EXHIBIT 10.2




CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE




			
	$100,000.00
	 	June 4, 2010
	 
	 	Alpharetta, Georgia






FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, SANUWAVE HEALTH, INC. (the “Company”), promises
to pay to the order of TODD R. PEDERSEN, or his registered assigns (the “Holder”), the
principal sum of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000.00), 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 ninety (90) days 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 five
percent (5%) per annum on the unpaid principal amount in arrears. Provided this Note is not
converted in accordance with Section 4 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. Warrant. At the earlier of the Maturity Date or the Prepayment Date, and provided
that this Note has not been converted in accordance with Section 4 below, the Company shall
issue the Holder a warrant, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A to purchase, at a
purchase price of $4.00 per share, the number of shares of the Company’s common stock, par value
$0.001 determined as follows:




The number of shares is determined by dividing the sum of the principal and interest
payable hereunder by twenty (20). For example: if the sum of the principal and
interest is $200,000, the number of shares equals 10,000 (200,000 / 20).




4. Conversion.



(a) Upon the consummation of a Qualified Financing on or prior to the earlier of the Maturity
Date or the Prepayment Date, 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), (B) a warrant to purchase the same number of warrant shares as the number of
warrant shares a holder would have received had he 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,
and (C) any other securities to be issued pursuant to the Qualified Financing in the same amounts
and under the same terms the Holder would had 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
conversion price for the securities to be issued to the Holder shall be equal to the per share
purchase price of the Company Stock issued in the Qualified Financing, the “Conversion
Price”). For purposes of this Note, “Qualified Financing” shall mean the consummation,
on or prior to the earlier of the Maturity Date or the Prepayment Date, of a private placement of
not less than Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000) in the aggregate of Company Stock.


 


 









 





(b) 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.



(c) 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.



(d) 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.




5. 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 ten percent (10%) per annum. Time is of the
essence of this Note. The Company agrees to pay all costs and expenses of collection of the
indebtedness evidenced by this Note including fifteen percent (15%) of the amount of principal and
interest involved as attorneys’ fees (if collected by or through an attorney) in connection with
such collection.



(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.

6. 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.



7. 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.



8. 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.



9. 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.

EXHIBIT A




Form of Class A Warrant Agreement




SANUWAVE HEALTH, INC.




Warrant for the Purchase of [____]

Shares of Common Stock

Par Value $0.001




CLASS A WARRANT AGREEMENT

(this “Agreement”)





THE HOLDER OF THIS WARRANT, BY ACCEPTANCE HEREOF, BOTH WITH RESPECT TO THE WARRANT AND COMMON STOCK
ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE OF THE WARRANT, AGREES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY
THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE
“SECURITIES ACT”), OR UNDER THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE. THESE SECURITIES HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED
FOR INVESTMENT AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED (I) IN THE ABSENCE OF
(A) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND THE LAWS OF ANY APPLICABLE
STATE, OR (B) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER, AND ITS COUNSEL, TO THE
EFFECT THAT THE SALE OR TRANSFER IS EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND SUCH
STATE STATUTES, OR (II) UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT.



This is to certify that, for value received,                     , (the “Holder”) is entitled to
purchase from SANUWAVE HEALTH, INC. (the “Company”), on the terms and conditions hereinafter set
forth, all or any part of [_____] shares (“Warrant Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par
value $0.001 (the “Common Stock”), at the purchase price of $4.00 per share (“Warrant Price”).
Upon exercise of this warrant in whole or in part, a certificate for the Warrant Shares so
purchased shall be issued and delivered to the Holder. If, at any time prior to the Expiration
Date (as defined below), less than the total warrant is exercised, a new warrant of similar tenor
shall be issued for the unexercised portion of the warrants represented by this Agreement.




