NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

THREE MONTHS ENDED MAY 31, 2013

(Unaudited)

United States Basketball League, Inc. (“USBL”) was incorporated in Delaware on May 29, 1984, as a wholly owned subsidiary of Meisenheimer Capital, Inc. (“MCI”) for the purpose of developing and managing a professional basketball league, the United States Basketball League (the “League”). Since the inception of the League, USBL, has been primarily engaged in selling franchises and managing the League. From 1985 and up to the present time, USBL has sold a total of approximately forty active franchises (teams), a vast majority of which were terminated for non-payment of their respective franchise obligations. The 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, and 2013 seasons have been cancelled. At the present time, USBL does not have any definitive plans as to the scheduling of a new season. USBL is currently in the process of exploring certain strategic alternatives, including the possible sale of the League.

At May 31, 2013, USBL and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Meisenheimer Capital Real Estate Holdings, Inc. (“MCREH” and collectively with the USBL, the “Company”) had negative working capital of $2,363,259, a stockholders’ deficiency of $2,138,131, and accumulated losses of $4,822,114. These factors, as well as the Company’s reliance on related parties (see Notes 7 and 9), raise substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The Company is making efforts to raise equity capital, revitalize the league and market new franchises. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in accomplishing its objectives. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they may not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial statements reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation. Operating results for the three-month period ended May 31, 2013 may not necessarily be indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending February 28, 2014. The notes to the consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the notes to the consolidated financial statements contained in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended February 28, 2013.

Principles of consolidation - The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of USBL and MCREH. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Fair value disclosures – The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments, which consist of cash and cash equivalents, marketable equity securities, due from related parties, accounts payable and accrued expenses, credit card obligations, and due to related parties, approximate their fair value due to their short term nature or based upon values of comparable instruments.

Cash and cash equivalents - The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Marketable equity securities – Marketable equity securities are recorded at fair value with unrealized gains and losses included in income. The Company has classified its investment in marketable equity securities as trading securities. The change in net unrealized holding gain (loss) included in earnings for the three months ended May 31, 2013 and 2012 was $(2,059) and $10,377, respectively.

Depreciation expense - Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the building’s estimated useful life (30 years).

Revenue recognition - The Company generally uses the accrual method of accounting in these financial statements. However, due to the uncertainty of collecting royalty and franchise fees from the franchisees, USBL recorded these revenues upon receipt of cash consideration paid or the performance of related services by the franchisee. Franchise fees earned in nonmonetary transactions were recorded at the fair value of the franchise granted or the service received, based on which value is more readily determinable. Upon the granting of the franchise, the Company had performed essentially all material conditions related to the sale.

The Company generated advertising revenue from fees for arena signage, tickets, and program and yearbook advertising space. Advertising revenue was recognized over the period that the advertising space is made available to the user.

Fees charged to teams to allow them to relocate were recognized as revenue upon collection of the fee. Souvenir sales, which were generated on the Company’s web site, were recorded upon shipment of the order. Essentially all orders were paid by credit card.

Income taxes - Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance has been fully provided for the deferred tax asset (approximately $1,015,000 at February 28, 2013) attributable to the USBL net operating loss carryforward.

As of February 28, 2013, USBL had a net operating loss carryforward of approximately $2,900,000 available to offset future taxable income. The carryforward expires in varying amounts from 2019 to 2033. Current United States income tax laws limit the amount of loss available to offset against future taxable income when a substantial change in ownership occurs. Therefore, the amount available to offset future taxable income may be limited.

Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Advertising costs - Advertising costs are expensed as incurred.

Stock-based compensation – Stock-based compensation is accounted for at fair value in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation.” No stock options were granted during 2013 and 2012 and none are outstanding at May 31, 2013.

Earnings (loss) per share – ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share”, establishes standards for computing and presenting earnings (loss) per share (EPS). ASC 260 requires dual presentation of basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if stock options or convertible securities were exercised or converted into common stock. The Company did not include the 1,105,679 shares of convertible preferred stock in its calculation of diluted loss per share for the three months ended May 31, 2012 as the result would have been antidilutive.

Comprehensive income – Other comprehensive income (loss) refers to revenues, expenses, gains and losses that under generally accepted accounting principles are included in comprehensive income but are excluded from net income (loss) as these amounts are recorded directly as an adjustment to stockholders’ equity. Comprehensive income (loss) was equivalent to net income (loss) for all periods presented.

At February 28, 2013, marketable equity securities consisted of:

As discussed in Note 2, the Company has classified its investment in marketable equity securities as trading securities. All fair value measurements are based on Level 1 inputs (i.e., closing trading prices of respective marketable equity securities).

