  5. Seller’s Representations and Warranties.

(a)    Seller’s Warranties Regarding UPNT. The Seller warrants and represent to each Purchaser that:

 

  (i) Organization and Standing. UPNT is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Nevada and has full power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted. UPNT is qualified to do business as a foreign corporation in every other state in which it operates to the extent required by the laws of such states. The copies of the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws (each as amended through and including the Closing) of UPNT previously delivered to the Purchasers are true and complete as of the date hereof.

 

  (ii) Capitalization. UPNT's entire authorized capital stock consists of 100,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share, the rights and preferences for which have not yet been established but which the Board has the power and authority to designate under Nevada law. As of the date hereof and at the Closing, the total issued and outstanding capital stock of UPNT shall consist of 13,892,597 shares of Common Stock, the same number of shares that have been issued and outstanding in UPNT since February 2014. As of the date hereof and at the Closing, there will be no other voting or equity securities of UPNT issued and outstanding, and no outstanding subscriptions, warrants, calls, options, rights, commitments or agreements by which UPNT is bound, the only exception being two Notes (the 2 Notes”) accruing interest at a rate of 8% per annum, one of which is the Note being sold to the Purchasers pursuant to this Agreement, the other being a note (the “Cowle Note”), in the principal amount of $60,000 as of both December 31, 2014 and March 31, 2015 (plus $7,967 of accrued and unpaid interest as of December 31, 2014 and a total of $9,151 of accrued and unpaid interest as of March 31, 2015), both Notes being reflected in the line items “Due to Related Party” and “Note Payable” in UPNT’s audited balance sheet in its audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2014 included in UPNT’S 2014 10-K.

 

  (iii) Issuance of Shares. All outstanding shares of Common Stock have been duly authorized and validly issued, are fully paid and non-assessable, and were not issued in violation of any Applicable Law and are not subject to any rescission or similar rights.

 

  (iv) Corporate Records. All of UPNT’s books and records, including, without limitation, its books of account, corporate records, minute book, stock certificate books and other records are up-to-date, complete and reflect accurately and fairly the conduct of its business in all material respects since its date of incorporation.

 

  (v) Liabilities. UPNT will have no liabilities at Closing other than the principal amount and accrued but unpaid interest on the 2 Notes, as set forth in Section 5(a)(ii) above. The 2 Notes, only one of which is subject hereof, will be duly sold and assigned at or prior to Closing, leaving such purchasers of the 2 Notes as the only creditors of the Company.
     
  (vi) Agreements. At the Closing, UPNT will not be bound by any contract, agreement, lease, commitment, guarantee or arrangement of any kind, except as provided herein. It will, however, continue to maintain its marketing and distribution contracts intact in regards to its continued offer and sale of Gray-to-Great and Mitigators, including any other or additional products that UPNT may be marketing by the time of closing. These marketing/distribution agreements shall survive the Closing.

 

  (vii) Taxes. UPNT has filed all Tax Returns that it is required to file with all governmental agencies, wherever situate, and has paid or accrued for payment all Taxes as shown on such Returns, except for Taxes being contested in good faith. There is no material claim for Taxes that is a Lien against the property of UPNT other than Liens for Taxes not yet due and payable.

 

  (viii) Pending Actions. There are no legal actions, lawsuits, proceedings or investigations, either administrative or judicial, pending or threatened, against or affecting UPNT or against UPNT’s current or former Officers or Directors that arose out of their operation of UPNT. UPNT is not subject to any order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award of any court, arbitrator or administrative, governmental or regulatory authority or body.

 

  (ix) No Violation of Agreements. Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the carrying out of its purposes by the Seller nor the execution and delivery and the carrying out of the agreements and performance of the obligations by UPNT as contemplated herein, will result in the breach of any of the terms or conditions of, or constitute a default under or violate, UPNT’s Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws (each as amended through the Closing) or any agreement, lease, mortgage, bond, indenture, license or other document or undertaking, oral or written, to which UPNT is a party or is bound or may be affected, nor will such execution, delivery and carrying out violate any order, writ, injunction, decree, law, rule or regulation of any court, regulatory agency or other governmental body.