This warrant is granted subject to the following further terms and conditions:



1. This warrant shall be exercisable at any time or from time to time after the execution and
delivery of this Warrant by the Company on the date hereof and shall expire at 5:00 p.m. Eastern
Time on the date that is five years following the date hereof (the “Expiration Date”). In order to
exercise this warrant with respect to all or any part of the Warrant Shares for which this warrant
is at the time exercisable, the Holder (or in the case of exercise after the Holder’s death, the
Holder’s executor, administrator, heir or legatee, as the case may be) must take the following
actions:



(a) Deliver to the Corporate Secretary of the Company an executed notice of exercise
substantially in the form of notice attached to this Agreement (the “Exercise Notice”) in which
there is specified the number of Warrant Shares that are to be purchased under the exercised
warrant;



(b) Tender payment of the aggregate Warrant Price for the purchased shares in cash or by check
made payable to the Company’s order; and



(c) Furnish to the Company appropriate documentation that the person or persons exercising the
warrant (if other than the Holder) have the right to exercise the warrant.


 


4









 





(d) For purposes of this Agreement, the “Exercise Date” shall be the date on which the
executed Exercise Notice shall have been delivered to the Company.



(e) Upon such exercise, the Company shall issue and cause to be delivered, with all reasonable
dispatch (and in any event within five business days of such exercise), to or upon the written
order of the Holder at its address, and in the name of the Holder, a certificate or certificates
for the number of full Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise, together with such other property
(including cash) and securities as may then be deliverable upon such exercise. Such certificate or
certificates shall be deemed to have been issued and the Holder shall be deemed to have become a
holder of record of such Warrant Shares as of the Exercise Date.



2. The Holder acknowledges that this warrant may not be exercised if the issuance of the
Warrant Shares upon such exercise would constitute a violation of any applicable federal or state
securities laws, or other law or regulation, and the Warrant Shares have not been and will not be
registered as of the date of exercise of this warrant under the Securities Act or the securities
laws of any state. The Holder acknowledges that this warrant and the Warrant Shares, when and if
issued, are and will be “restricted securities” as defined in Rule 144 promulgated under the
Securities Act and must be held indefinitely unless subsequently registered under the Securities
Act and any other applicable state registration requirements. Except as provided herein, the
Company is under no obligation to register the securities under the Securities Act or under
applicable state statutes. In the absence of such a registration or an available exemption from
registration, sale of the Warrant Shares may be practicably impossible. The Holder shall confirm
to the Company the representations set forth above in connection with the exercise of all or any
portion of this warrant.



3. The number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this warrant and the Warrant
Price per share shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:



(a) In the event that the Company should at any time, or from time to time, fix a record date
for the effectuation of a split, either forward or reverse, subdivision or combination of the
outstanding shares of Common Stock, or the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to
receive a dividend or other distribution payable in additional shares of Common Stock or other
securities or rights convertible into, or entitling the holder thereof to receive directly or
indirectly, additional shares of Common Stock (hereinafter referred to as “Common Stock
Equivalents”), without payment of any consideration by such holder for the additional shares of
Common Stock or the Common Stock Equivalents (including the additional shares of Common Stock
issuable upon conversion or exercise thereof), then, as of such record date (or the date of such
dividend distribution, split or subdivision if no record date is fixed), the number of Warrant
Shares purchasable hereunder shall be appropriately increased or decreased in proportion to such
increase or decrease in the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock outstanding and those
issuable with respect to such Common Stock Equivalents.



(b) Whenever there is an adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the
exercise of this warrant pursuant to the provisions of Section 3(a), the Warrant Price shall be
adjusted to an amount proportionate to the adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares.



(c) If at any time, or from time to time, there shall be a recapitalization of the Common
Stock (other than a subdivision or combination, or merger or sale of assets transaction provided
for elsewhere in this Section 3) provision shall be made so that the Holder shall thereafter be
entitled to receive upon exercise of this warrant the number of shares of Common Stock, Common
Stock Equivalents or property of the Company or otherwise, to which the Holder would have been
entitled upon such recapitalization assuming this warrant was exercised immediately prior thereto.
In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made
in the application of the provisions of this Section 3 with respect to the rights of the Holder of
this warrant after the recapitalization to the end that the provisions of this Section 3 (including
adjustment of the Warrant Price then in effect and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon
exercise) shall be applicable after that event as nearly equivalent as may be practicable.



