Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

See item 5.02 below for a description of the employment arrangement the registrant has entered into with Jay Larkin.

Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

(c) On September 21, 2007, Jay Larkin became the President and Chief Operating Officer of International Fight League, Inc. (the “Company”). Gareb Shamus, Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer, will retain these titles, but will no longer serve as President of the Company. Mr. Larkin will report directly to Mr. Shamus and will oversee all the day-to-day operational details of the Company.

Larkin spent over 20 years at media giant Showtime, rising to become one of the most powerful deal makers in sports and entertainment during his storied career. He began at Showtime in 1984, and helped create countless entertainment specials involving stars ranging from Dave Chappelle, Britney Spears, The Spice Girls and Jay-Z to legends like Frank Sinatra, Paul McCartney and The Rolling Stones among others for the network and pay per view. During that time, Mr. Larkin also oversaw the channel’s entrance into boxing, beginning in 1986 with Marvelous Marvin Hagler’s middleweight title defense against John Mugabi, thus creating the powerhouse Showtime Championship Boxing. He negotiated the deals and was the executive producer of some of boxing’s most legendary matchups of the last quarter century, including numerous Mike Tyson, Evander Holyfield and Julio Cesar Chavez fights. Mr. Larkin also was one of the key negotiators for what was the biggest money fight in history, the 2002 heavyweight championship bout between Lennox Lewis and Tyson that happened because of a landmark deal between Showtime (Tyson’s network) and rival HBO (Lewis’ network).

Just before leaving Showtime, Mr. Larkin put together Ricky Hatton vs. Kostya Tszyu and Joe Calzaghe vs. Jeff Lacy, two career-changing events for both Hatton and Calzaghe. Just prior to joining the IFL, he completed negotiations for the upcoming blockbuster match of Calzaghe and Mikkel Kessler for HBO and Sports Network. Mr. Larkin’s career also includes an extensive background in live theater. Mr. Larkin attended the Boston Conservatory of Music; the UCLA School of Theater, Film and Television, and received a degree in theater and directing from C.W. Post College of Long Island University. He has been nominated for a primetime Emmy Award, a Tony Award and is a recipient of the prestigious boxing industry Taub Award for excellence in broadcasting journalism from the Boxing Writers Association of America.

Pursuant to the terms of his employment with the Company, Mr. Larkin will paid an annual base salary of $275,000 during his first six months of employment, then his annual salary will increase to $325,000. Mr. Larkin will be eligible to receive an annual bonus award based upon, and subject to, the achievement of target annual performance objectives established by the Company’s Board of Directors or its Compensation Committee after consultation with him. As part of his employment agreement, Mr. Larkin will be awarded options to purchase 500,000 shares of our common stock under the Company’s 2006 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The options will vest as to 1/12 of the options every three months, beginning December 21, 2007, and will expire on September 21, 2017. In addition, Mr. Larkin is entitled to an additional award of 250,000 stock options in January 2008. These options will have an exercise price equal to the market value of our common stock on the date of grant, will vest as to 1/12 upon award, 1/12 on March 21, 2008 and 1/12 every three months thereafter, and will have an expiration date of September 21, 2017. If the exercise price of the stock option grant for the January 2008 options are greater than the exercise price of the initial option grant Mr. Larkin will receive, then Mr. Larkin shall be entitled to an award of restricted stock for a number of shares (not to exceed 250,000 shares) equal to (i) the product of (x) the amount the exercise price of the January 2008 option grant exceeds the exercise price of his original option grant, multiplied by (y) 250,000, divided by (ii) the exercise price of the January 2008 options. This award of restricted stock

will vest as to 1/12 upon award, 1/12 on March 21, 2008 and 1/12 every three months thereafter. The foregoing equity awards will fully vest upon a “Change of Control Event” (as defined in the Plan).

Mr. Larkin is an employee-at-will, and either Mr. Larkin or the Company can terminate his employment at any time, with or without “Cause” or “Good Reason” and with or without notice.  If Mr. Larkin’s employment is terminated for “Cause” or Mr. Larkin resigns without “Good Reason,” Mr. Larkin will not receive the post-termination payments described below.  “Cause” means (a) gross negligence, or willful or wanton breach, by Mr. Larkin of any of his material duties to the Company, (b) gross malfeasance by Mr. Larkin in the performance of his material duties to IFL, (c) material violation by Mr. Larkin of a material Company policy, (d) conduct by Mr. Larkin constituting fraud or dishonesty, or (e) Mr. Larkin is convicted of a felony. “Good Reason” shall mean a material breach of this agreement by the Company, including the failure to award to Mr. Larkin the stock options and restricted stock in January 2008 as set forth above.

