Explanatory Note

    Ascend Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) filed on Mach 31, 2011 a Current Report on Form 8-K.  The date of such report, and the date of the information reported therein, was incorrect.  The purpose of this Amendment is to amend and restate the original filing in its entirety.
 
Item 1.01.                      Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 
On March 30, 2011, Ascend Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) issued a convertible promissory note to Jonathan J. Ledecky, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, with a principal amount of $25,000.  The note is due and payable in full on demand and bears interest at the rate of 5% per annum.  At any time prior to the payment in full of the entire balance of the note, Mr. Ledecky has the option of converting all or any portion of the unpaid balance of the note into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price equal to $0.19 per share, subject to adjustment upon certain events.  The conversion price was based on the market price of the Company’s common stock at the time of the issuance of the note.  Assuming no adjustment to the conversion price, if Mr. Ledecky converts the entire principal balance of the note, he would receive 131,579 shares of the Company’s common stock.
 
The preceding description of the terms, provisions and conditions of the note is a summary and is qualified in its entirety by the copy of the note that is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1.
