Re: Demand to Inspect Books and Records

Rx Investor Value Corporation ("RIVC") is the record and beneficial owner of at least 100 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of HealthWarehouse.com, Inc. ("HEWA"). Please refer Exhibit A hereto for evidence of such stockholdings.

Jeffrey Holtmeier and Rob Smyjunas are stockholders, officers, and authorized representatives of RIVC.

I.
Factual Background

We have reviewed the Company's definitive proxy statement, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on August 2, 2016, the Company's Form 8-K filed with the SEC on August 3, 2016, various individual Form 4's filed on July 29, 2016, and other relevant documents, wherein HEWA and the respective individuals reported transactions as follows:

(i)
On July 27, 2016, the Company issued over 4.2 million shares of the Company's common stock, or approximately 11.2% of the total then-outstanding shares of common stock, to insider officers and directors Lalit Dhadphale, Youssef Bennani, Joseph Savarino, Ned Siegel, and Dan Seliga (collectively, "Directors and Officers") pursuant to a coordinated and concurrent exercise by each Director and Officer of outstanding warrants and options, which issuance, after netting for shares disposed of pursuant to a cashless exercise, resulted in an increase of over 2.2 million shares held by the Directors and Officers.

(ii)
On July 28, 2016, the Company issued to Dellave Holdings, LLC ("Dellave"), an entity controlled by existing stockholder Tim Reilly, who is also a principal of the Company's senior lender Melrose Capital Partners, was previously affiliated with the majority holder of the Company's Series B Preferred Stock, MVI Holdings (which by virtue of such majority holdings is entitled to elect the Series B Board Member, currently Mr. Heimbrock) and currently affiliated with MVI though ownership positions retained by his children, acquired approximately 2.3 million shares of common stock (the "Dellave Shares"), or approximately 5.6% of the then-outstanding shares (i.e. after giving effect to the transactions described in (i), above) in exchange


for the extinguishment of approximately $700,000 of Company accounts payable held
by Dellave (the "Dellave Payables").

(iii)
As a result of the share issuances described above, the conversion price of the Series B Preferred Stock was re-set such that the common-share voting power of each share of Series B preferred stock increased from 11.39/share to 11.66/share, which in the case of the Series B preferred stock held by Mr. Heimbrock/MVI, increased the number of votes eligible to be cast by Mr. Heimbrock/MVI by over 133,000.

(iv)
As a result of the share issuances described above and the resulting increase in voting power of the Series B preferred stock, voting control held by the Company insiders, including the Directors and Officers and Mr. Reilly/Dellave, increased by over 4.6 million shares, or from approximately 22.4% of the outstanding voting power prior to the share issuances to approximately 29.8% of the voting power of shares held as of the Company's Record Date of July 29, 2016.

(v)
At the time of the above transactions, the Company was aware of RIVC's intent to nominate an alternate slate of directors at the upcoming September 2, 2016 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the "Annual Meeting"), as more fully set out in RIVC's letters to the Company dated June 27, 2016 and July 25, 2016.

(vi)
None of the transactions identified in items (i)- (iv), above, was publicly disclosed by the Company prior to the Record Date.

II.
 Purpose of the Demand to Inspect Books and Records (the "Demand")

We believe the share issuances described above represent an attempt to further entrench the existing members of the Board and may constitute a breach of the directors' fiduciary duties under Delaware law absent a "compelling justification" for an apparent manipulation of the stockholder franchise under the Schnell and Blasius line of precedents.

Further, as disclosed in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K, the Company has previously settled out trade payables for less than full value, and recognized resulting gain in its financial statements. We are investigating whether through this highly unusual transaction, completely uncoupled from any concurrent balance sheet recapitalization, Dellave was granted the opportunity to personally profit at the Company's and stockholders' expense by having shares issued to it at full value of the trade payables, yet retaining the benefit of any discounted settlement of the trade payables. Further, from the relevant agreement attached to the Form 8-K, it appears the Company has admitted its current liabilities exceed its assets, so we also are investigating whether such transaction impermissibly favors one creditor over other Company constituents in such situation, including in this case the current stockholders. We are investigating whether, if so, such transaction constitutes corporate waste, an impermissible conflict of interest, and/or a breach by all or some of the directors of their fiduciary duty owed to the Company and its stockholders. We intend to use the information obtained from this Demand to determine whether to: (1) pursue a direct or stockholder's derivative action in light of the above transactions,  (2) pursue an action for disgorgement, (3) seek redress from the Company for any harm caused to the Company's stockholders by virtue of the above transactions,


including, without limitation, the invalidation of votes cast at the Annual Meeting, and/or (4) make a case to the Company's stockholders for the removal of the members of the Company's Board of Directors in a proxy contest in light of the foregoing.

III.