 

  (x) Trading Status. UPNT’s common stock is listed for quotation on the OTCQB with OTC Markets Group, Inc., under the symbol “UPNT.” To the best of Seller’s knowledge, UPNT has not been threatened and is not subject to removal of its common stock from the OTCQB nor of any actions by the Seller or any other person that could result in the Common Stock no longer being eligible to be quoted on the OTCQB.

 

  (xi) SEC Status. The common stock of UPNT is registered pursuant to Section 12(g) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). During the prior 2 years, UPNT has filed all reports on a timely basis required by the applicable regulations of the SEC and is current in its SEC reporting requirements. All of the filings by UPNT under the Exchanges Act within the past two years were true, correct and complete in all material respects when filed to the best knowledge, information and belief of the Seller, were not misleading, and did not omit to state any material fact which was necessary to make the statements contained in such public filings not misleading in any material respect. While UPNT’s EDGAR filings check the “non-shell” box on EDGAR filing cover or caption sheets and while Seller has a good faith belief that UPNT has had continuous operations and non-nominal assets other than cash, Seller, currently an affiliate and “control person” of the Company, makes no warranty or guaranty that the Commission might not claim UPNT to be a “Shell Company” (as defined in Rule 405 of the Commission’s General Rules and Regulations.

 

  (xii) Compliance with Laws. UPNT’s operations have been conducted in all material respects in accordance with all applicable statutes, laws, rules and regulations. UPNT is not in violation of any Applicable Law.

 

  (xiii) Absence of Certain Changes or Events. Since December 31, 2014 and except as provided in the 2014 10-K:

 

(A) there has not been (i) any change that has had or would have a Material Adverse Effect on the business, operations, properties, assets, or condition of UPNT or (ii) any damage, destruction, or loss to UPNT (whether or not covered by insurance) materially and adversely affecting the business, operations, properties, assets, or condition of UPNT;

 

(B) UPNT has not (i) declared or made, or agreed to declare or make, any payment of dividends or distributions of any assets of any kind whatsoever to stockholders or purchased or redeemed, or agreed to purchase or redeem, any outstanding capital stock; (ii) waived any rights of value which in the aggregate are extraordinary or material considering the business of UPNT; or (iii) made any material change in its method of management, operation, or accounting;

 

(C) UPNT has not become subject to any law or regulation which has had or would in the future be substantially likely to have a Material Adverse Effect on UPNT.

 

(3)
 

 

 

  (xiv) Consultants, Finders or Agents. See Section 7 below.

 

  (xv) No Insurance. UPNT maintains no insurance, nor does it maintain any insurance in connection with its past marketing of X-Mint, Tonify, Gray-to-Great or Mitigators on the Internet through its website, www.upliftnutritioninc.com. UPNT maintains no such insurance because UPNT is informed that the companies that manufacture these products carry substantial products liability and other insurance and it is UPNT’s understanding that no such insurance is necessary or required for distributors of such products. Recently UPNT has discontinued offering X-Mint and Tonify on its website and has concentrated on sales of its other products, all as disclosed in the 2014 10-K.

 

  (xvi) No Payments to Seller. Seller has not received, directly and/or indirectly, and Seller has no knowledge of any direct and/or indirect payment received from UPNT and/or any Affiliate (as defined in the Securities Act), employee, consultant, directors, officers, related party of UPNT and/or any affiliate of any such parties or any other person, any funds, securities and/or other items of value whether of UPNT or any third party related to, in connection with or arising out of the Note and/or representing repayment of any principal, payment or of any interest on the Note, and/or as an inducement to lend money to UPNT or otherwise; and all of the $101,312 ($60,000 + $41,312) aggregate principal amount of the 2 Notes as of December 31, 2014 (as increased by approximately $6,000 in principal loaned to the Company by HD Williams and/or his alter ego, Blue Cap, between December 31, 2014 and the Closing),represents actual cash loaned to the Company for working capital purposes of the Company and has not directly and/or indirectly been repaid.

