to be Held on May 16, 2001

Approximate Mailing Date of Proxy Statement and Form of Proxy: April 6, 2001.

INFORMATION CONCERNING VOTE

General

This Proxy Statement and the enclosed form of proxy are furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the Board of Directors of Chyron Corporation, a New York corporation (hereinafter, the "Company"), for use at the annual meeting of shareholders to be held on Wednesday, May 16, 2001, at 9:30 a.m., and at any and all adjournments thereof (the "Annual Meeting"), with respect to the matters referred to in the accompanying notice. The Annual Meeting will be held at the Metropolitan Hotel, located at 569 Lexington Avenue at East 51^st Street, New York, NY 10022.

Voting Rights and Outstanding Shares

Only shareholders of record at the close of business on March 26, 2001 are entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting. At the close of business on March 1, 2001, 39,502,879 shares of Common Stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), of the Company were issued and outstanding. Each share of Common Stock entitles the record holder thereof to one (1) vote on all matters properly brought before the Annual Meeting.

Revocability of Proxies

A shareholder who executes and mails a proxy in the enclosed return envelope may revoke such proxy at any time prior to its use by notice in writing to the Secretary of the Company, at the above address, or by revocation in person at the Annual Meeting. Unless so revoked, the shares represented by duly executed proxies received by the Company prior to the Annual Meeting will be presented at the Annual Meeting and voted in accordance with the shareholder's instructions marked thereon. If no instructions are marked thereon, proxies will be voted (1) FOR the election as directors of the nominees named below under the caption "ELECTION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS." In their discretion, the proxies are authorized to consider and vote upon such matters incident to the conduct of the Annual Meeting and upon such other business matters or proposals as may properly come before the Annual Meeting that the Board of Directors of the Company does not know a reasonable time prior to this solicitation will be presented at the Annual Meeting.

Voting Procedures

All votes shall be tabulated by the inspector of elections appointed for the Annual Meeting, who shall separately tabulate affirmative and negative votes, abstentions and broker-dealer non-votes. The presence of a quorum for the Annual Meeting, defined here as a majority of the votes entitled to be cast at the Annual Meeting, is required. Votes withheld from director nominees and abstentions will be counted in determining whether a quorum has been reached. Broker-dealer non-votes are not counted for quorum purposes.

Assuming a quorum has been reached, a determination must be made as to the results of the vote on each matter submitted for shareholder approval. Director nominees must receive a plurality of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting, which means that a vote withheld from a particular nominee or nominees will not affect the outcome of the Annual Meeting.

ELECTION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

The Board of Directors has nominated eight (8) persons to be elected as Directors at the Annual Meeting and to hold office until the next annual meeting or until their successors have been duly elected and qualified. It is intended that each proxy received by the Company will be voted FOR the election, as directors of the Company, of the nominees listed below, unless authority is withheld by the shareholder executing such proxy. Shares may not be voted cumulatively. Each of such nominees has consented to being nominated and to serve as a director of the Company if elected. If any nominee should become unavailable for election or unable to serve, it is intended that the proxies will be voted for a substitute nominee designated by the Board of Directors. At the present time, the Board of Directors knows of no reason why any nominee might be unavailable for election or unable to serve. The proxies cannot be voted for a greater number of persons than the number of nominees named herein.

	Number of	Percent of
	Securities	Total Options

	Options	Employees in	Price	Expiration
	Granted	Fiscal Year	Per Share	Date	Fair Value
Roger Henderson	90,000	6.7%	$3.375	5/24/10	$1.58

	15,000	1.1%	2.188	10/25/10	.99

All options reported above were awarded under the Incentive Compensation Plan. The Company has not granted any stock appreciation rights. Pursuant to the terms of the Plan, the exercise price per share for all options is the closing price of the Common Stock as reported on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") on the date of grant. The options reported above become exercisable in three equal installments, on the first, second and third year anniversaries of their date of grant.

"Fair Value" is determined under the Black-Scholes pricing model, a widely recognized method of determining the present value of options. The factors used in this model are as follows: dividend yield - 0.0%; volatility -50%; risk-free rate of return - 6.04% and option terms of 4 years. The actual value, if any, an executive officer may realize will depend on the extent to which conditions as to exercisability of the option are satisfied and the excess of the stock price over the exercise price on the date the option is exercised. There is no assurance that the value realized by an executive officer will be consistent with the value estimated by the Black-Scholes model. The estimated values under the model are based on assumptions regarding interest rates, stock price volatility and future dividend yield. The model is used for valuing market traded options and is not directly applicable to valuing stock options granted under the Incentive Compensation Plan which cannot be transferred.

Pension Plans

The Company maintains a domestic, qualified non-contributory defined benefit pension plan (the "U.S. Pension Plan") for all employees of Chyron Corporation. Under the U.S. Pension Plan, a participant retiring at normal retirement age receives a pension benefit equal to the sum of: (i) 25% of his or her average monthly total compensation up to the level of social security covered compensation plus 38% of such earnings in excess of social security covered earnings for years of service prior to July 1, 1998 and (ii) 32% of his or her average monthly base compensation up to the level of social security covered compensation plus 48% of such earnings in excess of social security covered earnings for years of service subsequent to July 1, 1998. A participant's average monthly compensation is his or her monthly compensation averaged during the five consecutive years during the ten-year period prior to his or her termination that produces the highest average monthly compensation.

