Exhibit 99.1

ARCADE ACQUISITION CORP. ENTERS INTO DEFINITIVE AGREEMENTS TO PURCHASE TEN CONTAINER VESSELS FOR A TOTAL CONSIDERATION OF $262 MILLION

September 22, 2008 — New York, NY — Arcade Acquisition Corp. (OTC Bulletin Board: ACDQU; ACDQ; ACDQW) announced today that it has entered into a series of agreements pursuant to which it has agreed to acquire ten (10) feeder service containerships (with a total capacity of 21,135 TEU) for an aggregate purchase price of $261.7 million (the “Acquisition”). Six of the ten vessels will be purchased from Palmosa Shipping Corp. (“Palmosa”) in exchange for common stock and the repayment of debt and four will be acquired from companies whose ships are managed by Tsakos Shipping & Trading S.A. (“TST”) for a combination of cash and common stock.

In order to effect the Acquisition, Arcade and its newly-formed Marshall Islands subsidiary, Conbulk Corporation (“Conbulk” or the “Company”), will enter into an agreement and plan of merger (the “Merger Agreement”) pursuant to which Arcade will merge with and into Conbulk with Conbulk being the surviving entity (the “Redomiciliation Merger”). Conbulk will be the only U.S.-listed public container company focusing on providing feeder service and operating smaller vessels which accommodate regional trade flows around the world. Conbulk intends to apply for listing on the NASDAQ Global Market either upon the closing or shortly thereafter.

Conbulk has approximately three years remaining on its time charters, and anticipates generating approximately $60.3 million in revenue and $38.2 million in EBITDA in its first full year of operations, which represents a purchase price multiple of 6.85x the first year’s EBITDA.

The Acquisition, which will take place pursuant to a series of closings, will be financed by the issuance of approximately 9.7 million shares of Conbulk common stock ($76.1 million) to be issued to designees of Palmosa and TST (based on a stock price of $7.88), approximately $68.0 million of cash held in Arcade’s trust account, and borrowings of $126.4 million from an expected $200.0 million credit facility.  All of the consideration paid to Palmosa will be in stock.  On a primary basis following the final closing, 47.9% of the Company will be owned by designees of Palmosa and TST, 9.3% by the Arcade sponsors and 42.8% by the public.  The agreement also includes an earn-out incentive to Conbulk Management Ltd. (“Conbulk Management”), a Marshall Islands company jointly owned and controlled by Palmosa and Tsakos interests that will provide commercial and technical management services to the Company’s fleet after the Acquisition, of up to 3,500,000 additional shares should the Company achieve targeted EBITDA of $50-58 million and $70-78 million in the 2^nd and 3^rd years of operations, respectively.

Jonathan Furer, Arcade’s Chief Executive Officer, stated “The partnership brings together highly experienced management teams from the Dalakouras family and TST that have a long and established track record in international shipping. Palmosa is led by Dimitris Dalakouras, a member of the Dalakouras family which has acquired over 110 vessels in its 40 year history in the shipping industry. The Tsakos family is a leader in the global shipping industry with expertise in international tanker, dry bulk and container shipping. We intend to capitalize on the successful track record of Arcade management  in private equity and the SPAC market, including the IPO and subsequent business combination for Stone Arcade Acquisition Corp., now KapStone Paper and Packaging Corp. (NASDAQ:KPPC).” KapStone is a leading North American producer of kraft paper, linerboard and saturating kraft paper and recently completed the $475 million acquisition of the Charleston Kraft Business from MeadWestvaco.

Michael Jolliffe will become Conbulk’s non-executive Chairman. Mr. Jolliffe is currently Non-Executive Deputy Chairman of Tsakos Energy Navigation (NYSE:TNP) and Non-Executive Chairman of StealthGas (NASDAQ:GASS). Dimitris Dalakouras of Palmosa will be the Chief Executive Officer, Maria Tsakos will be President, George Bamiotis, co-owner of Palmosa will be the Chief Operating Officer, and Stefanos Kardamakis will be the Chief Financial Officer. In addition, Jonathan Furer and John Chapman, Arcade’s Chief Financial Officer, along with Dimitris Potamitis and Frans Malmros, will serve on Conbulk’s nine-member Board of Directors.

Upon the final closing of the Acquisition, Conbulk will own and operate 10 feeder service container vessels which are chartered out to large container liner operators under time charter contracts with an average remaining term of three years. The Company will be focused on smaller and more versatile containerships (under 4,000 TEU) providing feeder service worldwide. Nine out of the 10 vessels are chartered out to two of the three  largest container liner companies (MSC and CMA CGM wholly-owned subsidiary, Cheng Lie Navigation), while the tenth vessel is chartered to CCNI, a large cargo transportation operator based in Chile. These vessels will run charter routes in Europe, North and South America, the Caribbean, the Middle East, Africa/ India, Australia and across eastern Asia.

The Palmosa and TST designees and Arcade’s founding stockholders have opted to defer a portion of their dividends in the first year in order to offer to public investors an initial special dividend rate of $0.22 per share, implying a dividend yield of 11.2% based on a share price of $7.88. In line with management’s growth strategy for the Company, the targeted dividend rate for subsequent years is expected to be approximately $0.16 per share, or 8.1% per annum based on a share price of $7.88. Conbulk intends to pay dividends, on a quarterly basis, beginning with the first quarter following the closing.

Global demand has driven significant growth of container use and consequently container shipping over the past 10 years. Conbulk’s management believes that container shipping, especially the feeder segment, is under-represented in the public markets. None of the three current U.S. public container companies focuses on smaller vessels providing feeder service. Feeder service is essential to international trade as it provides service to both short and long routes that lack the volume demand to warrant service from larger vessels. Feeder vessels have access to smaller ports, straits and waterways that cannot be accessed by larger vessels and support growth of developing countries by providing regular services from and between local developing ports and large hub ports. Furthermore, according to industry sources, the new vessel order book for small containerships (1,000-4,000 TEU) stands only at 22% of the current worldwide fleet as compared to 175% for larger containerships (over 7,500 TEU).

The Company will continue to target vessels of 1,000 to 4,000 TEU and anticipates acquiring up to eight additional vessels by early 2011 through its acquisition program.  Management believes that rising containership demand and the thin order book for smaller containerships will create conditions to support market prices and charter rates for smaller containerships in the coming years.

Commenting on the transaction, Mr. Dalakouras stated: “We are particularly excited with the partnership, and we are looking forward to presenting this transaction to Arcade’s stockholders for their approval.  We believe this transaction offers the Arcade stockholders a favorable multiple and an attractive dividend rate. Our plans are to grow by taking advantage of the positive fundamentals of the feeder segment of the containership market, which we believe will enable us to enhance stockholder value. Following completion of the Acquisition, and assuming no redemptions, our net debt to enterprise value will be approximately 41%, below the level of our public peers. With the potential funds from warrant exercises, access to bank financing and by borrowing closer to industry levels, we expect to have the necessary funds to execute our fleet expansion plans. Conbulk’s strategy is to seek strong and predictable cash flows based on medium to long-term time charters with first class charterers, enabling us to implement an attractive and sustainable dividend policy without compromising our growth potential.”