 

  (xvii) Certain Rights. Purchasers shall have no obligation to pay any finder’s fees, agent fees or commissions in connection with the purchase and sale of the Note herein. See Section 7 below.

 

  (xviii) DTC Eligible. The shares of Common Stock are DTC eligible and DTC has not placed a freeze, chill and/or lock-down on the shares of Common Stock; and the Seller has no reason to believe that DTC has any grounds and/or intends to take any such action in the future to effectuate a freeze, chill, lockdown or to make the shares of Common Stock not DTC eligible.

 

  (xix) No Warranties, by Seller, as to UPNT’s Ability to Pay Off Note in Cash After Closing. Concurrent with this transaction, certain UPNT shareholders, including Seller, are selling over 50% of the issued and outstanding shares of UPNT to certain purchasers. Accordingly, Seller will no longer be in control of the Company after the Closing. As a result, Seller, who will not be in control of the Company after Closing, can make no representation or warranty to Purchasers, directly or indirectly, as to the future ability of UPNT to pay back the Note in cash if that is what any Purchaser seeks in the future. Purchasers will be required to look to new management in that regard and not any warranty or representation of Seller.

 

  (xx) No Bad Actor. None of the Seller, any of its predecessors, affiliates, or any director, executive officer, other officer of Seller or any beneficial owner (as that term is defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) of 20% or more of Seller’s outstanding voting equity securities, calculated on the basis of voting power, nor any promoter (as that term is defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) connected with Seller in any capacity as of the date hereof (each, a “Seller Covered Person” and, together, “Seller Covered Persons”) is subject to any of the “Bad Actor” disqualifications described in Rule 506(d)(1)(i) to (viii) under the Securities Act (a “Disqualification Event”). The Seller has exercised reasonable care to determine (A) the identity of each person that is a Seller Covered Person; and (B) whether any Seller Covered Person is subject to a Disqualification Event. The Seller has complied, to the extent applicable, with its disclosure obligations under Rule 506(e) of the Securities Act, and has furnished to the Buyer a copy of any disclosures provided thereunder.

 

(b)   Seller’s Warranties Regarding the Note and the Conversion Shares. Seller warrants and represents to the Purchasers as follows:

 

  (i) Title to Note. The Seller is the sole and exclusive beneficial and record owner of the Note, free and clear of all Liens (as defined above), encumbrances, and rights of first refusal, pre-emptive and similar rights. By the transfer of the Note hereby, each Purchaser will acquire sole and exclusive good and marketable title to his, her or its portion of the Note hereby conveyed to him or her, free and clear of all Liens, including but not limited to, pre-emptive rights, rights of first refusal and/or similar rights, except for restrictions imposed by applicable federal and state securities laws.
     
  (ii) No Consent. No consent, waiver, approval, order or authorization of, or registration, declaration or filing with, any court, administrative agency or commission or other non-U.S., U.S., state, county, local or other foreign governmental authority, instrumentality, agency or commission or any third party is required by or with respect to Seller in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, except for the filing of a report with the SEC on Form 8-K reporting a change in control and a Rule 14f-1 Information Statement, both of which UPNT intends to file in connection with a separate stock sale transaction. In addition, those directors and officers or other insiders or “affiliates” who will no longer have such status as a result of this transaction, shall file Final Form 4’s on Edgar within 2 days of the Closing.

 

 

  (iii) Validity of Agreement. This Agreement has been duly executed by Seller and constitutes Seller’s valid and binding obligation, except to the extent limited by applicable bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, moratorium or other laws relating to or effecting generally the enforcement of creditors’ rights. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the carrying out of its purposes will not result in the breach of any of the terms or conditions of, or constitute a default under or violate, any agreement, lease, mortgage, bond, indenture, license or other document or undertaking, oral or written, to which any Seller is a party or by which any Seller is bound or may be affected, nor will such execution, delivery and carrying out violate any order, writ, injunction, decree, law, rule or regulation of any court, regulatory agency or other governmental body.

