WAIVER AND FOURTH AMENDMENT TO CREDIT AGREEMENT

          This WAIVER AND FOURTH AMENDMENT TO CREDIT AGREEMENT (this “Amendment”), made and entered into as of February 13, 2013, is by and between Electromed, Inc., a Minnesota corporation (the “Borrower”), and U.S. Bank National Association, a national banking association (the “Bank”).

RECITALS

          A.     The Bank and the Borrower entered into that certain Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of November 7, 2011, between the Bank and the Borrower, as amended by that certain First Amendment to Credit Agreement dated as of December 30, 2011, that certain Consent and Waiver and Second Amendment to Credit Agreement dated as of May 14, 2012, and that certain Waiver and Third Amendment to Credit Agreement dated as of September 28, 2012 (as further amended, restated or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”).

          B.     Section 6.15 of the Credit Agreement forbids the Borrower from permitting the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio as of the last day of any fiscal quarter for the four consecutive fiscal quarters ending on that date to be less than 1.2 to 1.0. The Borrower has informed the Bank that the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2012, is less than 1.2 to 1.0, which constitutes an Event of Default under Section 7.1(c) of the Credit Agreement (the “FCCR Event of Default”).

          C.     Section 6.16 of the Credit Agreement forbids the Borrower from permitting the Total Cash Flow Leverage Ratio as of the last day of any fiscal quarter for the four consecutive fiscal quarters ending on that date to be more than 3.5 to 1.0. The Borrower has informed the Bank that the Total Cash Flow Leverage Ratio for the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2012, is more than 3.5 to 1.0, which constitutes an Event of Default under Section 7.1(c) of the Credit Agreement (the “TCFL Event of Default”).

          D.     Section 6.20 of the Credit Agreement provides that in no event shall James J. Cassidy cease to be chief executive officer. The Borrower has informed the Bank that James J. Cassidy is no longer chief executive officer of the Borrower, which constitutes an Event of Default under Section 7.1(c) of the Credit Agreement (the “CEO Event of Default” and together with the FCCR Event of Default and the TCFL Event of Default, the “Existing Defaults”).

AGREEMENT

          NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby covenant and agree to be bound as follows:
