EXPLANATORY NOTE
     This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 relates to the Registration Statement on Form S-8 (File No. 333-132822) filed on March 29, 2006 (the “Registration Statement”), with the Securities and Exchange Commission by ACE*COMM Corporation (the “Registrant”). The Registration Statement registered for issuance, pursuant to the ACE*COMM Corporation Amended and Restated 2000 Stock Option Plan for Directors, 200,000 shares of common stock, $0.01 par value, of the Registrant.
     On September 22, 2008, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of July 11, 2008, between the Registrant, Ariston Global Holding LLC and Ariston Global Merger Sub, Inc. (“Merger Sub”), Merger Sub was merged with and into the Registrant, with the Registrant continuing as the surviving corporation (the “Merger”). As a result of the Merger, each share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Registrant was converted into the right to receive $0.545 in cash, without interest.
     The Registrant hereby removes from registration, by means of this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1, any and all securities registered under the Registration Statement that have not been issued prior to the Merger.