 


5









 





(d) If at any time, or from time to time, the Company shall consolidate with or merge into
another corporation, or shall sell, lease, or convey to another corporation the assets of the
Company as an entity or substantially as an entity (any one or more of such transactions being a
“Corporate Transaction”), provision shall be made so that the Holder shall thereafter be entitled
to receive upon exercise of this warrant the number of shares of Common Stock, Common Stock
Equivalents or property of the Company or otherwise, to which the Holder would have been entitled
to receive in such Corporate Transaction assuming this warrant was exercised immediately prior
thereto. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the
provisions of this Section 3 with respect to the rights of the Holder of this warrant after the
Corporate Transaction to the end that the provisions of this Section 3 (including adjustment of the
Warrant Price then in effect and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise) shall be
applicable after that event as nearly equivalent as may be practicable.



4. The Company covenants and agrees that all Warrant Shares which may be delivered upon the
exercise of this warrant will, upon delivery, be free from all taxes, liens, and charges with
respect to the purchase thereof; provided, that the Company shall have no obligation with respect
to any income tax liability of the Holder.



5. The Company agrees at all times to reserve or hold available a sufficient number of shares
of Common Stock to cover the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this warrant.



6. This warrant shall not entitle the holder hereof to any voting rights or other rights as a
shareholder of the Company, or to any other rights whatsoever, except the rights herein expressed,
and no dividends shall be payable or accrue in respect of this warrant or the Warrant Shares until
or unless, and except to the extent that, this warrant shall be exercised.



7. The Company may deem and treat the registered owner of this warrant as the absolute owner
hereof for all purposes and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary.



8. In the event that any provision of this Agreement is found to be invalid or otherwise
unenforceable under any applicable law, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not be construed
as rendering any other provisions contained herein invalid or unenforceable, and all such other
provisions shall be given full force and effect to the same extent as though the invalid or
unenforceable provision was not contained herein.



9. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of
the State of Georgia, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof.



10. This Agreement shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of the Company and the person
to whom a warrant is granted hereunder, and such person’s heirs, executors, administrators,
legatees, personal representatives, assignees, and transferees.




11. The Company shall not have any right to redeem any of the Warrants evidenced hereby.

Exercise Notice

(to be signed only upon exercise of Warrant)





TO: SANUWAVE HEALTH, INC.



The Holder of the attached warrant hereby irrevocable elects to exercise the purchase rights
represented by the warrant for, and to purchase thereunder,                                          shares of common
stock of SANUWAVE Health, Inc. and herewith makes payment therefor, and requests that the
certificate(s) for such shares be delivered to the Holder at:



	 	 	 
	 

	 	 
	 
	 	 
	 

	 	 
	 
	 	 
	 

	 	 






If acquired without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Securities
Act”), the Holder represents that the Common Stock is being acquired without a view to, or for,
resale in connection with any distribution thereof without registration or other compliance under
the Securities Act and applicable state statutes, and that the Holder has no direct or indirect
participation in any such undertaking or in the underwriting of such an undertaking. The Holder
understands that the Common Stock has not been registered, but is being acquired by reason of a
specific exemption under the Securities Act as well as under certain state statutes for
transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering and that any disposition of the Common
Stock may, under certain circumstances, be inconsistent with these exemptions. The Holder
acknowledges that the Common Stock must be held and may not be sold, transferred, or otherwise
disposed of for value unless subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from
such registration is available. The Company is under no obligation to register the Common Stock
under the Securities Act or any state securities law, except as provided in the Agreement for the
warrant. The certificates representing the Common Stock will bear a legend restricting transfer,
except in compliance with applicable federal and state securities statutes.



The Holder agrees and acknowledges that this purported exercise of the warrant is conditioned
on, and subject to, any compliance with requirements of applicable federal and state securities
laws deemed necessary by the Company.
