extent that it reduced Zapata's net investment in Viskase to zero. At June 30, 2001, the fair value of Zapata's investment in Viskase was approximately $8.8 million based on the closing price of Viskase on that day. This calculation does not consider any discount that may be incurred if the Company sold a large block of Viskase stock. NOTE 4. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY On January 30, 2001, the Company effected a one-for-ten reverse split of its outstanding shares of common stock resulting in there then being approximately 2.4 million common shares outstanding. In addition, the Company's authorized shares were reduced to approximately 16.5 million common shares, 200,000 preferred shares and 1.8 million preference shares. The preferred stock and preference shares are undesignated "blank check" shares. All share and per share amounts herein have been retroactively restated for the reverse split. NOTE 5. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES LITIGATION On April 30, 1999, a state district court in Houston, Texas entered a judgment against Zapata in a lawsuit brought by a former employee that was commenced on April 1, 1998. The former employee claims that he was entitled to the value of options for approximately 240,000 shares (24,000 shares subsequent to the reverse stock split effected January 30, 2001) of Zapata stock, which he alleges should have been issued to him in 1998 pursuant to his employment agreement with Zapata. The judgment against Zapata was for approximately $3.45 million, which includes prejudgment interest. Zapata secured a letter of credit as a post judgment security and on July 29, 1999 perfected its appeal with the Court of Appeal, for the Fourteenth District of Texas at Houston. On March 15, 2001, the Court of Appeals for the Fourteenth District at Houston issued an opinion reversing the jury verdict in favor of the former employee and rendering judgment in favor of the Company. On April 16, 2001, the former employee filed a motion for a rehearing The Company has responded to the motion and it is currently under review by the Court of Appeals. The Company continues to believe that it has a meritorious defense to all or a substantial portion of the plaintiff's claim. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful with respect to the Court of Appeals' determination of the motion for a rehearing or if the decision is further appealed and the Texas Supreme Court decides to hear the appeal. The Company is involved in litigation to claims arising out of its past and current operations in the normal course of its business. The Company maintains coverage against such potential ordinary course claims in an amount that it believes to be adequate. While the results of any ultimate resolution can not be predicted, in the opinion of the Company's management, based on discussion with counsel, any losses resulting from these matters will not have a material adverse effect on Zapata's results of operations, cash flows or financial position. ENVIRONMENTAL The Company is subject to various possible claims and lawsuits regarding environmental matters. Management believes that costs, if any, related to these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the results of operations, cash flows or financial position of the Company. 7

Those inventory write-downs were made necessary due to market prices the Company either had received or expected to receive for its products which had declined to a level below the Company's cost basis in those products. Product inventories at June 30, 2001 were stated at the lower of cost or market and no further write-downs were required. 8

NOTE 8. LONG-TERM INVESTMENTS -- AVAILABLE FOR SALE As of June 30, 2001, the Company held approximately $5.4 million in available for sale corporate debt. These bonds are considered non-investment grade and were purchased at a large discount to par value. The risk of default on the bonds is considered high. Available for sale securities consist of the following at June 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000: JUNE 30, 2001 AMORTIZED MARKET VALUE UNREALIZED COST BASIS JUNE 30, 2001 GAIN (LOSS) ---------- ------------- ----------- Decora Industries, Inc. $ 509 $ 509 $ -- Pueblo Xtra, Inc. 3,984 3,984 -- Franks Nursery & Crafts, Inc. 220 220 -- Newcor, Inc 667 667 -- ------ ------ ----- Total $5,380 $5,380 $ -- ====== ====== ===== DECEMBER 31, 2000 AMORTIZED MARKET VALUE UNREALIZED COST BASIS DECEMBER 31, 2000 GAIN (LOSS) ---------- ----------------- ----------- Decora Industries, Inc. $ 1,273 $ 1,273 $ -- Pueblo Xtra, Inc. 12,589 8,854 (3,735) Franks Nursery & Crafts, Inc. 368 394 26 Newcor, Inc. 1,954 1,250 (704) Davel Communications, Inc. 1,625 1,625 -- -------- -------- -------- Total $ 17,809 $ 13,396 $ (4,413) ======== ======== ======== As of December 31, 2000, management deemed the decline in the fair value of the Company's investment in Decora Industries Inc. ("Decora") to be "other than temporary" following Decora's announcement that it had filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. In connection with this impairment, the Company recognized an additional loss on the investment during the first quarter of 2001 of approximately $764,000 resulting in a remaining book value of approximately $509,000. As the market value of this investment was unchanged as of June 30, 2001, no additional impairment charges were incurred