This SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT (the “Subscription Agreement”) made as of this ___ day of _________, 2014 between SANUWAVE Health, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), and _____________________ (the “Subscriber”).
WHEREAS, the Company desires to issue up to $1,000,000 in convertible promissory Notes (“Notes”) in a private placement to “accredited investors” (the “Note Offering”) on the terms and conditions set forth herein, and the Subscriber desires to acquire the principal sum of Notes set forth on the signature page hereof;
WHEREAS, the principal under the Notes shall be due and payable nine (9) months after the issuance of the Note (the “Maturity Date”), together with interest from the date thereof (computed on the basis of a 365-day year) at the rate of eighteen percent (18%) per annum on the unpaid principal amount in arrears. Provided the Note is not converted as discussed below, interest shall be due and payable at the earlier of (i) the Maturity Date, or (ii) the Prepayment Date (as defined below). No principal or interest shall be payable or callable under the Note until the earlier of (a) the Maturity Date or (b) the Prepayment Date;
WHEREAS, the Company may prepay the Note in cash, in whole but not in part, prior to the Maturity Date or the conversion of the Note (the “Prepayment Date”);
WHEREAS, upon the consummation of a Qualified Financing ( as defined below), the Company shall cause the conversion of the unpaid principal and interest on the Note into (A) shares of the Company's common stock, par value $0.001 (the “Company Stock”), the number of such shares to be equal to the amount obtained by dividing (i) by the unpaid principal and interest on the Note to be converted, by (ii) the Conversion Price (as defined below), and (B) a warrant to purchase the same number of warrant shares as the number of warrant shares a note holder would have received had he/she invested an amount equal to the unpaid principal and interest on the Note to be converted in the Qualified Financing; the terms of such warrant to be substantially similar to the terms of the warrant granted pursuant to the Qualified Financing. The conversion price for the securities to be issued to the note holder shall be equal to the lower of (i) the per share purchase price of the Company Stock issued in the Qualified Financing, reduced by a discount of ten percent (10%), or (ii) $0.55 (the “Conversion Price”). For purposes of the Note, “Qualified Financing” shall mean (i) the consummation of a private placement of debt or equity securities of not less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) in the aggregate, or (ii) upon a successful sale in a registered offering (including a public offering) resulting in gross proceeds to the Company of at least One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) in the aggregate;
WHEREAS, until the repayment in full of the Note, the Subscriber may convert the Note at any time into shares of Company Stock, the number of such shares to be equal to the amount obtained by dividing (i) the unpaid principal and interest on the Note to be converted, by (ii) $0.55; and,
WHEREAS, the Subscriber is delivering simultaneously herewith a completed confidential investor questionnaire (the “Questionnaire”).
NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the premises and the covenants hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto do hereby agree as follows:
I. SUBSCRIPTION FOR NOTES; CLOSING
1.1 Subscription for Notes. Subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, the Subscriber hereby subscribes for and agrees to purchase from the Company such principal amount of Notes as is set forth upon the signature page hereof, and the Company hereby agrees to issue such Notes to the Subscriber for said purchase price. The purchase price is payable by certified or bank check made payable to “SANUWAVE Health, Inc.” or by wire transfer of funds, contemporaneously with the execution and delivery of this Subscription Agreement.
1.2 The Closing. Subject to the clearance of all funds from a Subscriber representing a Note, the closing (the “Closing”) of the issuance of the Note to the Subscriber shall take place.
1.3 Certificates. The Subscriber hereby authorizes and directs the Company, upon Closing of the Offering, to deliver the Note pursuant to this Subscription Agreement to the Subscriber’s address indicated upon the signature page hereof.
1.4 Shareholder Rights. The Subscriber hereby acknowledges that the Subscriber shall not be entitled to any voting rights or other rights as a stockholder of the Company, or to any other rights whatsoever, except the rights herein expressed.
II. REPRESENTATIONS BY AND COVENANTS OF SUBSCRIBER
2.1 Reliance on Exemptions. The Subscriber acknowledges that the Note Offering has not been registered with or reviewed by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) or any state agency because of the Company’s representations that this is intended to be a non-public offering exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and state securities laws. The Subscriber understands that the Company is relying in part upon the truth and accuracy of, and the Subscriber’s compliance with, the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of the Subscriber set forth herein and in the Questionnaire in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of the Subscriber to acquire the Notes.
