ITEM 5.  OTHER EVENTS

PRIVATE PLACEMENT OF SERIES D CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK

      On May 23, 2000, Henley Healthcare, Inc., a Texas corporation (the
"Company"), sold in a private placement 2,500 shares of the Company's Series D
Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $.10 per share (the "Series D Shares"),
convertible into shares of the Company's common stock, par value $.01 per share
(the "Common Stock")for an aggregate purchase price of $2,500,000. The
purchasers were The Endeavour Capital Fund S.A., Esquire Trade & Invest, Inc.,
and Celeste Trust Reg (collectively, the "Purchasers"), each of which are
accredited investors. In connection with the acquisition of the Series D Shares,
the Purchasers also were issued warrants to acquire 200,000 shares of Common
Stock. The warrants expire May 31, 2005 and have an exercise price of $1.99 per
share. An additional 1,000 Series D shares for a purchase price of $1,000,000
will be paid by the Purchasers upon notice by the Company to the escrow agent
specifying the additional closing date (the "Additional Closing"); PROVIDED
HOWEVER, that the Additional Closing will not occur until the later of (i) 60
days after the effective date of the registration statement covering the resale
of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Series D
Shares and exercise of the warrants issued to the Purchasers and the placement
agent as described herein or (ii) 10 days after the notice is delivered. The
Series D Shares bear a 6% cumulative dividend payable to the holders of the
Series D Shares on the date of each conversion into shares of Common Stock. The
dividends shall be payable in cash or in Common Stock at the Company's option.
The Series D Shares are convertible into the Company's Common Stock at the
lesser of (i) 105% of the average closing bid price for the Company's Common
Stock as reported by Bloomberg L.P. for the 10 consecutive trading days
immediately proceeding the initial issuance of the Series D shares(the "Fixed
Conversion Price"), or (ii) the amount obtained by multiplying .8 by the average
closing bid price for the Company's Common Stock as reported by Bloomberg L.P.
for the lowest three trading days during the period beginning on the fifteenth
day prior to the conversion date for such conversion and ending on such
conversion date.

      The Series D Shares have no voting rights and rank junior to all of the
Company's previously issued shares of Series A, Series B and Series C Preferred
Stock. The Company, at its option, may force the conversion of the Series D
Shares under certain circumstances, including if the market price of the Common
Stock exceeds 300% of the Fixed Conversion Price. In addition, the Series D
Shares are redeemable at the holder's option if, among other things, the Company
is unable to issue shares of its Common Stock upon conversion of the Series D
Shares due to Nasdaq regulations. The Series D Shares have a liquidation
preference of $1,000 per share, plus the accrued and unpaid dividends thereon
through the date of final distribution.


      The placement agent, Union Atlantic LC and Union Atlantic Capital L.C.,
received a commission of 11% which was paid by the issuance of 275 Series D
Shares, as well as warrants to acquire 125,000 shares at a price equal to 110%
of the warrants issued to the Purchasers with an expiration date of May 31,
2004. The placement agent also will be entitled to an 11% commission on any
amounts received at the Additional Closing.

      In addition, The Endeavour Capital Fund S.A. was issued a warrant to
acquire 50,000 shares of Common Stock in connection with the $200,000 bridge
loan provided by it prior to the private placement. The warrant expires May 1,
2005 and has an exercise price of $2.00 per share. The bridge loan was repaid
out of proceeds received from the sale of Series D Shares.

      Pursuant to the terms of the Statement of Designation of Rights and
Preferences of the Series D Preferred Stock, the Company is not required to
issue shares of its Common Stock on conversion of the Preferred Stock unless
such shares have been approved for listing on the exchange or market on which
the Common Stock is trading. In such an event, until the Company obtains the
requisite shareholder approval, the Company is not obligated to issue shares in
excess of the amount of shares which does not require shareholder approval,
which under the Nasdaq SmallCap rule is 20% of the Company's outstanding Common
Stock. Therefore, until the Company receives shareholder approval, the Series D
Shares will not be convertible into more than the number of shares of Common
Stock

                                      2
<PAGE>
which may be listed under the Nasdaq SmallCap Rules without obtaining
shareholder approval. The Company has agreed to seek shareholder approval for
the issuance of the Series D Shares at the next meeting of its shareholders in
order to eliminate this limit on the shares of Common Stock issuable on
conversion of the Series D Shares.

AMENDED AND RESTATED LOAN AGREEMENT

      On May 23, 2000, the Company entered into a Second Amended and Restated
Loan Agreement with Comerica Bank-Texas, a Texas banking association (the
"Amended Loan Agreement"). The Amended Loan Agreement is effective as of March
3, 2000. The Amended Loan Agreement provides for (i) a revolving loan ("Line of
Credit"), with permitted borrowings of up to $5,200,000 through April 1, 2002
and (ii) three term loans in the original amounts of $1,430,000 ("Term Note A"),
$1,616,000 ("Term Note B") and $1,260,000 ("Term Note C"). Term Note A, Term
Note B and Term Note C (collectively, the "Term Notes") are payable in monthly
installments of $23,833, $7,000 and $8,978, respectively, plus interest through
September 30, 2002, April 30, 2011 and February 12, 2013, respectively. Interest
on the Line of Credit and three term loans is payable monthly and is calculated
at a rate equal to the Prime Rate (9.5% at May 23, 2000) plus one and one-half
percent per annum, until the respective maturity dates at which the interest
payable for such note will be the maximum rate allowed under applicable law.
Term Note B is callable by Comerica beginning on April 1, 2002 and each
anniversary thereafter. All of the borrowings from Comerica are secured by
substantially all the assets of the Company. The total amount available for
borrowing under the Line of Credit is the lesser of (i) $5,200,000 and (ii) a
variable borrowing base calculated based on the amount and type of accounts
receivable and the value of certain items of inventory. Prior to the Company
entering into the Amended Loan Agreement, it had no amounts available for
borrowing under the Line of Credit and its borrowings exceeded its borrowing
base. As of the closing date of the Amended Loan Agreement, approximately
$75,000 was available under the Line of Credit and the Company had approximately
$1,000,000 cash.

      In addition, the Amended Loan Agreement relaxed a number of affirmative
covenants, negative covenants and financial covenants with which the Company
must comply, including reducing the minimum tangible net worth test and
eliminating the leverage ratio, the fixed charge coverage ratio and the current
ratio.
