Item 5.02

Departure of Directors or Principal Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers

At a special meeting of the board of directors of American Basketball Association, Inc. (the “Company”) held on January 31, 2007, a majority of the Company’s board of directors voted to remove Joseph Newman as its Chief Executive Officer.

On the same date, Joseph Newman delivered a notice and shareholder resolution (the “Resolution”) notifying Messrs. Thomas E. Doyle, John Salley and David Howitt that Mr. Newman and certain other shareholders of the Company holding a majority of the outstanding shares of the common stock of the Company were proposing to take action to remove them as directors of the Company and elect Mr. Paul Riley as a director of the Company.

As of the date hereof, a fully executed version of the Resolution attempting to remove Messrs. Doyle, Salley and Howitt has not been provided to the aforementioned directors. Further, the Company notes that such shareholder actions may only properly be effected after compliance with applicable federal securities laws mandating the filing and mailing of an information statement to the Company’s shareholders 20 days in advance of taking such action.

In connection with the removal of Mr. Newman as chief executive officer, the board of directors intends to establish a special committee to review all agreements executed by Mr. Newman on behalf of the Company to ensure that such agreements were properly authorized by the Company’s board of directors.
