DEREGISTRATION OF SHARES
     Effective immediately upon the filing of this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to Form S-8 Registration Statement (Registration No. 333-70354) (the “Registration Statement”), Action Performance Companies, Inc. (the “Registrant”) hereby deregisters 20,000 shares previously registered for sale under a Warrant Agreement to Purchase Common Stock. The deregistered shares represent shares subject to the Warrant Agreement to Purchase Common Stock that were canceled or terminated without having been issued. On December 1, 2005, the Registrant held a special meeting of shareholders at which Registrant shareowners approved and adopted the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of August 29, 2005, among SMISC, LLC, Motorsports Authentics, Inc. and the Registrant (the “Merger”), and the transactions contemplated thereby. The Merger became effective following the filing of a Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Arizona on December 9, 2005 (the “Effective Time”).
     As a result of the Merger, at the Effective Time, all outstanding shares of common stock of the Registrant were cancelled and such shares, together with certain outstanding options and warrants, were converted into the right to receive the merger consideration in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Agreement and Plan of Merger. The Registrant has terminated all offerings of common stock pursuant to its existing registration statements, including the Registration Statement. In accordance with an undertaking made by the Registrant in the Registration Statement to remove from registration, by means of a post-effective amendment, any shares of the Registrant’s common stock which remain unsold at the termination of the offering, the Registrant hereby removes from registration all shares of common stock registered under the Registration Statement which remained unsold as of the Effective Time.
