SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT

UHF INCORPORATED
 
SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT (this Agreement"), dated as of August 3, 2011, between UHF Incorporated., a Michigan corporation (the "Company") with its principal offices c/o Eaton & Van Winkle LLP, 3 Park Avenue, New York, New York 10016, and each of the undersigned subscribers (each a “Subscriber,” and collectively, the “Subscribers”).  

Preliminary Statement

The Company proposes to reincorporate in Delaware (the “Reincorporation”) and sell to the Subscribers, and the Subscribers are willing to purchase from the Company, the aggregate number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock described below (the “Shares”), for a total purchase price of $50,000.00 (the “Purchase Price”).

      The sale of the Shares is subject to the Reincorporation, following which the Company’s authorized capital stock will consist of 1,000,000 shares of “blank check” preferred stock, $0.001 par value and 9,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value (“Common Stock”), of which approximately  5,000,000 shares of Common Stock will be outstanding prior to the issuance of the Shares. Notwithstanding that the Shares will not be issued until completion of the Reincorporation, the Purchase Price will be paid to the Company together with the delivery of this Subscription Agreement.

  As of the date hereof, the Company is a Michigan corporation having 50,000,000 shares of common stock outstanding.  The aggregate number of shares to be purchased by the Subscribers would be equivalent to 7,808,595 shares of the Company’s common stock as presently constituted.   The actual number of shares to be delivered to the Subscribers will be adjusted to reflect the Reincorporation.  Thus, assuming a 1 for 10 recapitalization, the Subscribers will receive an aggregate of 780,859 shares (the “Shares”) allocated amongst them as set forth on the signature pages hereto.

              The Company and the Subscribers are executing and delivering this Agreement in reliance upon an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) afforded by the provisions of Section 4(2), Section 4(6) and/or Regulation D ("Regulation D") as promulgated by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") under the Securities Act.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and other agreements contained in this Agreement the Company and the Subscribers hereby agree as follows:
 
 
 

 
 
1.           Subscription for Shares.

             The Subscribers hereby subscribe to purchase the Shares for the Purchase Price. The number of Shares to be purchased by each Subscriber and the price therefore are set opposite the name of such Subscriber on Schedule A hereto. The Subscribers have delivered their respective portions of the Purchase Price to the Company and upon completion of the Reincorporation, the Company shall deliver to each Subscriber, a certificate representing the number of Shares purchased by such Subscriber, registered in the name of such Subscriber or his designee. The sale of the Shares is subject to the completion of the Reincorporation and if the Reincorporation is not completed within one year of the date hereof the Purchase Price shall be returned to the Subscribers.

2.           Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Company. The Company represents and warrants to and agrees with Subscribers that, except as set forth in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, and all periodic reports filed with the SEC thereafter (hereinafter referred to collectively as the "SEC Reports"), including the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2011 (the "First Quarter 2011 Form 10-Q"), that the statements contained in this Section 2 are correct and complete as of the date of this Agreement and will be correct and complete as of the date of issuance of the Shares:

       (c) Enforceability. This Agreement, when duly executed and delivered on behalf of the Company, will be a valid and binding agreement of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors' rights generally and to general principles of equity regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a court of law or equity.

       (d) Consents. No consent, approval, authorization, filing with or notice to any person, entity or public authority, or order of any court, governmental agency or body or arbitrator having jurisdiction over the Company, or the Company's shareholders is required for the execution by the Company of this Agreement and compliance and performance by the Company of its obligations under this Agreement, including, without limitation, the issuance and sale of the Shares, other than filings required by Federal or state securities laws and the filings necessary to complete the Reincorporation, which filings have been or will be made by the Company on a timely basis.
 
       (e) The Shares.  The Shares upon issuance:

          (i) will be free and clear of any security interests, liens, claims or other encumbrances, subject to restrictions upon transfer under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws;

       (g) Not an Integrated Offering.  Neither the Company, nor any person acting on its behalf, has knowingly, either directly or indirectly, made any offers or sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security under circumstances that would cause the offer of the Shares pursuant to this Agreement to be integrated with prior offerings by the Company for purposes of the Securities Act or any applicable stockholder approval provisions, which would impair the exemptions relied upon in for the offer and sale of the Shares to the Subscribers or the Company’s ability to timely comply with its obligations hereunder. The Company will not knowingly conduct any offering other than the transactions contemplated hereby that will be integrated with the offer or issuance of the Shares, which would impair the exemptions relied upon for the offer and sale of the Shares to the Subscribers or the Company's ability to timely comply with its obligations hereunder.
 
               (h) No General Solicitation. Neither the Company, nor to its knowledge, any person acting on its or their behalf, has engaged in any form of general solicitation or general advertising (within the meaning of Regulation D under the Securities Act) in connection with the offer or sale of the Shares.

       (a) Due Execution and Delivery; Binding Nature.

       (b) No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation by the Subscriber of the transactions contemplated hereby do not and will not conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of any agreement, indenture or instrument or obligation to which Subscriber is a party or by which Subscriber’s properties or assets are bound, or result in a violation of any law, rule, or regulation, or any order, judgment or decree of any court or governmental agency applicable to Subscriber or Subscriber’s properties (except for such conflicts, defaults and violations as would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on Subscriber). Subscriber is not required to obtain any consent, authorization or order of, or make any filing or registration with, any court or governmental agency in order for Subscriber to execute, deliver or perform any of Subscriber’s obligations under this Agreement or to purchase the Shares, provided that for purposes of the representation made in this sentence, Subscriber is assuming and relying upon the accuracy of the relevant representations and agreements of the Company herein.