If Mr. Larkin is terminated without Cause, or Mr. Larkin terminates his employment for Good Reason, the Company will continue to pay Mr. Larkin his then rate of base salary for a period of three (3) months, his stock options, restricted stock and any other equity awards he may have received will immediately vest, and he will have one year to exercise any unexercised stock options, and he will be entitled to up to six months of paid health insurance coverage.

Jay Larkin

Dear Jay:

It is with a great deal of pleasure that I am extending to you an offer to join the International Fight League, Inc. (“IFL” or the “Company”) as President and Chief Operating Officer, pursuant to the terms of this letter.  Your employment is effective as of September 21, 2007 and you will report directly to the Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. In your position, you will have responsibility and decision making authority for the day-to-day operations of the Company’s business, including event staging and television and media production.

Your salary will initially be at the annual rate of $275,000 and we will pay you on a semi-monthly basis in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll procedures. On the six month anniversary of your start date, your annual salary will increase to $325,000. You will be eligible to receive an annual bonus award based upon, and subject to, the achievement of target annual performance objectives established by the Board or its Compensation Committee after consultation with you.

You will become eligible on your first day of employment to participate in the Company’s employee benefit plans, including health care, life insurance and disability benefits, pursuant to the terms of the relevant employee benefit plans.  You will be entitled to vacation and sick days pursuant to Company policy, which initially allows for 2 weeks of paid vacation and five (5) personal days per year. You will receive customary expense reimbursement pursuant to the Company’s regular executive officer expense reimbursement policies, and when traveling on Company related business, you will be entitled to one class upgrade from coach for air travel, with an airline of your selection, and hotel accommodations at a hotel of your choice (other than at IFL events where IFL has a block of rooms).

You will be granted stock options to purchase 500,000 shares of IFL common stock under the Company’s 2006 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) (the “Initial Grant”).  In addition, you will be eligible for an additional grant under the Plan of stock options for 250,000 shares of common stock in January 2008 (the “Subsequent Grant”). The Initial Grant and the Subsequent Grant will expire ten years after the date of the Initial Grant, and each will have an exercise price equal to the Fair Market Value (as defined in the Plan) on the date of its grant. If the exercise price of the Subsequent Grant is greater than the exercise price of the Initial Grant, then you will be entitled to receive an award of restricted stock under the Plan for a number of shares of IFL common stock (not to exceed 250,000 shares) equal to (i) the product of (x) the amount by which the exercise price of the Subsequent Grant exceeds the exercise price of the Initial Grant, multiplied by (y) 250,000, divided by (ii) the exercise price of the Subsequent Grant. The Subsequent Grant, and any restricted stock award required by the foregoing sentence, will be subject to approval by the Company’s Board of Directors or a committee of the Board. All of the options and the restricted stock granted under this paragraph will vest as to 1/12 of the shares covered thereby after completion of your first three months of employment with the Company and as to 1/12 of the shares covered thereby after the completion of each three-month period of employment thereafter; provided that you are in the employ of the Company on each such vesting date (the first 1/12 of the shares covered by the Subsequent Grant and any restricted stock awarded under this paragraph will vest immediately upon their grant). In addition, the foregoing equity awards will fully vest upon a “Change of Control Event” (as defined in the Plan). These grants will be evidenced by and be subject to separate grant agreements the Company will deliver to you, and which will become effective upon the Company’s receipt of a counter-signed copy from you. As permitted by the Plan, you may elect to have the Company withhold shares of restricted stock as the shares vest in order to pay withholding taxes which may be due upon vesting.

You will be an employee-at-will, which means that either IFL or you may terminate your employment at any time, with or without “Cause” or “Good Reason” and with or without notice.  If your employment is terminated for

“Cause” or you resign without “Good Reason,” you will not receive the post-termination payments described below.  “Cause” shall mean (a) gross negligence, or willful or wanton breach, by you of any of your material duties to IFL, (b) gross malfeasance by you in the performance of your material duties to IFL, (c) material violation by you of a material Company policy, (d) conduct by you constituting fraud or dishonesty, or (e) you are convicted of a felony. “Good Reason” shall mean a material breach of this agreement by IFL, including the failure to award you the Subsequent Grant and the restricted stock award in January 2008. If you believe that the Company has breached this agreement and has thereby given you Good Reason to terminate you employment hereunder, which would entitle you the severance benefits described below, you must notify the Company of your entitlement to terminate your employment with the Company for Good Reason within 90 days of the day on which you believe the Company has so breached this agreement, and the Company will then have 60 days for its receipt of your notice to cure such breach to your reasonable satisfaction.