during the second quarter. A valuation allowance on the deferred tax asset for anticipated future tax deductions associated with realized losses on this investment has been established as it is more likely than not that there will be insufficient capital gains such that the Company will be able to deduct these capital losses in future periods or that this investment will be sold on a timely basis to benefit from a capital loss carryback. As of June 30, 2001, management deemed the decline in the fair value of the Company's investment in Pueblo Xtra, Inc. ("Pueblo") to be "other than temporary" based on adverse financial trends and intense competitive pressures on Pueblo. In connection with this impairment, the Company recognized a loss on the investment of approximately $8.6 million resulting in a remaining book value of approximately $4.0 million. A valuation allowance on the deferred tax asset for anticipated future tax deductions associated with realized losses on this investment has been established as it is more likely than not that there will be insufficient capital gains such that the Company will be able to deduct these capital losses in future periods or that this investment will be sold on a timely basis to benefit from a capital loss carryback. As of March 31, 2001, management deemed the decline in the fair value of the Company's investment in Franks Nursery & Crafts, Inc. ("Franks" or Franks Nursery") to be "other than temporary" following Franks Nursery's announcement that it had filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. In connection with this impairment, during the first quarter of 2001, the Company recognized a loss on the investment of approximately $153,000 resulting in a remaining book value of approximately $220,000. As the market value of these investments was unchanged as of June 30, 2001, no additional impairment charges were incurred during the 9

second quarter. A valuation allowance on the deferred tax asset for anticipated future tax deductions associated with realized losses on this investment has been established as it is more likely than not that there will be insufficient capital gains such that the Company will be able to deduct these capital losses in future periods or that this investment will be sold on a timely basis to benefit from a capital loss carryback. During June 2001, the Company entered into an agreement to sell its investment in Newcor, Inc. This transaction was settled in July, 2001. In connection with this sale, the Company recognized a loss of approximately $1.3 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2001 to write this investment down to market value. The realized capital loss on sale of this investment will be carried back to the fiscal 1998 tax return resulting in a benefit of approximately $455,000. In July 2000, the Company purchased participation interests in the bank debt of Davel Communications, Inc. and Davel Financing, LLC ("Davel"). Davel's bank debt consists of a $245 million facility, including a $110 million tranche A term loan, a $93.8 million tranche B term loan and a $ 45 million revolving credit facility. The Company's participation interest consists of an approximately 12.4% interest in the tranche A term loan, a 6.3% interest in the tranche B term loan and a 12.4% interest in the revolving credit facility. The Company paid or committed a total of approximately $5.2 million for its participation interest in the Davel bank debt. On February 6, 2001 the Company entered into an agreement to sell its interest in Davel for approximately $1.6 million. This transaction closed during the second quarter of 2001 resulting in a capital loss of approximately $3.8 million. Approximately $3.7 million of this amount was recognized in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2000 upon the Company's agreement to sell this investment. The realized capital loss on sale of this investment will be carried back to the fiscal 1998 tax return resulting in a benefit of approximately $1.3 million. NOTE 9. CONTRACT TERMINATION SETTLEMENT Based on the Board resolution to terminate Internet operations, certain contracts entered into by Zap.Com during its development stage were deemed to have no future value to the company. Accordingly, Zap.Com recognized the expenses and associated accrued liabilities in the fourth quarter of 2000. In March of 2001, Zap.Com favorably settled disputes over two of its contracts. Zap.Com reversed previous accruals of $403,000 as income resulting from the settlement amounts being less than the associated accrued liabilities. 10

ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 141 Business Combinations" and No. 142 "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." SFAS No. 141 requires that all business combinations be accounted for under the purchase method only and that certain acquired intangible assets in a business combination be recognized as assets apart from goodwill. SFAS No. 142 requires that ratable amortization of goodwill be replaced with periodic tests of the goodwill's impairment and that intangible assets other than goodwill be amortized over their useful lives. SFAS No. 141 is effective for all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. The provisions of SFAS No. 142 are effective for all fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001, and will therefore be adopted by the Company January 1, 2002. The Company does not believe the adoption of SFAS No. 141 and No. 142 will have a material effect on the Company's financial position or its results of operations. In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," which, as amended, is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. SFAS 133 establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts (collectively referred to as derivatives) and for hedging activities. SFAS No. 133 requires the recognition of all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the statement of financial position and the measurement of those instruments at fair value. The adoption of SFAS No. 133 did not have a material impact on the Company's financial position or its results of operations. 12