 

  (iv) Conversion Shares. The Conversion Shares when issued to each Purchaser shall be duly and validly authorized, fully paid and non-assessable and shall vest in each Purchaser absolute and 100% ownership of each such Purchaser's Conversion Shares free and clear of all Liens and other clouds on title and not subject to any right of first refusal, pre-emptive rights, rescission rights and/or other similar rights.

 

(4)
 

 

 

  6. Purchasers’ Warranties. Each Purchaser represents and warrants to Seller, for each such Purchaser (and not for or about any other Purchaser) that:

 

(a)                Own Account; Not for Distribution. Purchaser is acquiring its portion of the Note and the Conversion Shares set forth on Annex I for his or her own account, for investment and not with a view to the sale or distribution of all or any part of the Note. Upon Closing, no one other than each Purchaser will have any beneficial interest in the Note, or portions thereof, or the Conversion Shares purchased by each Purchaser.

 

(b)               Securities Not Registered. Purchasers understand that because neither the Note nor the Conversion Shares have been registered under the Securities Act, each Purchaser must continue to bear the economic risk of the investment for an indefinite time, and the Note or portions thereof and such Purchaser’s Conversion cannot be sold unless they are subsequently registered or an exemption from registration is available.

 

(c)                Legend. In addition to legends reflecting the items set forth in the Irrevocable Proxy and Sections 3(ii)(a) and (b) of this Agreement (the “Other Legends”), each Purchaser also consents to the placing of a standard Securities Act restrictive legend (a “1933 Act Legend,” and together with the Other Legends, collectively, the “Legends”) on all Conversion Shares. As each Purchaser hereby acknowledges and understands that none of the Conversion Shares have been registered under the Securities Act, and as each Purchaser has entered into this Agreement and an Irrevocable Proxy, each Purchaser hereby consents to the placing of a stop transfer order on the books and records of UPNT and with the Company’s transfer agent against the Conversion Shares reflecting the substance of the Legends, which Legends and stop transfer orders against the Conversion Shares, shall remain in place and be effective with regard to the 1933 Act Legend and stop transfer order reflecting such 1933 Act Legend until the Conversion Shares may be legally resold or distributed, and with regard to the Other Legends and stop transfer orders reflecting the substance of the Other Legends, such Other Legends and related stock transfer orders shall remain in place and effective until the time set forth in the Irrevocable Proxies, which removal of all the Legends and stop transfer orders shall require a written legal opinion addressed to the Purchaser, the Company and the Company’s transfer agent from a legal counsel hired and paid for by each Purchaser (which legal counsel and opinion must be reasonably acceptable to the Company) opining that all such Legends and stop transfer orders may be removed and expressly indicating the reasons therefore, citing specific documents and applicable laws, rules and regulations.

 

(d)               Material Information. Purchasers hereby represent and warrant that he, she or it has been furnished with all information which they deemed necessary to evaluate the merits and risks of the purchase of the Note and the Conversion Shares, or any portion thereof, and that he, she or it has had the opportunity to ask questions and receive answers concerning the Note, the Conversion Shares and UPNT from the officers and directors of UPNT, and to obtain any additional information concerning the Note or UPNT necessary to verify the accuracy of the information furnished or made available in connection herewith. Each Purchaser is an “accredited investor” as that term is defined in Rule 405 of the General Rules and Regulations of the Commission and as may be further defined in all relevant state and federal securities laws, including the amendments thereto in the Frank-Dodd Financial Reform Act of 2010, which excludes the equity in one’s personal residence in the calculation of net worth for “accredited investor” purposes. Each Purchaser has also consulted with counsel in deciding to enter into this transaction and each Purchaser warrants and represents that all questions of such counsel have been answered to counsel’s satisfaction.

 

(e)                Sophistication. Each Purchaser has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters so as to be capable of utilizing said information to evaluate the risks of the prospective investment and to make an informed investment decision. Purchasers are each able to bear the economic risk of his or her investment in the Note or any portion thereof and the Conversion Shares.

 

(f)                No Distribution. Purchasers agree that they will not sell or otherwise distribute all or any part of the Note or any Conversion Shares until (1) there is an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws covering any such transaction involving the Note, and the Conversion Shares or (2) UPNT receives an opinion of legal counsel stating that such transaction is exempt from registration.