If your employment with the Company is terminated by the Company without Cause, or if you terminate your employment with the Company for Good Reason, the Company will continue to pay you your then-rate of base salary for a period of three (3) months, at the same time and in the same amounts as if your employment had not terminated..  Any such payments shall be contingent upon your signing a general release in substantially the form attached hereto as Annex A and shall be less applicable federal, state, and local taxes and other appropriate payroll deductions.  If your employment with the Company terminates, you will be entitled to any rights guaranteed by the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended (“COBRA”).  If your employment with the Company is terminated by the Company without Cause or you terminate your employment for Good Reason, and you elect to receive health insurance coverage in accordance with COBRA, (a) IFL will place you on administrative leave as an inactive employee during your three month severance period, during which IFL will continue to pay on your behalf any required premiums for such health insurance coverage, and then (b) for any period thereafter in which you are eligible for COBRA benefits, IFL will pay any required premiums for a three-month period following the date your three-month administrative leave terminates.  Any such premium payments will also be contingent upon your signing a general release in a form acceptable to the Company in substantially the form of Annex A. In addition, if your employment is terminated by the Company without Cause or you terminate your employment with the Company for Good Reason, your stock options, restricted stock and any other equity awards you may have received will immediately vest, and you will have one year to exercise any unexercised stock options. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this paragraph, should either or both of the above severance benefits payable to you at a time when (i) any of the Company’s common stock is publicly traded on an established securities market or otherwise, and (ii) you are a “specified employee” of the Company within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation” under Section 409A of the Code (“Section 409A”), its or their payment shall be suspended for a period of six full calendar months, commencing with the first calendar month next following the date of termination of your employment with the Company, and such suspended payment amount will be paid to you in a lump sum payment on the first day following the end of such required payment suspension period. However, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the immediately preceding sentence, should either or both of such payments come within the definition of “involuntary severance” under Section 409A, an amount up to the lesser of (a) 200% of your annual compensation from the Company for the calendar year preceding the calendar year in which the termination of your employment with the Company occurs, or (b) 200% of the limitation under Section 401(a)(17) of the Code on tax-qualified retirement plan compensation in effect for the calendar year in which the termination of your employment with the Company occurs, shall be excluded from “deferred compensation” as permitted under Section 409A and shall not be subject to the above 6-month payment suspension requirement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this letter, the terms hereof will in all cases be interpreted consistent with the intention of both the parties hereto that such terms comply with all applicable requirements of both Section 409A and further, that neither the Company nor you, individually or in combination, will pay or accelerate any payment hereunder except in compliance with Section 409A.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE                        

INTERNATIONAL FIGHT LEAGUE NAMES JAY LARKIN PRESIDENT AND CHIEF
OPERATING OFFICER

Former Showtime Executive Joins the World’s Number One Team-based Mixed Martial
Arts League

NEW YORK, September 21, 2007 – The International Fight League (OTC.BB: IFLI), the world’s number one team-based professional mixed martial arts league, today announced that longtime television executive, event producer and boxing industry icon Jay Larkin has been named to the newly-created position of President and Chief Operating Officer. Larkin will report directly to IFL CEO Gareb Shamus and will oversee all the day-to-day operational details of the IFL.

“Jay has been very helpful advising us in our first year and we are elated that he will be joining us in a larger full-time role as we enter our second full season,” said Gareb Shamus, IFL co-founder and CEO. “Jay’s experience in the television, live event promotion, international television, entertainment industry and corporate business worlds will be a huge plus not only to the IFL, but to the sport of Mixed Martial Arts both now and into the future.”

“I am very pleased to be able to join the IFL,” Larkin said. “Mixed Martial Arts is quickly becoming a mainstream sport with virtually limitless growth potential as the fan demographic continues to expand. The IFL is perfectly positioned to take MMA to the next level and capitalize on the opportunities.”

Larkin spent over 20 years at media giant Showtime, rising to become one of the most powerful deal makers in sports and entertainment during his storied career. He began at Showtime in 1984, and helped create countless entertainment specials involving stars ranging from Dave Chappelle, Britney Spears, The Spice Girls and Jay-Z to legends like Frank Sinatra, Paul McCartney and The Rolling Stones among others for the network and pay per view.

During that time, the Brooklyn, N.Y., native also oversaw the channel’s entrance into boxing, beginning in 1986 with Marvelous Marvin Hagler’s middleweight title defense against John Mugabi, thus creating the powerhouse Showtime Championship Boxing. He negotiated the deals and was the executive producer of some of boxing’s most legendary matchups of the last quarter century, including numerous Mike Tyson, Evander Holyfield and Julio Cesar Chavez fights. Larkin also was one of the key negotiators for what was the biggest money fight in history, the 2002 heavyweight championship bout between Lennox Lewis and Tyson that happened because of a landmark deal between Showtime (Tyson’s network) and rival HBO (Lewis’ network).

Just before leaving Showtime, Larkin put together Ricky Hatton vs. Kostya Tszyu and Joe Calzaghe vs. Jeff Lacy, two career-changing events for both Hatton and Calzaghe. Just prior to joining the IFL, he completed negotiations for the upcoming blockbuster match of Calzaghe and Mikkel Kessler for HBO and Sports Network.