2.2 Investment Purpose. The Subscriber represents that the Notes are being purchased for its own account, for investment purposes only and not for distribution or resale to others in contravention of the registration requirements of the Securities Act. The Subscriber agrees that it will not sell or otherwise transfer, upon Conversion of the Notes, the Common Stock, the Warrants or the shares of Common Stock underlying the Warrants (collectively, the “Securities”) unless they are registered under the Securities Act or unless an exemption from such registration is available.
2.3 Accredited Investor. The Subscriber represents and warrants that it is an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act, as indicated by its responses to the Questionnaire, and that it is able to bear the economic risk of any investment in the Notes. The Subscriber further represents and warrants that the information furnished in the Questionnaire is accurate and complete in all material respects.
2.4 Risk of Investment. The Subscriber recognizes that the purchase of Notes involves a high degree of risk in that: (i) an investment in the Company is highly speculative and only investors who can afford the loss of their entire investment should consider investing in the Company and the Securities; (ii) transferability of the Securities is extremely limited; and (iii) the Company may require substantial additional funds to operate its business.
2.5 Information. The Subscriber acknowledges careful review of this Subscription Agreement, and hereby represents that: (i) the Subscriber has been furnished by the Company during the course of this transaction with all information regarding the Company which it has requested; and (ii) that the Subscriber has been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from duly authorized officers of the Company concerning the Company’s business and prospects and the terms and conditions of the Offering, and any additional information which it has requested. The Subscriber further acknowledges that it is aware of and has had the opportunity to access and review all of the Company’s periodic reports as filed with the SEC and publically available, including, but not limited to the risk factors detailed in the Company’s Form 10-K for the 2012 fiscal year.
2.6 No Representations. The Subscriber hereby represents that no representations or warranties have been made to the Subscriber by the Company or any agent, employee or affiliate of the Company, and in entering into this transaction the Subscriber is not relying on any information other than the results of independent investigation by the Subscriber.
2.7 Tax Consequences. The Subscriber acknowledges that the Note Offering may involve tax consequences. The Subscriber acknowledges that it must retain its own professional advisors to evaluate the tax and other consequences of an investment in the Notes.
2.8 Transfer or Resale. The Subscriber acknowledges that there is a limited public market for the Company’s securities and the Subscriber understands that Rule 144 (the “Rule”) promulgated under the Securities Act requires, among other conditions, a minimum holding period prior to the resale of securities acquired in a non-public offering without having to satisfy the registration requirements under the Securities Act. The Subscriber acknowledges that while Rule 144 presently is available with respect to the resale of any Securities to be issued upon the conversion of the Notes purchased in the Note Offering by the Subscriber (subject to applicable holding periods and volume limitations), the Company makes no representation or warranty regarding its fulfillment in the future of any reporting requirements under the Securities Exchange Act or 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or its dissemination to the public of any current financial or other information concerning the Company, as is required by the Rule as one of the conditions of its availability. The Subscriber understands that the Company may permit the transfer of the Securities out of the Subscriber’s name only when the Subscriber’s request for transfer is accompanied by an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company that neither the sale nor the proposed transfer results in a violation of the Securities Act or any applicable state securities laws.
2.9 Legends. The Subscriber understands that the certificates representing the Securities, until such time as they have been registered under the Securities Act, shall bear a restrictive legend in substantially the following form (and a stop-transfer order may be placed against transfer of such certificates or other instruments):
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED (I) IN THE ABSENCE OF (A) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, OR (B) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, IN A REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE FORM, THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, OR (II) UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 UNDER SAID ACT.
The legend set forth above shall be removed and the Company shall issue a certificate without such legend to the holder of the Securities upon which it is stamped, if (a) such Securities are being sold pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act, or (b) such holder delivers to the Company an opinion of counsel, in a reasonably acceptable form to the Company, that a disposition of the Securities may be made pursuant to Rule 144 without any restriction.
2.10 No General Solicitation. The Subscriber represents that the Subscriber was not induced to invest by any form of general solicitation or general advertising including, but not limited to, the following: (i) any advertisement, article, notice or other communication published in any newspaper, magazine or similar media or broadcast over the news or radio; or (ii) any seminar or meeting whose attendees were invited by any general solicitation or advertising.