Gain (loss) on marketable equity securities consisted of:

Commencing March 2012, the Company began the process of selling its marketable equity securities pursuant to a plan to liquidate substantially all of such securities as market conditions allow.

Due from related parties consist of:

Property, net, consists of:

The property is a commercial building owned by MCREH located in Milford, Connecticut. From June 2008 to December 2010, MCREH had no tenants at the property.

In 2011, Spectrum Associates, Inc. (“Spectrum”), a corporation controlled by the two officers of USBL, entered into an informal agreement to rent available space from MCREH for the purpose of storing surplus material. Under this agreement, Spectrum paid MCREH a total of $12,000 rent for the year ended February 29, 2012.

On February 1, 2012, MCREH executed a Lease Agreement with an unrelated entity (“the Tenant”) to rent the property (on a Net Lease basis) for a term of 11 months from February 1, 2012 to December 31, 2012 at a monthly rent of $3,000. The Tenant has an option to renew the lease for two additional periods of one year each at monthly rents of $3,150 (for the year ended December 31, 2013), and $3,300 (for the year ended December 31, 2014).

USBL uses credit cards of related parties to pay for certain travel and promotion expenses. USBL has agreed to pay the credit card balances, including related interest. The credit card obligations bear interest at rates ranging up to 30% and are due in monthly installments of principal and interest.

Due to related parties consists of:

For the three months ended May 31, 2013 and 2012, interest due under the USBL loans was waived by the respective lenders.

At May 31, 2013 and February 28, 2013, accounts payable and accrued expenses included accrued interest payable on MCREH notes payable to related parties totaling $73,787 and $69,887, respectively.

OVERVIEW

It is anticipated that the Company will continue to rely on financial assistance from affiliates. The Meisenheimer family is fully committed to making the Company a profitable operation and also making the League a viable one. Given the current lack of capital, the Company has not been able to develop any new programs to revitalize the League, nor has it been able to hire additional sales and promotional personnel. As a result, the Company is currently dependent on the efforts of Daniel T. Meisenheimer, III and two other employees for all marketing efforts. Their efforts have not resulted in any substantial increase in the number of franchises. Also, since Mr. Meisenheimer’s stroke last year, he has been unable to devote any material amount of time to the affairs of the Company. The NBA has established a developmental basketball league known as the National Basketball Developmental League (“NBDL”). The Company believes that the establishment of this league, consisting of eight teams, will have no effect on the Company’s season, since the NBDL season as presently constituted runs from November through March. Further, nothing prohibits a NBDL player from playing in the USBL. Accordingly, and as of the present time, the Company does not perceive the NBDL as a competitor. However, with the establishment of the NBDL, it is unlikely that, at least for the present time, the Company can develop any meaningful relationship with the NBA.

THREE MONTHS ENDED MAY 31, 2013 AS COMPARED TO MAY 31, 2012

For the three months ended May 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company had no franchise fees or advertising revenues as a result of the cancellation of the 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013 seasons. Rental revenues increased $2,946 from $9,000 in 2012 to $11,946 in 2013 as a result of rental income received from an unrelated party commencing in February 2013.

Operating expenses decreased $14,371 from $46,330 for the three months ended May 31, 2012 to $31,959 for the three months ended May 31, 2013. The decrease in operating expenses was primarily due to the reduction of other expenses.

Net gain (loss) from marketable equity securities decreased $67,059 from ($64,820) in 2012 to $2,239 in 2013. The decrease was due to the sale by the Company of most of its marketable equity securities during the three months ended May 31, 2013, and lower trading prices of the remaining marketable equity securities of the Company.

Interest expense decreased to $5,720 in 2013, as compared to $7,573 in 2012.

Net loss for the three months ended May 31, 2013 was $23,494 as compared to net loss of $109,723 for the three months ended May 31, 2012. The change is due mainly to the $67,059 change in net gain (loss) from marketable equity securities (from ($64,820) in 2012 to $2,239 in 2013).

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company had cash and cash equivalents of $9,819 and a working capital deficit of $2,363,259 at May 31, 2013. The Company's statement of cash flows reflects cash used in operating activities of $31,452, which results primarily from the $23,494 net loss, and a decrease in marketable securities of $4,106 and a $3,789 decrease in credit card obligations. Net cash provided by financing activities was $29,629 in 2013 compared to $75,509 in 2012.

The Company expects it will continue to have to rely on affiliates for loans and revenues to assist it in meeting its current obligations. With respect to long term needs, the Company recognizes that in order for the USBL and Leauge to be successful, USBL has to develop a meaningful sales and promotional program. This will require an investment of additional capital. Given the Company's current financial condition, the ability of the Company’s ability to raise additional capital other than from affiliates is questionable. At the current time the Company has no definitive plan as to how to raise additional capital and schedule a 2014 season.
