SECURITY AGREEMENT

Security Interest. This Agreement will constitute a security agreement under the Uniform Commercial Code. Merchant grants to GCF a security interest in and lien upon: (a) all accounts, chattel paper, documents, equipment, general intangibles, instruments, and inventory, as those terms are defined in Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code (the “UCC”), now or hereafter owned or acquired by Merchant, (b) all proceeds, as that term is defined in Article 9 of the UCC (c) all funds at any time in the Merchant’s Account, regardless of the source of such funds, (d) present and future Electronic Check Transactions, and (e) any amount which may be due to GCF under this Agreement, including but not limited to all rights to receive any payments or credits under this Agreement (collectively, the “Secured Assets”). Merchant agrees to provide other security to GCF upon request to secure Merchant’s obligations under this Agreement. Merchant agrees that, if at any time there are insufficient funds in Merchant’s Account to cover GCF entitlements under this Agreement, GCF is granted a further security interest in all of Merchant’s assets of any kind whatsoever, and such assets shall then become Secured Assets. These security interests and liens will secure all of GCF entitlements under this Agreement and any other agreements now existing or later entered into between Merchant, GCF or an affiliate of GCF. GCF is authorized to file any and all notices or filings it deems necessary or appropriate to enforce its entitlements hereunder.

This security interest may be exercised by GCF without notice or demand of any kind by making an immediate withdrawal or freezing the Secured Assets. Pursuant to Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code, as amended from time to time, GCF has control over and may direct the disposition of the Secured Assets, without further consent of Merchant. Merchant hereby represents and warrants that no other person or entity has a security interest in the Secured Assets. With respect to such security interests and liens, GCF will have all rights afforded under the Uniform Commercial Code, any other applicable law and in equity. Merchant will obtain from GCF written consent prior to granting a security interest of any kind in the Secured Assets to a third party. Merchant agrees that this is a contract of recoupment and GCF is not required to file a motion for relief from a bankruptcy action automatic stay to realize on any of the Secured Assets. Nevertheless, Merchant agrees not to contest or object to any motion for relief from the automatic stay filed by GCF. Merchant agrees to execute and deliver to GCF such instruments and documents GCF may reasonably request to perfect and confirm the lien, security interest and right of setoff set forth in this Agreement. GCF is authorized to execute all such instruments and documents in Merchant’s name.

Additional Collateral. To secure Guarantor’s performance obligations to GCF under the Guaranty, the Guarantor hereby grants GCF a security interest in SANUWAVE SERVICES, LLC the “Additional Collateral”). Guarantor understands that GCF will have a security interest in the aforesaid Additional Collateral upon execution of this Agreement. Merchant and Guarantor each acknowledge and agree that any security interest granted to GCF under any other agreement between Merchant or Guarantor and GCF (the “Cross-Collateral”) will secure the obligations hereunder and under the Merchant Agreement.

Merchant and Guarantor each agrees to execute any documents or take any action in connection with this Agreement as GCF deems necessary to perfect or maintain GCF first priority security interest in the Collateral and the Additional Collateral, including the execution of any account control agreements. Merchant and Guarantor each hereby authorizes GCF to file any financing statements deemed necessary by GCF to perfect or maintain GCF security interest, which financing statement may contain notification that Merchant and/or Guarantor have granted a negative pledge to GCF with respect to the Collateral, and the Additional Collateral, and that any subsequent lien or may be tortuously interfering with GCF rights. Merchant and Guarantor shall be liable for, and GCF may charge and collect, all costs and expenses, including but not limited to attorney’s fees, which may be incurred by GCF in protecting, preserving and enforcing GCF security interest and rights.

Negative Pledge. Merchant and Guarantor each agrees not to create, incur, assume, or permit to exist, directly or indirectly, any lien on or with respect to any of the Collateral or the Additional Collateral, as applicable.

Consent to Enter Premises and Assign lease. GCF shall have the right to cure Merchant’s default in the payment of rent on the following terms. In the event Merchant is served with papers in an action against Merchant for nonpayment of rent or for summary eviction, GCF may execute its rights and remedies under the Assignment of Lease.