2.11 Validity; Enforcement. If the Subscriber is a corporation, partnership, trust or other entity, the Subscriber represents and warrants that: (a) it is authorized and otherwise duly qualified to purchase and hold the Notes; and (b) that this Subscription Agreement has been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered and constitutes the legal, binding and enforceable obligation of the undersigned.
2.12 Address; Identification Number. The Subscriber hereby represents that the address of Subscriber furnished by the Subscriber at the end of this Subscription Agreement is the undersigned’s principal residence if the Subscriber is an individual or its principal business address if it is a corporation or other entity, and that the taxpayer identification number or social security number, as applicable, furnished herein is correct.
2.13 Foreign Subscriber. If the Subscriber is not a United States person, such Subscriber hereby represents that it has satisfied itself as to the full observance of the laws of its jurisdiction in connection with any invitation to subscribe for the notes or any use of this Subscription Agreement, including: (a) the legal requirements within its jurisdiction for the purchase of the Notes; (b) any foreign exchange restrictions applicable to such purchase; (c) any governmental or other consents that may need to be obtained; and (d) the income tax and other tax consequences, if any, that may be relevant to the purchase, holding, redemption, sale or transfer of the Securities. Such Subscriber’s subscription and payment for, and its continued beneficial ownership of the Securities, will not violate any applicable securities or other laws of the Subscriber’s jurisdiction.
2.14 NASD Member. The Subscriber acknowledges that if it is a registered representative of a NASD member firm, the Subscriber must give such firm notice required by the NASD’s Rules of Fair Practice, receipt of which must be acknowledged by such firm on the signature page hereof.
2.15 Confidentiality. The Subscriber acknowledges that certain information provided by the Company to the Subscriber, in connection with the Subscriber’s decision to acquire the Company’s Notes (the “Information”), is confidential and may constitute material, non-public information, and the Subscriber agrees to maintain the Information in confidence and not to disclose or trade on the basis of such Information; provided, however, that the Subscriber’s obligations shall not apply to any Information that (i) is part of the public domain or literature and readily accessible at the date hereof; or (ii) becomes part of the public domain or literature and readily accessible by publication by means of a press release or other appropriate disclosure mechanism as permitted under Regulation FD promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Further, this obligation does not prohibit discussion by the Subscriber of the Information with the Subscriber’s counsel, accountant, or other financial advisor solely for the purpose of assisting in an analysis and assessment of the Information and the Note Offering.

Sample Note Agreement
CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE
$___,000.00 |
______, 0000 |
|
Xxxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx |
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, SANUWAVE HEALTH, INC. (the “Company”), promises to pay to the order of ________, or his/her registered assigns (the “Holder”), the principal sum of ______ Dollars ($____,000.00), with interest thereon from time to time as provided herein.
1. Maturity Date; Repayment; Interest. The principal under this Note shall be due and payable nine (9) months after the issuance of this Note (the “Maturity Date”), together with interest from the date hereof (computed on the basis of a 365-day year) at the rate of eighteen percent (18%) per annum on the unpaid principal amount in arrears. Provided this Note is not converted in accordance with Section 3 below, interest shall be due and payable at the earlier of (i) the Maturity Date, or (ii) the Prepayment Date (defined below). No principal or interest shall be payable or callable under this Note until the earlier of (a) the Maturity Date or (b) the Prepayment Date.
2. Prepayment. The Company may prepay the Note in cash, in whole but not in part, prior to the Maturity Date or the conversion of the Note (the “Prepayment Date”).
3. Conversion.
(a) Upon the consummation of a Qualified Financing, the Company shall cause the conversion of the unpaid principal and interest on this Note into (A) shares of the Company's common stock, par value $0.001 (the “Company Stock”), the number of such shares to be equal to the amount obtained by dividing (i) by the unpaid principal and interest on this Note to be converted, by (ii) the Conversion Price (as defined below), and (B) a warrant to purchase the same number of warrant shares as the number of warrant shares a Holder would have received had he/she invested an amount equal to the unpaid principal and interest on this Note to be converted in the Qualified Financing; the terms of such warrant to be substantially similar to the terms of the warrant granted pursuant to the Qualified Financing. The conversion price for the securities to be issued to the Holder shall be equal to the lower of (i) the per share purchase price of the Company Stock issued in the Qualified Financing, reduced by a discount of ten percent (10%), and (ii) $0.55 ( the “Conversion Price”). For purposes of this Note, “Qualified Financing” shall mean (i) the consummation of a private placement of debt or equity securities of not less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) in the aggregate, or (ii) upon a successful sale in a registered offering (including a public offering) resulting in gross proceeds to the Company of at least One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) in the aggregate.
