EXPLANATORY NOTE
We are filing this second amendment to our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005 (the “10-K”) because we did not obtain approval for the reissuance of the report of the predecessor independent registered public accounting firm on their audit of our December 31,2005 financial statements which was included in an amendment to the 10-K filed on December 12, 2006 (the “First Amendment”). The First Amendment was filed to include additional language in the financial statement footnotes regarding the exercise provision of the underwriter’s options and the warrants; in particular to describe the fact that the warrants cannot be exercised unless there is a current registration covering the underlying shares and because we are only obligated to use our best efforts to maintain an effective registration statement and may be unable to do so, the underwriter’s option and warrants may expire worthless. We did not seek the approval for the reissuance of the predecessor registered public accounting firm’s report in the mistaken belief that it was not required due to the nature of the additional disclosure. Included in this amendment to the Form 10-K is currently dated certifications from our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as required by Sections 302 and 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (See Exhibits 31 and 32).
Except to the extent modified or updated, the foregoing items have not been amended to reflect other events occurring after the original filing or to modify or update those disclosures affected by subsequent events. Other events occurring after the filing of the original filing or other disclosures necessary to reflect subsequent events have been addressed in the Company’s reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission subsequent to the filing of the original filing.

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

STONE ARCADE ACQUISITION CORPORATION
(a development stage company)
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2005
Note A - Organization, Business Operations and Subsequent Events
Stone Arcade Acquisition Corporation (the "Company') was incorporated in Delaware on April 15, 2005. The Company was formed to serve as a vehicle for the acquisition through a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, or other similar business combination ("Business Combination") of an operating business in the paper, packaging, forest products and related industries. The Company has neither engaged in any operations nor generated operating revenue. The Company is considered to be in the development stage and is subject to the risks associated with activities of development stage companies. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.
The registration statement for the Company's initial public offering (the "Offering") was declared effective on August 15, 2005. The Company consummated the Offering on August 19, 2005 and received net proceeds of approximately $113,236,000. The Company's management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Offering (as described in Note C), although substantially all of the net proceeds of the Offering are intended to be generally applied toward a Business Combination. Furthermore, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect a Business Combination. Of the net proceeds, $111,965,034 including interest received and accrued less estimated tax payments of $325,000 is being held in a trust account ("Trust Fund") and invested in government securities until the earlier of (i) the consummation of the first Business Combination or (ii) the distribution of the Trust Fund as described below. The interest income is subject to additional taxes incurred, but not yet paid, as of December 31, 2005. The remaining proceeds may be used to pay for business, legal and accounting due diligence on prospective business combinations and continuing general and administrative expenses. The Company, after signing a definitive agreement for the acquisition of a target business, will submit such transaction for stockholder approval. In the event that holders of 20 percent or more of the shares issued in the Offering vote against the Business Combination and elect to redeem their shares, the Business Combination will not be consummated. If holders of less than 20 percent of the shares issued in the Offering vote against the Business Combination and elect to have their shares redeemed, the Business Combination will be consummated and the shares of such holders will be redeemed at the net offering price, $5.54, plus interest income allocable to such shares, net of income taxes. The number of shares subject to possible redemption is 3,998,000. At December 31, 2005, the Company has classified $22,349,177 of the net proceeds from the Offering plus interest, but net of taxes, as common stock subject to possible redemption in the accompanying balance sheet.
In the event that the Company does not consummate a Business Combination within 18 months from the date of the consummation of the Offering, or 24 months from the consummation of the Offering if certain extension criteria have been satisfied (the "Acquisition period"), the proceeds held in the Trust Fund will be distributed to the Company's public stockholders, excluding the persons who were stockholders prior to the Offering (the "Founding Stockholders") to the extent of their initial stock holdings. However, the Founding Stockholders will participate in any liquidation distribution with respect to any shares of common stock they acquired in connection with or following the Offering. In the event of such distribution, it is likely that the per share value of the residual assets remaining available for distribution (including Trust Fund assets) will be less than the initial public offering price per share in the Offering (assuming no value is attributed to the Warrants contained in the Units in the Offering discussed in Note C).
Note B - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
[1] | Cash and cash equivalents: |
All highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents. |
[2] | Earnings per common share: |
Basic income per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income per share reflects the potential dilution assuming common shares were issued upon the exercise of outstanding in-the-money warrants and the proceeds thereof were used to purchase common shares at the average market price during the period. |

Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2005
Note B - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
[3] | Use of estimates: |
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
[4] | Income taxes: |
Deferred income taxes are provided for the differences between the bases of assets and liabilities for financial reporting and income tax purposes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. A valuation allowance is established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. |
Note C - Initial Public Offering
On August 19, 2005, the Company sold 20,000,000 units ("Units"). Each Unit consisted of one share of the Company's common stock, $.0001 par value, and two warrants ("Warrants"). Each Warrant entities the holder to purchase from the Company one share of common stock at an exercise price of $5.00. Each warrant is exercisable on the later of (a) the completion of a Business Combination or (b) August 15, 2006, and expires on August 15, 2009. The Warrants are redeemable at a price of $.01 per Warrant upon 30 days notice after the Warrants become exercisable, only in the event that the last sale price of the common stock is at least $8.50 per share for any 20 trading days within a 30 trading day period ending on the third day prior to the date on which notice of redemption is given.
In connection with the Offering, the Company paid the underwriters an underwriting discount of 5 percent of the gross proceeds of the Offering. The Company also issued for $100 an option to the representative of the underwriters to purchase up to a total of 1,000,000 units at a price of $7.50 per unit. The units issuable upon the exercise of this option are identical to those offered in the prospectus, except that the exercise price of the warrants included in the underwriters' purchase option is $6.25. This option is exercisable commencing on the later of the consummation of a business combination or one year from the date of the Offering, expires five years from the date of the Offering, and may be exercised on a cashless basis. The option may not be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated until August 16, 2006. However, the option may be transferred to any underwriter and selected dealer participating in the Offering and their bona fide officers or partners.
The underwriters’ purchase option and the Warrants (including the warrants underlying the underwriters’ option) will be exercisable only if at the time of exercise a current registration statement covering the underlying securities is effective or, in the opinion of counsel, not required, and if the securities are qualified for sale or exempt from qualification under the applicable state securities laws of the exercising holder. The Company is obligated to use its best efforts to maintain an effective registration statement during the term of the option and the Warrants; however, it may be unable to do so. Holders of the option and the Warrants are not entitled to receive a net cash settlement or other settlement in lieu of physical settlement if the common stock underlying the Warrants, or securities underlying the option, as applicable, are not covered by an effective registration statement. Accordingly, the Warrants, which do not have a cashless exercise provision, may expire unexercised and worthless if a current registration statement covering the common stock is not effective.
The holders of the option have demand and piggy-back registration rights under the Securities Act for periods of five and seven years, respectively, from the date of the Offering with respect to registration of the securities directly and indirectly issuable upon exercise of the option. The exercise price and number of units issuable upon exercise of the option may be adjusted in certain circumstances, including issuances of a stock dividend, recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, the option will not be adjusted for issuances at a price below its exercise price.

Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2005
Note C - Initial Public Offering (continued)
The Company has estimated, based upon a Black Scholes model, that the fair value of the purchase option on the date of sale was approximately $980,000, using an expected life of four years, volatility of 23.9 percent, and a risk-free rate of 3.93 percent. However, because the Units did not have a trading history, the volatility assumption was based on information available to management. The volatility estimate was derived using five-year historical stock prices for the nine companies in the Standard and Poor's Supercomposite Paper Packaging Index. The Company believes the volatility estimate calculated from this index is a reasonable benchmark to use in estimating the expected volatility of the units; however, the use of an index to estimate volatility may not necessarily be representative of the volatility of the underlying securities. Although an expected life of four years was used in this calculation, if the Company does not consummate a Business Combination within the prescribed time period and liquidates, the option will become worthless.
The Company accounted for this purchase option, inclusive of the receipt of the $100 cash payment, as an expense of the Offering resulting in a charge directly to stockholders' equity. Accordingly there was no impact in the Company's financial position or results of operations except for the recording of the $100 proceeds from the sale.
In accordance with a commitment entered into in connection with the Offering, the Founding Stockholders have purchased 3,500,000 warrants in the public marketplace. They have further agreed that warrants purchased by them or their affiliates will not be sold or transferred until the completion of a Business Combination.
Note D - Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes for the period ended December 31, 2005 consists of the following:
Current | $ | 384,852 | ||
Deferred | 36,427 | |||
Total | $ | 421,279 |
Deferred tax assets and liabilities at December 31, 2005 consist of the following:
Deferred tax assets - start up costs | $ | 54,094 | ||
Deferred tax liability - accrued interest receivable | (90,521 | ) | ||
Net deferred tax liability | $ | (36,427 | ) |
Note E - Notes Payable to Stockholders
The Company issued non-interest bearing unsecured promissory notes to the Founding Stockholders of the Company totaling $200,000 on April 16 and April 25, 2005. The Notes were repaid in accordance with their terms on August 19, 2005 from the proceeds of the Offering.

Note F - Related-Party Transactions
The Company has agreed to pay Stone-Kaplan Investments, LLC, an entity where certain of the Founding Stockholders serve in executive capacities, an administrative fee of $7,500 per month for office space and general and administrative services from August 15, 2005 through the acquisition date of a target business. Stone-Kaplan Investments LLC has agreed to pay a portion of the aforementioned administration fee to Arcade Partners LLC, a company where certain of the Founding Stockholders serve in executive capacities. From time to time the Company retains the services of White Oak Aviation, a company solely owned by certain Founding Stockholders. For the period from inception to December 31, 2005, the amount paid to this entity was $11,829.
The Founding Stockholders have agreed with the Company and the underwriters that if the Company liquidates prior to the consummation of a Business Combination, they will be personally liable to pay debts and obligations to vendors that are owed money by the Company for services rendered or products sold to us in excess of the net proceeds not held in the trust account at that time.
Note G - Commitments
The Company has engaged the representative of the underwriters to act as its investment banker in connection with a Business Combination.