Note 13, Restatement - -------------------- The Company's financial statements as of and for the three months and six month periods ended June 30, 2001 have been restated from amounts previously reported to reflect Omega's re-characterization of a second quarter charge as a selling, general and administrative expense as opposed to a component of Inventory production cost, as previously reported. This expense was recorded to appropriately value receivables due from one of Omega's insurers as a result of that insurer's recent bankruptcy. The following tables show the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations and Balance Sheet line items that have been restated.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Forward-looking statements in this Form 10-Q, future filings by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("Commission"), the Company's press releases and oral statements by authorized officers of the Company are intended to be subject to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Investors are cautioned that all forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainty, including without limitation those identified from time to time in press releases and other communications with stockholders by the Company and the filings made with the Commission by the Company, Omega Protein Corporation ("Omega Protein" or "Omega"), ZAP.COM Corporation ("Zap.Com"), Viskase Companies, Inc. ("Viskase") and the Company, such as those disclosed under the caption "Significant Factors That Could Affect Future Performance and Forward-Looking Statements" appearing in Item 2 "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation" of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2000 filed with the Commission or elsewhere in this report. The Company believes that forward-looking statements made by it are based on reasonable expectations. However, no assurances can be given that actual results will not differ materially from those contained in such forward-looking statements. GENERAL Zapata Corporation ("Zapata" or the "Company") is a holding company, which since April 1998 has, through its subsidiaries, operated primarily in two industry segments: the food segment and the Internet segment. Zapata operates its food related businesses indirectly through its 61% owned subsidiary, Omega, and its 38% owned company, Viskase. Zapata has operated its Internet related businesses directly and indirectly through its wholly owned subsidiary, Charged Productions, and its 98% owned subsidiary, Zap.Com. In December 2000, the Company made a strategic decision to cease the operations of Charged Productions, Inc. ("Charged Productions") a multi-media production company that operated www.charged.com, www.sissyfight.com, and www.pixeltime.com. During April 2001, the Company completed its sale of Charged Productions to a company formed by former employees whereby the Company received 20% of the outstanding equity in that company in exchange for certain remaining assets of Charged Productions. On December 15, 2000, the Zap.Com Board of Directors concluded that Zap.Com's operations were not likely to become profitable in the foreseeable future and therefore, it was in the best interest of the Company and its stockholders to cease all Internet operations. Since that date, Zap.Com has terminated all salaried employees and all signed agreements with web site owners who joined the ZapNetwork. In addition, Zap.Com has terminated all third party contractual relationships entered into in connection with its Internet business. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Three Months Ended June 30, 2001 and 2000 Zapata experienced a consolidated net loss of approximately $9.9 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2001 compared to net loss of approximately $410,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2000. The loss was primarily attributable to other than temporary losses on non-investment grade securities held by the Company and losses at Omega Protein. Revenues. For the three-months ended June 30, 2001, Zapata's revenues decreased approximately 8.7% from the quarter ended June 30, 2000. The decrease in revenues was attributable to a 30.2% decrease in sale volumes for Omega Protein's fish meal during the current quarter as compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2000. Fish meal prices and fish oil prices increased 18.1% and 7.2% respectively during the current quarter as compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2000. Cost of Sales. Zapata's consolidated cost of sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2001 was $17.0 million, a $4.0 million decrease from $21.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2000. Cost of sales primarily includes Omega Protein's direct fishing and processing costs. As a percent of revenues, cost of sales was 89.3% for the quarter ended June 30, 2001 as compared to 100.6% for the quarter ended June 30, 2000. The decrease in cost of sales as a percent of revenues was due primarily to a 30.2% decrease in sales volumes for the Omega Protein's fish meal, along with an 18.1% and 7.2% increase in the Omega Protein's selling prices for fish meal and fish oil, respectively. (RESTATED) 14