 

(g)            Validity of Agreement. This Agreement has been duly executed by each Purchaser and constitutes his, her or its valid and binding obligation, except to the extent limited by applicable bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, moratorium or other laws relating to or effecting generally the enforcement of creditors’ rights. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the carrying out of its purposes will not result in the breach of any of the terms or conditions of, or constitute a default under or violate, any agreement, lease, mortgage, bond, indenture, license or other material document or undertaking, oral or written, to which each Purchaser is a party or is bound or may be affected, nor will such execution, delivery and carrying out violate any order, writ, injunction, decree, law, rule or regulation of any court, regulatory agency or other governmental body.

 

(h)            Reverse Stock Split. After the 14f-1 Information Statement mentioned above is effective, the newly appointed Board of Directors agree to authorize a reverse split of UPNT’s shares on the basis of a 1-for-10 shares and also, if they so desire, change the name of UPNT to a name of their choosing. This will require the filing a 14C Information Statement on EDGAR and mailing the same out to the shareholders of UPNT. It will also require the written consents of a majority of the shareholders to accomplish this corporate action under Nevada law given that Nevada law requires a Certificate of Amendment to Articles to effectuate a reverse split that isn’t reducing the authorized shares. Such reverse split shall automatically reverse the Conversion Shares on a 1 for 10 basis.

 

(i)              Knowledge. Each Purchaser has reviewed a copy of, among other relevant documents, the Note and the Related Documents, the Irrevocable Proxy and Lock-Up as well as a copy of Stock Purchase Agreement between the Company and MCB Network Corp. (the “SPA”) and understands all of the terms and conditions of each.

 

(5)
 

 

 

  7. Third Party Fee. The persons identified as Sellers under the separate Stock Purchase Agreement referenced herein will pay a fee to one or more persons (the “3rd Parties”), in connection with that agreement (the “3rd Party Fee”), and, therefore, no such fee is or will be due and owing under this Agreement and in no event shall any Purchaser be required to pay a finder’s, agent’s or consulting fee or commission in connection with this Agreement. Each Purchaser hereby acknowledges, understands and agrees that the 3rd Party Fee payable to the 3rd Parties is in the aggregate (i) $30,000 in cash, and (ii) the right to purchase a $1,403.66 portion of the Cowle Note which $1,403.66 portion of the Cowle Note shall be convertible into 1,300,000 pre-split restricted shares of Common Stock. See the SPA.

 

8. Parties’ Covenants.

 

  (a) Announcement. Prior to the Closing, no party hereto nor UPNT shall issue any press release or otherwise make any public statement with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby without the prior consent of the other parties (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), except as may be required by applicable law or securities regulation. The parties will, to the extent practicable, consult with each other before issuing, and provide each other the opportunity to review and comment upon, any such press release or other public statements with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby whether or not required by Applicable Law.

 

  (b) Access to Information; Inspection by each Purchaser.

Seller will cause UPNT’s managerial employees and regular independent accountants to be available upon reasonable advance notice to answer questions of the Purchasers concerning the Seller, the Note and/or any other securities of UPNT, and the business and affairs of UPNT. The Purchasers will treat and hold as confidential any information it receives from UPNT in the course of the reviews contemplated by this Section 8(b). No examination by the Purchasers will, however, constitute a waiver or relinquishment by the Purchasers of his, hers or their rights to rely on the Seller’s covenants, representations and warranties made herein or pursuant hereto.

13. Provisions Concerning Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent shall perform her obligations hereunder subject to the following provisions.

 

(a)                Scope of Duties. The duties of the Escrow Agent shall be entirely administrative in nature, and the Escrow Agent shall have no fiduciary obligation to any party hereto. The Escrow Agent shall be obligated to act only in accordance with written instructions received by him as provided herein, except that the Escrow Agent shall comply with any final and unappealable order, judgment or decree of any court of competent jurisdiction received by him. No implied duties or obligations of any kind shall be read into this Agreement.