Participants in the U.S. Pension Plan vest according to the following schedule:

Employees Hired Prior to July 1, 1998		Employees Hired on or After July 1, 1998
Years of Service	Amount Vested	Years of Service	Amount Vested
Less than 2	0%	Less than 5	0%
2	20%	5 or more	100%
3	40%
4	60%
5 or more	100%

As of December 31, 2000, the number of years of service for the named executive officers is as follows: Ms. Johnston, 2 years and Mr. Paul, 3 years.

The following table shows the aggregate annual benefits under the U.S. Pension Plan as now in effect that would be currently payable to participants retiring at age sixty-five on a single-life basis under various assumptions as to salary and years of service. Benefits under the U.S. Pension Plan are payable in the form of a monthly, lifetime annuity commencing on the later of normal retirement age or the participant's date of retirement, or, at the participant's election, in a lump sum or installment payments. The amounts shown reflect the level of social security covered compensation for a participant reaching age 65 in 2000. In addition, the participant is entitled to receive social security benefits. The Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 and the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, limit the annual retirement benefit that may be paid out of funds accumulated under a qualified pension plan. The current maximum annual benefit payable under the U.S. Pension Plan is $130,000. This maximum is proportionately reduced for years of plan participation less than ten. Compensation in excess of $170,000 may not be taken into account in the determination of benefits under the U.S. Pension Plan.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS
AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION

Mr. Wellesley-Wesley has an arrangement with the Company, pursuant to which he provides services in connection with fundraising, potential strategic alliances, mergers and business opportunities for the Company, primarily in Europe. During 2000 he received approximately $427,000 as compensation and benefits for such services.

COMPENSATION AND STOCK OPTION COMMITTEE
REPORT ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

It is the duty of the Compensation Committee to develop, administer, and review the Company's compensation plans, programs and policies, to monitor the performance and compensation of executive officers and other key employees and to make appropriate recommendations and reports to the Board of Directors relating to executive compensation.

The Company's compensation program is intended to motivate, retain and attract management, linking incentives to financial performance and enhanced shareholder value. The program's fundamental philosophy is to tie the amount of compensation "at risk" for an executive to his or her contribution to the Company's success in achieving superior performance objectives.

The compensation program currently consists of two components: (1) a base salary and (2) the potential for an annual cash bonus of up to 50% of base salary for the Chief Executive Officer, up to 30% for the executive Vice President and between 25%-40% of base salary for the other executive officers, based upon the satisfaction of certain performance criteria set annually by the Compensation Committee for each position. The criteria may relate to overall Company performance, the individual executive's performance or a combination of the two, depending upon the particular position at issue. The second component constitutes the "at risk" portion of the compensation program. Additionally, employees (including executive officers) are eligible to receive awards pursuant to the Company's Incentive Compensation Plan.

All amounts paid or accrued during fiscal year 2000 under the above-described compensation program are included in the table found in the section captioned "Summary Compensation Table."

REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE

The following Report of the Audit Committee does not constitute soliciting material and should not be deemed filed or incorporated by reference into any other Company filing under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, except to the extent the Company specifically incorporates this Report by reference therein.

During fiscal 2000, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors adopted a charter, which is reproduced in the appendix to this proxy statement. The complete text reflects standards set forth in new SEC regulations and New York Stock Exchange rules.

As set forth in more detail in the charter, the Audit Committee's primary responsibilities fall into three broad categories:

• first, the Committee is charged with monitoring the preparation of quarterly and annual financial reports by the Company's management, including discussions with management and the Company's outside auditors about draft annual financial statements and key accounting and reporting matters;
• second, the Committee is responsible for matters concerning the relationship between the Company and its outside auditors, including recommending their appointment or removal, reviewing the scope of their audit services and related fees, as well as any other services being provided to the Company; and determining whether the outside auditors are independent (based in part on the annual letter provided to the Company pursuant to Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1);
• third, the Committee oversees management's implementation of effective systems of internal controls, including review of policies relating to legal and regulatory compliance, ethics and conflicts of interests.

The Committee has implemented procedures to ensure that during the course of each fiscal year it devotes the attention that it deems necessary or appropriate to each of the matters assigned to it under the Committee's charter. To carry out its responsibilities, the Committee met three (3) times during fiscal 2000.

In overseeing the preparation of the Company's annual financial statements, the Committee met with both management and the Company's outside auditors to review and discuss the results of the audit and significant accounting issues. Management advised the Committee that all financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and the Committee discussed the statements with both management and the outside auditors. The Committee's review included discussion with the outside auditors of matters required to be discussed pursuant to Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61 (Communication With Audit Committees).

With respect to the Company's outside auditors, the Committee, among other things, discussed with PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, matters relating to its independence, including the disclosures made to the Committee as required by the Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1 (Independence Discussions with Audit Committees).

