Item 1.01 Entry into a Definitive Material Agreement

Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure

Ascend Acquisition Corp. (“Ascend”) has entered into a definitive agreement (“Agreement”) to acquire ePAK Resources (S) Pte. Ltde (“PAK Resources”) as previously described in Ascend’s Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the Commission on July 31, 2007 (“Report”).

As part of the transaction, our public company will be redomiciled from Delaware to Bermuda. This redomestication shall be accomplished through an exchange of all of Ascend’s outstanding common stock, warrants and purchase options for substantially identical securities of ePAK International Limited (“ePAK International”), on a one-for-one basis. ePAK International is a subsidiary formed by Ascend for the sole purpose of effecting these transactions. At closing of the transactions, ePAK International will effect the acquisition of ePAK Resources, and the current holders of the Ascend public company and the holders of ePAK Resources will become holders of the ePAK International public company. Upon completion of the transactions, which is expected in the second quarter of 2008, ePAK International’s common stock and warrants are expected to trade on the NASDAQ Global Market.

As of January 1, 2008, following approval by Ascend’s board of directors and ePAK’s board of directors and stockholders, the parties adopted an amendment to the Agreement (“Amendment No. 1”) to clarify and modify certain provisions of the Agreement. Amendment No. 1 serves to, among other things, (1) modify the structure of the redomestication to provide that it will be accomplished via an exchange of the securities of ePAK International for those of Ascend (as described above), (2) eliminate the escrow provisions of the Agreement, but not the indemnity obligations, (3) extend the date on which a party may terminate the Agreement for any reason from February 13, 2008 to May 17, 2008 and (4) provide that the stockholder of ePAK Resources will receive shares of ePAK International in the acquisition transaction that represents not less than 50.1% of ePAK International’s outstanding common stock immediately following the transaction. Such Amendment No. 1 was executed and delivered on January 7, 2008. A copy of Amendment No. 1 is attached as Exhibit 10.1 hereto. You are urged to read Amendment No. 1, together with the Agreement, in their entirety.

A registration statement on Form S-4 with respect to the transactions was originally filed by Ascend with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on November 15, 2007. This filing has been amended and revised in response to SEC comments and to give effect to Amendment No. 1 through the filing a new registration statement on Form S-4 by ePAK International, as the public company following the transactions.
