Item 1.01   Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement

In December 2004, our Board of Directors authorized Orthometrix, Inc. (the
"Company") to offer to the holders of certain promissory notes issued by the
Company the right to convert such notes into shares of the Company's common
stock, par value $.0005 per share (the "Common Stock"). In a letter dated
December 15, 2004, the Company offered the holders of such notes the right to
convert $2,145,000 of such notes into shares of Common Stock at $0.2813 per
share, which price is equal to 80% of the weighted average price of the Common
Stock during the period commencing November 15, 2004 and ending December 15,
2004. All of the promissory notes bore interest at the prime rate plus 1% and
matured at various intervals through January 2006. Each of the noteholders were
given the right to accept the Company's offer by returning such holder's note
(marked "cancelled") to the Company.

Holders of such notes elected to convert $1,545,000 of notes (the "Total
Conversion Amount") to Common Stock. Of the Total Conversion Amount, $1,235,000
were notes held by either officers, directors or affiliates of the Company. (Of
the remaining $600,000 of outstanding notes, $455,000 are still held by officers
and directors of the Company.)


Item 3.02   Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities

On January 17, 2005, the Company converted the entire principal amounts (i.e.,
$1,545,000) of the promissory notes described in Item 1.01 into 5,492,995 shares
of Common Stock. Such conversion was made effective as of December 31, 2004. The
issuance of the shares of Common Stock was made pursuant to the exemption from
registration provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
and Regulation D promulgated thereunder. Each noteholder has represented to us
that it is an "accredited investor", as defined in Regulation D.
