On July 21, 2023, SANUWAVE Health, Inc. (the “Company”) issued Asset-Backed Secured Promissory Notes in an aggregate principal amount of $4.6 million (the “Notes”) to certain accredited investors (the “Purchasers”) at an original issue discount of 33.33% (the “Private Placement”). The Notes bear interest at a rate of zero percent (0%) per annum and mature on January 21, 2023 (the “Maturity Date”). The closing of the Private Placement occurred on July 21, 2023, when the Company received total proceeds of approximately $3.0 million.
The Notes were offered and sold in a transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, in reliance on Section 4(a)(2) thereof. Each Purchaser represented that it was an accredited investor.
In connection with the Private Placement, on July 21, 2023, the Company entered into a security agreement in favor of each Purchaser to secure the Company’s obligations under the Notes (the “Security Agreement”).
The rights of each Purchaser to receive payments under its Notes are subordinate to the rights of NH Expansion Credit Fund Holdings LP (“North Haven Expansion”) pursuant to a subordination agreement, which the Company and the Purchasers entered into with North Haven Expansion on July 21, 2023 in connection with the Private Placement (the “Subordination Agreement”).
On July 21, 2023, the Company and the Purchasers also entered into a side letter (the “Side Letter”), pursuant to which the parties agreed that upon the Maturity Date, the Company will issue each Purchaser (i) a Future Advance Convertible Promissory Note (the “Future Advance Convertible Promissory Note”) with the same principal amount as the principal amount of such Purchasers’ Note, plus any accrued and unpaid interest, substantially in the form of Exhibit 4.29 to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the “Form 10-K”) and (ii) two Common Stock Purchase Warrants (the “Warrants”), one with an exercise price of $0.04 per share and one with an exercise price of $0.067 per share, substantially in the form of Exhibit 4.30 to the Form 10-K, each of which shall be exercisable for such number of shares of the Company’s common stock calculated by dividing the principal amount of the Purchaser’s Future Advance Convertible Promissory Note by $0.04. In addition, the parties agreed to enter into a securities purchase agreement, a subordination agreement, a security agreement and a registration rights agreement, which shall be substantially in the forms of Exhibits 10.67, 10.68, 10.69 and 10.70, respectively, to the Form 10-K.