Product Development. There were no product development costs for the three months ended June 30, 2001, as compared to $971,000 of such costs for the three months ended June 30, 2000. This decrease is due to the decision to terminate the Company's Internet operations in 2000. Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses. For the quarter ended June 30, 2001, Zapata's consolidated selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $142,000 or 3.6% compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2000. This decrease was primarily due to the termination of the Internet operations offset by Omega Proteins recognition of a provision of $856,000 related to receivables due from an insurance company that were deemed uncollectible due to their bankruptcy filing. (RESTATED) Consulting Income. On October 20, 1999, Zap.Com granted to American Internetwork Sports Company, LLC stock warrants in consideration for sports related consulting services. Pursuant to the termination of the Internet operations, these warrants became fully vested on December 15, 2000. As a result, Zap.Com incurred no additional consulting expense for the three months ended June 30, 2001. For the three months ended June 30, 2000, the Company recognized $1.1 million in income to reflect the decline in the fair market value of Zap.Com's common stock. Interest Income, Net. Interest income, net decreased by $1.9 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2001 as compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2000. The decrease was primarily due to lower interest rates on cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments as compared to the previous quarter in addition to a reduction in cash available for investment. Realized Loss On Non-Investment Grade Securities. Realized loss on non-investment grade securities for the quarter ending June 30, 2001 consisted mainly of the write-down to market value of the non-investment grade debt held in the Company's available for sale portfolio. The impairment for that portion of the unrealized loss of an individual security is required to be recognized as a realized loss in the accounting period when the holder determines that such portion of the decline in the market value is other than temporary. Temporary declines in the market value of Zapata's debt securities held to maturity do not affect Zapata's carrying value of such securities, since Zapata has the ability and the intent to hold these investments to maturity, at which time their full face value is expected to be received at no loss to Zapata. Temporary fluctuations in the market value of available for sale securities are reflected in stockholders' equity as unrealized appreciation or depreciation net of applicable deferred federal income taxes; however, any decline in the value of the security below its cost considered to be "other than temporary" is reflected as a realized loss in Zapata's income statement. Once an investment is written down to reflect an "other than temporary" decline, the write-down establishes a new cost basis for the security. For the quarter ended June 30, 2001, Zapata had an other than temporary write-down related to Pueblo Xtra, Inc.(Pueblo). Management deemed the decline in the fair value of the Company's investments in Pueblo to be "other than temporary" based on adverse financial trends and intense competitive pressures on Pueblo. In connection with this impairment, the Company recognized a loss on the investment of approximately $8.6 million resulting in a remaining book value of approximately $4.0 million. In addition to the other than temporary write-down on Pueblo, the Company sold its investment in Newcor, Inc. in July 2001. In connection with this sale, the Company recognized a loss of approximately $1.3 million. In addition, during the second quarter of 2001, the Company completed its transaction to sell its interest in Davel Communications, Inc. which resulted in an additional loss of $120,000. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets. For the quarter ended June 30, 2001, the impairment of long-lived assets consisted mainly of the write-down of Charged Productions, Inc.'s investment in Charged Productions LLC to zero. This write-down resulted in a charge of $208,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2001. There was no impairment of long-lived assets for the comparable quarter of the previous year. Six Months Ended June 30, 2001 and 2000 Zapata experienced a consolidated net loss of approximately $11.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001 compared to net loss of approximately $3.1 for the six months ended June 30, 2000. The loss was primarily attributable to other than temporary losses on non-investment grade securities and losses at Omega Protein, partially offset by interest income earned by Zapata. 15

