ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE EXTENSION AND BUSINESS COMBINATION AND WHERE TO FIND IT

In connection with the proposed Business Combination, Ascend Holdings, a newly formed Cayman Islands holding company which, following the Business Combination, will be the indirect parent of Ascend India, filed the Registration Statement with the SEC which includes the related preliminary proxy statement/prospectus (the “proxy statement/prospectus”), that is both the proxy statement to be distributed to holders of ROI’s common stock and public warrants in connection with the solicitation by ROI of proxies for the vote by the stockholders on the Business Combination and the vote by the warrantholders on a proposed amendment to the warrant agreement governing ROI’s outstanding warrants, as well as the prospectus covering the registration of the proposed issuance of ordinary shares to be issued in the Business Combination and pursuant to the warrant amendment proposal. In addition, ROI has filed a definitive proxy statement to be used at its special meeting of stockholders to approve an extension of time in which ROI must complete a business combination or liquidate the trust account that holds the proceeds of ROI’s initial public offering (the “Extension”). ROI has mailed the definitive proxy statement to its stockholders of record as of August 21, 2015 in connection with the Extension and will mail a definitive proxy statement/prospectus and other relevant documents to its stockholders and warrantholders, as applicable, for the special meetings related to the Business Combination and warrant agreement amendment. ROI’s stockholders and warrantholders and other interested persons are advised to read the definitive proxy statement in connection with the Extension and the preliminary proxy statement/prospectus included in the Registration Statement, and amendments thereto, and the definitive proxy statement/prospectus for the Business Combination and warrant agreement amendment, when available, because these documents will contain important information about the Extension, Ascend Holdings, Ascend India, ROI, the proposed Business Combination and the proposed warrant agreement amendment. The definitive proxy statement/prospectus for the proposed Business Combination and warrant agreement amendment will be mailed to stockholders and warrantholders of ROI, as applicable, as of a record date to be established for the special meetings of stockholders and warrantholders. Stockholders and warrantholders, as applicable, will also be able to obtain copies of the proxy statement for the Extension and the Registration Statement which includes the proxy statement/prospectus, without charge, once publicly filed and available, at the SEC's Internet site at http://www.sec.gov or by directing a request to: ROI Acquisition Corp. II, 601 Lexington Avenue, 51st Floor, New York, New York 10022, tel. (212) 825-0400, Attention: Joseph A. De Perio.

PARTICIPANTS IN THE SOLICITATION

ROI and its directors and officers may be deemed participants in the solicitation of proxies to ROI’s stockholders with respect to the Extension and the proposed Business Combination. A list of the names of those directors and officers and a description of their interests in ROI is contained in ROI’s prospectus dated September 16, 2013, which was filed with the SEC on September 18, 2013, and will also be contained in the definitive proxy statement for the proposed Business Combination when available.
