(Nasdaq: ARCI) today announced that its recycling contract with the Southern
California Public Power Authority (SCPPA) has been expanded to include the Los
Angeles Department of Water and Power (LADWP), for whom ARCA will replace and
recycle 50,000 old, inefficient refrigerators owned by low-income residents in
the city. The 12-month program is expected to generate revenues for ARCA of
approximately $25 million.</p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">SCPPA is a consortium of municipal utilities operating in Southern

years old from the homes of low-income LADWP customers and replace them with
new, high-efficiency units. ARCA will also dispose of the old, inefficient
refrigerators in an environmentally sound manner.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Edward R. (Jack) Cameron, ARCA&#146;s president and chief executive officer,
commented: &#147;We are gratified that the LADWP has entrusted ARCA with the
implementation of this important energy conservation and environmental
initiative, which is scheduled to commence April 30. Supported by our long
experience in environmentally sound appliance recycling and established
infrastructure in Southern California, ARCA is positioned to help make this
program a success for the residents of Los Angeles.&#148;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt;"><b><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;font-weight:bold;">About ARCA</font></b></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">ARCA is one of the nation&#146;s largest recyclers of major household
appliances for the energy conservation programs of electric utilities. Through
its ApplianceSmart operation, ARCA also is one of the nation&#146;s leading
retailers of special-buy household appliances, primarily those manufactured by
Maytag, GE, Frigidaire and Whirlpool. These special-buy appliances, which
include close-outs, factory overruns and scratch-and-dent units, typically are
not integrated into the manufacturer&#146;s normal distribution channel.
ApplianceSmart sells these virtually new appliances at a discount to full
retail, offers a 100% money-back guarantee and provides warranties on parts and
labor. As of April 2007, ApplianceSmart was operating 15 factory outlets: five
in the Minneapolis/St. Paul market; three in the Columbus, Ohio, market; four
in the Atlanta market; two in San Antonio, Texas; and one in Los Angeles.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Statements about ARCA&#146;s outlook are forward-looking and involve risks
and uncertainties, including but not limited to: the strength of recycling
programs, the growth of appliance retail sales, the speed at which individual
retail stores reach profitability, and other factors discussed in the Company&#146;s
filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.</font></p>
