Item 1.01     Entry Into Material Definitive Agreement. 

 

On August 24, 2016, in conjunction with an offering of securities (the “Offering”) of SANUWAVE Health, Inc., a Nevada Corporation, (the “Company”), pursuant to certain exemptive provisions from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) and related rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with certain “accredited investors” (as that term is defined in the Commission’s Regulation D) (the “Purchasers”) for the issuance of an aggregate total 22,766,667 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”) for an aggregate total purchase price of $1,366,000.   The Company intends to use the proceeds from the Offering for working capital and general corporate purposes. The Offering is expected to close on or about August 25, 2016, at which time the securities will be issued. A copy of the Form of Securities Purchase Agreement is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K (this “Current Report”) as Exhibit 10.1, and is incorporated by reference herein.

 

In addition, the Company, in connection with the Offering, issued to the Purchasers an aggregate total of 22,766,667 warrants (the “Class L Warrants”) to purchase shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.08 per warrant. Each Class L Warrant represents the right to purchase one share of Common Stock. The warrants vested upon issuance and expire on March 17, 2019. A copy of the Form of Class L Warrant (which is Exhibit A to the Securities Purchase Agreement) is attached to this Current Report as Exhibit 4.1, and is incorporated by reference herein.

 

 
 

 

 

Pursuant to the terms of a Registration Rights Agreement that the Company entered with the Purchasers in connection with the Offering, the Company is required to file a registration statement or registration statements with the Commission that cover the resale by the Purchasers in the Offering of the shares of Common Stock and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Class L Warrants. The failure on the part of the Company to satisfy certain deadlines described in the Registration Rights Agreement may subject the Company to payment of certain monetary penalties. A copy of the Form of Registration Rights Agreement (which is Exhibit C to the Securities Purchase Agreement) is attached to this Current Report as Exhibit 10.2, and is incorporated by reference herein.

 

The Securities Purchase Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement and the Class L Warrant (collectively the “Agreements”) are included in this Current Report to provide information regarding their respective terms. They are not provided to give factual information about the Company or any other parties thereto. In addition, the representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Agreements were made only for purposes of those Agreements and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to those Agreements, and may be subject to limitations agreed by the contracting parties, including being qualified by disclosures exchanged between the parties in connection with the execution of the Agreements.  The representations and warranties may have been made for the purposes of allocating contractual risk between the parties to the Agreements instead of establishing these matters as facts, and may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors. Investors are not third-party beneficiaries under these Agreements and should not view the representations, warranties and covenants or any descriptions thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or conditions of the Company.

 

The foregoing descriptions of each of the Agreements contained in this Item 1.01(1) do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Agreements.

 

Anthony M. Stolarski, a member of our board of directors and an existing shareholder of the Company and Michael Nemelka, the brother of a member of our board of directors and an existing shareholder of the Company, were purchasers in the Offering.

 

Item 3.02     Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

 

To the extent required by Item 3.02 of Form 8-K, the information contained or incorporated in Item 1.01 of this Form 8-K is incorporated by reference in this Item 3.02.

 

The issuance and sale of the Common Stock described in Item 1.01 and 3.02 of this Current Report is exempt from registration under the Securities Act, pursuant to, inter alia, Section 4(a)2 of the Securities Act and Regulation D promulgated thereunder.  The Company has not engaged in general solicitation or advertising with regard to the issuance and sale of the Common Stock and has not offered securities to the public in connection with this issuance and sale.