 

(b)               Limitation on Liability. In performing his duties hereunder, the Escrow Agent shall not incur any liability to anyone for any damages, losses or expenses except for damages, losses or expenses resulting directly from the willful default, gross negligence or fraud of the Escrow Agent. In no event will the Escrow Agent be liable for any special, consequential or punitive damages.

 

(c)                Reliance on Counsel, etc. The Escrow Agent shall not in any case incur liability with respect to any action taken or omitted in good faith upon advice of counsel, or any action taken or omitted in reliance upon any written notice, release or other document provided to the Escrow Agent as to the genuineness of the signatures thereon, the authority of the signatories, its due execution, the validity and effectiveness of its provisions, or the truth and accuracy of the information contained therein.

 

(d)               Indemnification of Escrow Agent; Expenses. The Escrow Agent shall not be responsible for initiating any action, claim or proceeding hereunder. The Purchasers and the Seller shall jointly and severally indemnify the Escrow Agent (and his heirs and legal representatives) and hold him and them harmless from and against, any and all losses, damages, liability and expenses, including attorney’s fees, incurred by the Escrow Agent in connection with the performance of his duties hereunder, including but not limited to attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses of defending against any claim of liability (except liability arising out of the Escrow Agent’s fraud, willful default or gross negligence) arising out of this Agreement. The Escrow Agent shall not be obligated to take any legal or other action hereunder which might in his judgment involve or cause him to incur any expense or liability unless he shall have been furnished with acceptable indemnification.

 

(e)                Disputes. In the event of any dispute between the parties, or if any conflicting demand shall be made upon the Escrow Agent, the Escrow Agent shall not be required to determine the same or take any action thereon. Rather, the Escrow Agent may, at his sole option, (a) retain the certificates for the Note and the other closing documents and instruments in his possession, without liability to anyone, until such dispute shall have been settled or resolved; or (b) file a suit in interpleader in the Third Judicial District Court in and for Salt Lake County, State of Utah, for the purpose of having the respective rights of the parties adjudicated. The Escrow Agent may, upon initiation of such suit, deposit the Notes with the court and, upon giving notice thereof to the parties, the Escrow Agent shall be fully released and discharged from all further obligations hereunder.

 

(f)                Resignation. The Escrow Agent may resign at any time by delivering notice to the parties hereto. If the parties fail to advise the Escrow Agent within ten business days as to the appointment of a successor, the Escrow Agent may, at his sole option, (a) retain the Purchased Shares and the other closing documents and instruments in his possession, without liability to anyone, until such appointment shall have been made; or (b) file a suit in interpleader in the Third Judicial District Court in and for Salt Lake County, State of Utah, for the purpose of having a successor appointed. The Escrow Agent may, upon initiation of such suit, deposit the Purchased Shares with the court and, upon giving notice thereof to the parties, the Escrow Agent shall be fully released and discharged from all further obligations hereunder.

 

(g)               Escrow Fees and Costs. The Escrow Agent is being paid its fees and costs incurred hereunder pursuant to the SPA by the purchaser named in and pursuant to the SPA and, therefore, no party to this Agreement will be required to pay any fees or costs in connection with the Escrow Agents duties and responsibilities hereunder.

The parties hereto expressly and irrevocably waive any claim that any such jurisdiction is not a convenient forum for any such suit or proceeding and any defense or lack of in personam jurisdiction with respect thereto. In the event of any such action or proceeding, the party prevailing therein shall be entitled to payment from the other parties hereto of all of its reasonable counsel fees and disbursements.

15. Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the documents and instruments referred to in this Agreement) and the SPA contain the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter contained in this Agreement, and supersedes and cancels all prior agreements, negotiations, correspondence, undertakings and communications of the parties, oral or written, respecting such subject matter.

 

16. Amendment. Neither this Agreement nor any provision may be amended or modified except by written agreement signed by the Parties hereto.

 

17. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in multiple facsimile or original counterparts. Each of the counterparts shall be deemed an original, and together they shall constitute one and the same binding Agreement, with one counterpart being delivered to each Party hereto.