(b) Until the repayment in full of this Note, in the sole and absolute discretion of the Holder, the unpaid principal and interest on this Note shall be convertible at any time into shares of Company Stock, the number of such shares to be equal to the amount obtained by dividing (i) the unpaid principal and interest on this Note to be converted, by (ii) $0.55, by submitting to the Company a notice of conversion, a form of which is attached hereto as Annex A (by facsimile or other reasonable means of communications, to the attention of the Chief Financial Officer).
(c) In the event of any conversion as provided above, the Company shall not issue fractional securities but shall pay the dollar equivalent of any fractional securities that would otherwise be issuable.
(d) The Company shall not be obligated to issue certificates evidencing the securities issuable upon such conversion unless the Note is either delivered to the Company or the Holder notifies the Company that such Note has been lost, stolen or destroyed and executes an agreement satisfactory to the Company to indemnify the Company from any loss incurred by it in connection with such Note. The Company shall, as soon as practicable after such delivery, or such agreement and indemnification, issue and deliver at such office to such holder of the Note, a certificate or certificates for the securities to which the Holder shall be entitled as the result of a conversion, as mutually agreed to between the Company and the Holder. The person or persons entitled to receive securities issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such securities on such date.
(e) In the event that any principal of or interest on this Note remains unpaid at any time after payment thereof is due hereunder, the Holder shall retain all rights hereunder until such time as amounts due, including additional accrued interest, have been paid in full. Subject to the foregoing, upon (I) either (w) payment in full by the Company to the Holder of all principal, interest and any other amounts due pursuant to the terms hereof or (x) conversion of this Note in full pursuant to the terms hereof, and (II) fulfillment by the Company of all its other material obligations hereunder, this Note shall terminate.
4. Defaults and Remedies.
(a) In the event the principal is not paid in full within three (3) business days of the due date stipulated above, or any other default occurs, then, from and after such date and until payment in full of the amount due hereunder, interest shall accrue on the outstanding principal balance of this Note at the simple rate equal to twenty-five percent (25%) per annum. Time is of the essence of this Note.
(b) Presentment for payment, demand, protest and notice of demand, dishonor, protest and non-payment and all other notices are hereby waived by the Company. No acceptance of a partial installment, late payment or indulgences granted from time to time shall be construed (i) as a novation of this Note or as a reinstatement of the indebtedness evidenced hereby or as a waiver of the right of the Holder thereafter to insist upon strict compliance with the terms of this Note, or (ii) to prevent the exercise of any right granted hereunder or by the laws of the State of Georgia; and the Company hereby expressly waives the benefit of any statute or rule of law or equity now provided, or which may hereafter be provided, which would produce a result contrary to or in conflict with the foregoing. No extension of the time for the payment of this Note or any installment due hereunder, made by agreement with any person now or hereafter liable for the payment of this Note, shall operate to release, discharge, modify, change or affect the original liability of the Company under this Note, either in whole or in part, unless the Holder agrees otherwise in writing.
(c) If for any circumstances whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision of this Note or of any other instrument evidencing or securing the indebtedness evidenced hereby, at the time performance of such provision shall be due, shall involve transcending the limit of validity presently prescribed by any applicable usury statute or any other applicable law, with regard to obligations of like character and amount, then, the obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced to the limit of such validity, so that in no event shall any action be possible under this Note or under any other instrument evidencing or securing the indebtedness evidenced hereby, that is in excess of the current limit of such validity, but such obligation shall be fulfilled to the limit of such validity.
5. Remedies Cumulative. No remedy herein conferred upon the Holder is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy and each and every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Company and the Holder waive presentment for payment, demand, protest and notice of dishonor.
6. Governing Law. This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Georgia regardless of conflicts of law principles.
7. Assignment. Neither the Holder nor the Company shall assign its rights or obligations under this Note to any third party. Any assignment in breach of the foregoing shall be void and of no force or effect.
8. Amendment/Waiver. No term of this Note may be amended and the observance of any term of this Note may not be waived except with the written consent of the Company and Holder hereof.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Note has been executed by the Company by its duly authorized officer as of the day and year first written above.