Revenues. For the six months ended June 30, 2001, Zapata's revenues decreased approximately 5.4% from the quarter ended June 30, 2000. This decrease was attributable to a 22.0% lower sales volume for Omega Protein's fish meal during the current six months ended June 30, 2001 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2000. The decrease in revenues due to lower fish meal sale volumes was partially offset by a 15.2% and a 1.2% increase in fish meal and fish oil prices during the six months ended June 30, 2001, respectively. Cost of Sales. Zapata's consolidated cost of sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2001 was $35.0 million, a $4.5 million decrease from $39.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2000. Cost of sales primarily includes Omega Protein's direct fishing and processing costs. As a percent of revenues, cost of sales was 91.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2001 as compared to 98.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2000. The decrease in cost of sales, as a percentage of revenue is due primarily to a 15.2% and a 1.2% increase in fish meal and fish oil prices, respectively. Per ton cost of sales was 2.6% higher for the six month period ended June 30, 2001 as compared to the six month period ended June 30, 2000, due primarily to higher cost inventories carried forward from Fiscal 2000. (RESTATED) Product Development. There were no product development costs for the six months ended June 30, 2001, as compared to $1.5 million of such costs for the six months ended June 30, 2000. This decrease is due to the decision to terminate the Company's Internet operations in 2000. Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses. For the six months ended June 30, 2001, Zapata's consolidated selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $1.4 million or 16.9% compared to the six months ended June 30, 2000. This decrease was primarily due to the termination of the Internet operations and a reduction in employee staff and related employee costs at Omega Protein, offset by Omega Proteins recognition of a provision of $856,000 related to receivables due from an insurance company that were deemed uncollectible due to their bankruptcy filing. (RESTATED) Consulting Expenses. On October 20, 1999, Zap.Com granted to American Internetwork Sports Company, LLC stock warrants in consideration for sports related consulting services. As a result of the termination of the Company's Internet operations, these warrants became fully vested on December 15, 2000, and Zap.Com incurred no additional consulting expense for the six months ended June 30, 2001. For the six months ended June 30, 2000, the Company recognized $1.1 million in consulting expense to reflect the increase in the fair market value of Zap.Com's common stock. Contract Termination Settlement. Based on Zap.Com's decision to terminate Internet operations, certain contracts entered into by Zap.Com during its development stage were deemed to have no future value to Zap.Com. Accordingly, Zap.Com recognized the expenses and associated accrued liabilities for these contracts in the fourth quarter of 2000. In March of 2001, Zap.Com favorably settled its disputes over two of its contracts. Accordingly, Zap.Com reversed previous accruals of $403,000 as income resulting from the settlement amounts being less than the associated accrued liabilities. There were no associated charges or benefits for the six months ended June 30, 2000. Interest Income, net. Interest income, net decreased by $2.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2000. The decrease was primarily due to lower interest rates on cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments as compared to the previous quarter in addition to a reduction in cash available for investment. Realized Loss On Non-Investment Grade Securities. Realized loss on non-investment grade securities for the six months ending June 30, 2001 consisted mainly of the write-down to market value of the non-investment grade debt held in the Company's available for sale portfolio. For the six months ended June 30, 2001, Zapata had other than temporary write-downs related to Pueblo, Franks Nursery and Decora. Management deemed the decline in the fair value of the Company's investments in Pueblo to be "other than temporary" based on adverse financial trends and intense competitive pressures on the company. In connection with this impairment, the Company recognized a loss of approximately $8.6 million. Management deemed the decline in the fair value of the Company's investments in Franks Nursery and Decora to be "other than temporary" following both companies' announcements that they had filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. In connection with these impairments, the Company recognized a loss of approximately $917,000. 16

