RECITALS

A.           FHI and UAPC intend to effect a reverse triangular merger, pursuant to which Acquisition Sub will merge with and into UAPC and UAPC will survive. Immediately thereafter, UAPC will merge with and into FHI, and FHI will survive and, in connection therewith, will cause its name to be changed to “United American Petroleum Corp.” The merger transactions described above are collectively referred to herein as the “Mergers.”

B.           The parties intend that the Mergers contemplated by this Agreement will qualify as a tax-free reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Tax Code”).

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the representations, warranties and mutual covenants herein made, the parties hereby agree to the foregoing and as follows:

Section 1. Definitions.  Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein have the meanings set forth in the attached Schedule 1.

Section 2. The Mergers.

(a) Effecting the Mergers.  Upon the terms and subject to the conditions contained in this Agreement, at the Effective Time, Acquisition Sub shall be merged with and into UAPC, and the separate corporate existence of Acquisition Sub shall thereupon cease.  Immediately thereafter, FHI will merge UAPC into FHI pursuant to a Plan of Merger adopted by the board of directors of FHI (the “Board”) substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto and Articles of Merger substantially in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto, each filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada in accordance with Section 92A.180 of the Nevada Revised Statutes (2007).  As a result of the Mergers, the separate corporate existence of UAPC will cease, FHI will continue as the surviving corporation (the “Surviving Corporation”), and the name of FHI will be changed to “United American Petroleum Corp.”  At the Effective Time, all the properties, rights and privileges, and power of UAPC, shall vest in the Surviving Corporation, and all debts, liabilities and duties of UAPC shall become the debts, liabilities and duties of the Surviving Corporation.

(b) Conversion of Shares.

(i) Each share of common stock of UAPC (the “UAPC Shares”) issued and outstanding on the Closing Date (as defined in Section 3, below) shall, by virtue of the Mergers and without any action on the part of UAPC, FHI, Acquisition Sub, or the holders of the UAPC Shares as of the Closing Date (the “Original Holders”), be converted into and will become one and five tenths (1.5) share of validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable common stock of FHI (the “Share Ratio”) such that the Original Holders will be issued a total of 15,000,000 shares of FHI (the “New FHI Shares”) following the conversion.  No fractional shares will be issued, and any right to receive a fractional share will be rounded-up to the nearest whole share.

(ii) At the Effective Time, the UAPC Shares will be deemed canceled and retired and will cease to exist, and each holder of a certificate for UAPC Shares will cease to have any rights with respect thereto; provided, however, that, following the Closing Date, upon surrender of an original stock certificate representing UAPC Shares and the delivery of the deliverables listed in Section 2(c) below, FHI will deliver a stock certificate for shares of common stock of FHI to which such person is entitled pursuant to the Share Ratio, bearing any necessary or appropriate restrictive legend.

(iii) If any certificate evidencing UAPC Shares shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming the certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by FHI, the posting of an indemnity bond, in such reasonable amount as FHI or the transfer agent may direct, as collateral security against any claim that may be made with respect to the certificate, FHI will issue in exchange for the lost, stolen or destroyed certificate the applicable number of shares of FHI common stock.

(c) Reorganization.  The parties intend to adopt this Agreement and the Mergers as a plan of reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Tax Code.  The New FHI Shares issued in the Mergers will be issued solely in exchange for UAPC Shares, and no other transaction other than the Mergers represent, provides for or is intended to be an adjustment to the consideration paid for the UAPC Shares.  No consideration that could constitute “other property” within the meaning of Section 356(b) of the Tax Code is being transferred by FHI for UAPC Shares in the Mergers.  The parties shall not take a position on any tax return inconsistent with this Section 2(c).

(d) Further Actions.  If at any time after the Effective Time, FHI or UAPC reasonably determines that any deeds, assignments, or instruments, or conformations of transfer are necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement and to vest FHI with full right, title and possession to all assets, property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of UAPC, the officers and directors of FHI and UAPC are fully authorized in the name of their respective corporations or otherwise to take, and will take, all such lawful and necessary or desirable actions.

(e) Cancellation of Shares of FHI Common Stock. In consideration of UAPC’s willingness to enter into the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and in order to provide an appropriate capital structure after the Closing, immediately prior to the Effective Time, FHI and Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxx shall enter into a stock cancellation agreement (the “Cancellation Agreement”) pursuant to which FHI shall cause to be cancelled 2,550,000 shares of FHI common stock held by Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxx.
