Hi,
There are no requirements for Sup IV to have a ROMON upgrade prior to the upgrade to 15.0.2
The release notes only lays this requirement for sup6-e and sup6l-e
"You must upgrade to at leaset ROMMON Release 12.2(44r)SG5 to run Cisco IOS Release 15.0(2)SG on the Supervisor Engine 6-E and Supervisor Engine 6L-E. 12.2(44r)SG9 is recommended."
Cisco however does recommends specific ROMMON image based on issues seen in the field such as say CSCed25996. This doesn't mean that you will be affected by this bug but a ROMMON upgrade does offer you a level of protection.
Release notes below-

Since the upgrade is intrusive its better to address both the IOS and ROMMON in one window.