In addition to the other than temporary write-down on Pueblo, the Company sold its investment in Newcor, Inc. in July 2001. In connection with this anticipated sale, the Company recognized a loss of approximately $1.3 million to adjust the investment to fair market value at June 30, 2001. In addition, during the second quarter of 2001, the Company completed its transaction to sell its interest in Davel Communications, Inc. which resulted in an additional loss of $120,000. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets. For the six months ended June 30, 2001, the impairment of long-lived assets consisted mainly of the write-down of Charged Productions, Inc.'s investment in Charged LLC to zero. This write-down resulted in a charge of $208,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2001. There was no impairment of long-lived assets for the comparable six months of the previous year. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Prior to Omega Protein's 1998 initial public offering, Zapata, as the sole stockholder of Omega Protein, caused cash to be moved between it and Omega Protein as each company had cash needs. As a result of the offering, Zapata and Omega Protein are now separate public companies. Similarly, since Zapata's distribution of Zap.Com shares to Zapata stockholders in November 1999, Zapata and Zap.Com are separate public companies. Accordingly, the capital resources and liquidity of Omega Protein and Zap.Com are legally independent of Zapata. The working capital and other assets of Omega Protein and Zap.Com are dedicated to their respective operations and are not expected to be readily available for the general corporate purposes of Zapata, except for any dividends that may be declared and paid to their respective stockholders. For the foreseeable future, Zapata does not expect to receive cash dividends on its Omega Protein or Zap.Com shares. Zapata's current source of liquidity is its cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments and the interest income it earns on its investments. Zapata's investments consist of U.S. Government agency securities, cash equivalents and non-investment grade debt. At June 30, 2001, the Company's cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments were $84.0 million (including $16.0 million attributable to Omega Protein) as compared to $96.0 million (including $16.9 million attributable to Omega Protein) as of the same period in the previous fiscal year. Through June 2000, Zapata had invested its excess cash reserves in U.S. Government agency securities and cash equivalents. In June 2000, Zapata management determined that the non-investment grade debt market provided an opportunity for the Company to meet the funding requirements of its Internet business and corporate overhead activities while leveraging its available funds for future acquisitions. Specifically, Zapata management believed that this debt would yield sufficient income to support its direct operations and free-up capital otherwise committed for this purpose for deployment in future acquisitions. The Company's future investment income related to non-investment grade securities is expected to decline due to the sale of certain non-investment grade securities and may decline further due to additional sales of such securities. In addition, the Company suffered losses in principal due to sales of non-investment grade securities and may suffer additional losses in principal if the Company decides to sell other securities that have declined in market value. In addition to its cash, cash equivalents, investments and interest income, Zapata has a potential secondary source of liquidity in its publicly traded securities of Omega Protein, Zap.Com and Viskase. Zapata's holdings of Omega Protein and Zap.Com stock constitute "restricted stock" under SEC Rule 144 and may only be sold in the public market pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933 and under any required state securities laws or pursuant to an available exemption. Zapata's Viskase holdings may also be considered to be "restricted securities" under Rule 144. These and other securities law restrictions could prevent or delay any sale by Zapata of these securities or reduce the amount of proceeds that might otherwise be realized there from. Currently, all of Zapata's equity securities holdings are eligible for sale under Rule 144. Zapata also has demand and piggyback registration rights for its Omega Protein and Zap.Com shares and Zapata has registered with the SEC for resale 1,000,000 shares of Zap.Com common stock. As of the date of this report, it has not sold any of its Zap.Com shares and there is no assurance that it will or can sell these shares. Although Zap.Com is publicly traded, the market for its shares has to date been thin. At June 30, 2001, Zapata had $15.5 million in consolidated indebtedness, all of which was Omega Protein's indebtedness. Zapata's liquidity needs are primarily for operating expenses, litigation and insurance reserves, possible stock repurchases and acquisitions or investments. The Company also intends to invest a 17

significant portion of its cash assets in investments or operating businesses as soon as practicable. To pay for or fund these acquisitions, Zapata may need to raise additional capital through the issuance of equity or debt. There is no assurance, however, that such capital will be available at the time, in the amounts necessary or with terms satisfactory to Zapata. In the absence of unforeseen developments, Zapata believes that it has sufficient liquidity to fund its operating expenses and other operational requirements at least for the 12 months following the date of this report. Cash Flows From Operating Activities Cash provided by operating activities was $8.0 million for the first six months of 2001, compared to $6.9 million for the same period in 2000. The increase in cash provided by operation activities was due primarily to the reduction in inventory purchases and receivable levels at Omega Protein as compared to the prior period. Cash Flows From Investing Activities Cash provided by investing activities was $37.3 million for the first six months of 2001, compared to $3.2 million for the comparable period in 2000. The increase of cash provided by investing activities was due primarily to maturities of short-term investments which were reinvested and are now classified as Cash and Cash Equivalents. See Item 3 -- "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk." Cash Flows From Financing Activities Cash used in financing activities was $533,000 for the first six months of 2001, compared to $578,000 for the comparable period in 2000. Both uses of cash were for the repayments of long-term obligations. 18

