         Certain important information is set forth in certain reports or
statements filed by UFP Technologies, Inc. (the "Company") with the Securities
and Exchange Commission. The reports or documents listed below are incorporated
herein by reference:

         (a) the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2001 (which incorporates by reference certain portions of the
Company's Proxy Statement for the Company's 2002 Annual Meeting of Stockholders
held on June 5, 2002);

         (b) the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended
March 31, 2002;

         (c) the Company's definitive Proxy Statement for the Annual Meeting of
Stockholders held on June 5, 2002;

         (d) all reports filed by the Company pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 for periods since March 31, 2002; and

         (e) the information set forth under "Description of Registrant's
Securities to be Registered" in the Company's Registration Statement on Form 8-A
dated December 6, 1993 as amended on December 8, 1993 (File No. 1-12648) which
incorporates by reference the description of the Company's securities contained
in the Company's Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 33-70912).

         All documents filed by the Company pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c),
14 and 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, prior to the filing of a
post-effective amendment which indicates that all securities offered have been
sold or which deregisters all securities then remaining unsold, shall be deemed
to be incorporated by reference and to be a part hereof from the date of filing
such reports and documents.

Item 4.  DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES.

         Not applicable.

Item 5.  INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL.

         (a) Legal Matters. Lynch, Brewer, Hoffman & Fink, LLP, 101 Federal
Street, Floor 22, Boston, Massachusetts 02110, has rendered its opinion to the
Company that shares included in this offering will, when sold in accordance with
the terms of the Plans, be legally issued, fully paid and non-assessable. Owen
B. Lynch, a partner of Lynch, Brewer, Hoffman & Fink, LLP, is an Assistant
Secretary of the Company.

         (b) Experts. The financial statements and schedules incorporated by
reference in this prospectus and elsewhere in the registration statement have
been audited by Arthur Andersen LLP, independent public accountants, as
indicated in their report with respect thereto, and are included herein in
reliance upon the authority of said firm as experts in accounting and
auditing in giving said reports.

Item 6.  INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

         The Company's charter and by-laws provide that the Company may
indemnify all persons whom it shall have power to indemnify to the full extent
permitted by state law. Under Delaware law, a director, officer, employee or
agent who has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any
action, suit or proceeding or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein
shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorney's fees) actually and
reasonably incurred. In other circumstances, a director, officer, employee or
agent of the Company may be indemnified against expenses (including attorney's
fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably
incurred if he/she acted in good faith and has not been adjudged to have derived
an improper personal benefit from the transaction or occurrence forming the
basis for such settlement. The Company has entered into indemnification
agreements with each of its directors and anticipates that it will enter into
similar arrangements with any future directors. The Company may also enter into
similar agreements with certain of the Company's officers who are not also
directors. Generally, the indemnification agreements attempt to provide the
maximum protection permitted by Delaware law with respect to indemnification of
directors. The Company's charter further provides that directors are not liable
for monetary damages for certain violations of their duty of care.

Item 7.  EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION CLAIMED.

         Not Applicable

Item 8.  EXHIBITS.

         The Exhibit Index immediately preceding the exhibits is incorporated
herein by reference.

Item 9.  UNDERTAKINGS.

         A.       The Company hereby undertakes:

         (1) To file during any period in which offers or sales are being made,
a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

                  (i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of
                  the Securities Act of 1933;

                  (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising
                  after the effective date of the registration statement which,
                  individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental
                  change in the information set forth in the registration
                  statement;

                  (iii) To include any material information with respect to the
                  plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the
                  registration statement, or any material change to such
                  information in the registration statement; PROVIDED, HOWEVER,
                  that paragraphs (A)(1)(i) and (A)(1)(ii) do not apply if the
                  information required to be in a post-effective amendment by
                  those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed by the
                  Company pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the
                  Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by
                  reference in the registration statement.

         (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be
a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.

         (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment
any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of
the Plans.

         B. The Company hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any
liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the Company's annual
report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual
report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is
incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a
new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.

         C. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities under the Securities Act
of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers, and controlling persons of the
Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions or otherwise, the Company has been
advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such
indemnification is


                                       5
<Page>

against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is,
therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
such liabilities (other than the payment by the Company of expenses incurred or
paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Company in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Company will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the
final adjudication of such issue.

certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the
requirements for filing on Form S-8 and had duly caused this Registration
Statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly

         (d) all reports filed by the Company pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of

         (e) the information set forth under "Description of Registrant's

post-effective amendment which indicates that all securities offered have been

         Not applicable.

Item 5.  INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL.

         (a) Legal Matters. Lynch, Brewer, Hoffman & Fink, LLP, 101 Federal
Street, Floor 22, Boston, Massachusetts 02110, has rendered its opinion to the
Company that shares included in this offering will, when sold in accordance with
the terms of the Plans, be legally issued, fully paid and non-assessable. Owen
B. Lynch, a partner of Lynch, Brewer, Hoffman & Fink, LLP, is an Assistant
Secretary of the Company.

         (b) Experts. The financial statements and schedules incorporated by

reliance upon the authority of said firm as experts in accounting and
auditing in giving said reports.

Item 6.  INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

         The Company's charter and by-laws provide that the Company may
indemnify all persons whom it shall have power to indemnify to the full extent
permitted by state law. Under Delaware law, a director, officer, employee or
agent who has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any
action, suit or proceeding or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein
shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorney's fees) actually and
reasonably incurred. In other circumstances, a director, officer, employee or
agent of the Company may be indemnified against expenses (including attorney's
fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably
incurred if he/she acted in good faith and has not been adjudged to have derived
an improper personal benefit from the transaction or occurrence forming the
basis for such settlement. The Company has entered into indemnification
agreements with each of its directors and anticipates that it will enter into
similar arrangements with any future directors. The Company may also enter into
similar agreements with certain of the Company's officers who are not also
directors. Generally, the indemnification agreements attempt to provide the
maximum protection permitted by Delaware law with respect to indemnification of
directors. The Company's charter further provides that directors are not liable
for monetary damages for certain violations of their duty of care.

Item 7.  EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION CLAIMED.

         Not Applicable

         The Exhibit Index immediately preceding the exhibits is incorporated

Item 9.  UNDERTAKINGS.

         A.       The Company hereby undertakes:

         (1) To file during any period in which offers or sales are being made,
a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

                  (i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of
                  the Securities Act of 1933;

                  (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising
                  after the effective date of the registration statement which,
                  individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental
                  change in the information set forth in the registration
                  statement;

                  (iii) To include any material information with respect to the
                  plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the
                  registration statement, or any material change to such
                  information in the registration statement; PROVIDED, HOWEVER,
                  that paragraphs (A)(1)(i) and (A)(1)(ii) do not apply if the
                  information required to be in a post-effective amendment by
                  those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed by the
                  Company pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the
                  Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by
                  reference in the registration statement.

         (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be
a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.

         (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment
any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of
the Plans.

         B. The Company hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any
liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the Company's annual
report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual
report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is
incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a
new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.

         C. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities under the Securities Act
of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers, and controlling persons of the
Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions or otherwise, the Company has been
advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such
indemnification is

                                       5
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is,
therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
such liabilities (other than the payment by the Company of expenses incurred or
paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Company in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Company will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the
final adjudication of such issue.