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK The Company's investment policy is designed to continue to meet Zapata's liquidity needs while enhancing returns by supplementing its investment grade securities with non-investment grade debt. Zapata's investment grade securities include obligations of the U.S. Government or agencies thereof guaranteed by the U.S. Government, certificates of deposit and money market deposits. In addition, Omega Protein holds commercial paper with a rating of A-2 or P-2. Zapata defines non-investment grade debt to include debt rated BB+ or lower as well as non-rated loans. These non-investment grade instruments generally involve greater risk than investment grade securities due to credit considerations and default risks, lack of liquidity in secondary trading markets and vulnerability to general economic conditions. The Company generally expects to hold this debt to maturity unless market conditions or other circumstances warrant the disposition of the debt prior to such time. As of June 30, 2001, Zapata held $84.0 million in investment grade securities. Changes in interest rates affect the investment income the Company earns on its investment grade securities and, therefore, impacts its cash flows and results of operations. Due to the short duration and conservative nature of these instruments, the Company does not believe that the value of these instruments have a material exposure to interest rate risk. As of June 30, 2001, Zapata held $5.4 million in non-investment grade debt. Changes in interest rates can affect the market value of the Company's non-investment grade debt. For example, a hypothetical 10% adverse change in the quoted market prices for this debt would amount to a $540,000 potential decline in the fair value of these assets as of June 30, 2001. The Company generally expects to hold this debt to maturity unless market conditions or other circumstances warrant the disposition of the debt prior to such time. In the normal course of business, the financial condition of the Company is exposed to minimal market risk associated with interest rate movements on Omega Protein's borrowings. A one percent increase or decrease in the levels of interest rates on variable rate debt would not result in a material change to the Company's results of operations. 19

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS On April 30, 1999, a state district court in Houston, Texas entered a judgment against Zapata in a lawsuit brought by a former employee that was commenced on April 1, 1998. The former employee claims that he was entitled to the value of options for approximately 240,000 shares (24,000 shares subsequent to the reverse stock split effected January 30, 2001) of Zapata stock, which he alleges should have been issued to him in 1998 pursuant to his employment agreement with Zapata. The judgment against Zapata was for approximately $3.45 million, which includes prejudgment interest. Zapata secured a letter of credit as a post judgment security and on July 29, 1999 perfected its appeal with the Court of Appeal, for the Fourteenth District of Texas at Houston. On March 15, 2001, the Court of Appeals for the Fourteenth District at Houston issued an opinion reversing the jury verdict in favor of the former employee and rendering judgment in favor of the Company. On April 16, 2001, the former employee filed a motion for a rehearing The Company has responded to the motion and it is currently under review by the Court of Appeals. The Company continues to believe that it has a meritorious defense to all or a substantial portion of the plaintiff's claim. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful with respect to the Court of Appeals' determination of the motion for a rehearing or if the decision is further appealed and the Texas Supreme Court decides to hear the appeal. The Company is involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of its past and current operations in the normal course of its business. The Company maintains insurance coverage against such potential ordinary course claims in an amount that it believes to be adequate. While the results of any ultimate resolution cannot be predicted, in the opinion of the Company's management, based on discussion with counsel, any losses resulting from these matters will not have a material adverse effect on Zapata's results of operations, cash flows or financial position. Environmental Matters The Company is subject to various possible claims and lawsuits regarding environmental matters. Management believes that costs, if any, related to these matters will not have a material adverse affect on the results of operations, cash flows or financial position of the Company. ITEM 2.