On the basis of these reviews and discussions, the Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the Board approve the inclusion of the Company's audited financial statements in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2000, for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

STOCK PERFORMANCE CHART

The following chart compares the yearly percentage change in the cumulative total shareholder return on the Common Stock during the five fiscal years ended December 31, 2000 with the cumulative total return on the Russell 2000 Index and a peer group selected by the Company consisting of businesses engaged in supplying equipment to the broadcast and video industry. The comparison assumes $100 was invested on December 31, 1995 in the Common Stock of the Company and in each of the foregoing indices and assumes reinvestment of dividends.

The businesses included in the Company-selected peer group are: Avid Technology Inc., Carlton Communications Plc, Pinnacle Systems Inc., Philips Electronics NV, and Sony Corp. The returns of each component issuer in the foregoing group have been weighted according to the respective issuer's stock market capitalization.

On February 7, 1997, the Company effected a one-for-three reverse stock split of its Common Stock. The table above reflects the one-for-three reverse stock split. On March 1, 2001, 39,502,879 shares of Common Stock were outstanding.

Unless otherwise indicated in the footnotes to the table and subject to the community property laws where applicable, each of the shareholders named in this table has sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares shown as beneficially owned by him/her.

INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

The Company has entered into indemnity agreements with each of its directors and executive officers. The indemnity agreements provide that directors and executive officers (the "Indemnities") will be indemnified and held harmless to the fullest possible extent permitted by law including against all expenses (including attorney's fees), judgments, fines, penalties and settlement amounts paid or incurred by them in any action, suit or proceeding on account of their services as director, officer, employee, agent or fiduciary of the Company or as directors, officers, employees or agents of any other company or entity at the request of the Company. The Company will not, however, be obligated pursuant to the agreements to indemnify or advance expenses to an indemnified party with respect to any action (1) in which a judgment adverse to the Indemnitee establishes (a) that the Indemnitee's acts were committed in bad faith or were the result of active and deliberate dishonesty and, in either case, were material, or (b) that the Indemnitee personally gained in fact a financial profit or other advantage to which he or she was not legally entitled, or (2) which the Indemnitee initiated, prior to a change in control of the company, against the Company or any director or officer of the Company unless the Company consented to the initiation of such claim. The indemnity agreements require an Indemnitee to reimburse the Company for expenses advanced only to the extent that it is ultimately determined that the director or executive officer is not entitled, under Section 723(a) of the New York Business Corporation Law and the indemnity agreement, to indemnification for such expenses.

SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS

A shareholder of the Company who wishes to present a proposal for action at the Company's 2002 Annual Meeting of Shareholders must submit such proposal to the Company, in accordance with Rule 14-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. To be eligible for inclusion such proposal must be received by the Company, no later than December 8, 2001.

COST OF SOLICITATION OF PROXIES

The solicitation of proxies pursuant to this Proxy Statement is made by and on behalf of the Company's Board of Directors. The cost of such solicitation will be paid by the Company. Such cost includes the preparation, printing and mailing of the Notice of Annual Meeting, Proxy Statement, Annual Report and form of proxy. The solicitation will be conducted principally by mail, although directors, officers and employees of the Company (at no additional compensation) may solicit proxies personally or by telephone or telegram. Arrangements will be made with brokerage houses and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for the forwarding of proxy material to the beneficial owners of shares held on record by such fiduciaries, and the Company may reimburse such persons for their reasonable expenses in so doing.

INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

Representatives of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (PwC), which audited the Company's 1998, 1999 and 2000 financial statements, are expected to be present at the Annual Meeting. They will have the opportunity to make a statement if they so desire, and they are expected to be available to respond to appropriate questions. For fiscal 2000, aggregate audit fees, including the review of interim quarterly financial statements, paid to PwC were $246,000 and all other fees were $142,000. The other fees included fees for audit-related services of $64,000 and fees for non-audit services of $78,000. Audit-related services generally include fees for pension and statutory audits, business acquisitions, accounting consultations and Securities and Exchange Commission filings. None of the non-audit services fees were for financial information systems design and implementation. The audit committee has considered whether the provision of audit-related and non-audit related services is compatible with maintaining PwC's independence.

SECTION 16(a) REPORTING COMPLIANCE

Section 16(a) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 requires the Company's directors and executive officers, and persons who beneficially own more than ten percent (10%) of a registered class of the Company's equity securities, to file with the SEC and The New York Stock Exchange reports of ownership and changes in ownership of Common Stock and other equity securities of the Company. Executive officers, directors and greater than ten percent (10%) beneficial owners are required by SEC regulation to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) reports that they file. Based solely upon a review of the copies of such reports furnished to the Company or written representations that no other reports were required, the Company believes that, during fiscal year 2000, all filing requirements applicable to its executive officers, directors, and greater than ten percent (10%) beneficial owners were met.

ANNUAL REPORT ON FORM 10-K

The Company will provide without charge to each person whose proxy is solicited, upon the written request of any such person, a copy of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC, for the period January 1, 2000 through December 31, 2000, including the financial statements and the schedules thereto. The Company does not undertake to furnish without charge copies of all exhibits to its Form 10-K, but will furnish any exhibit upon the payment of Twenty Cents ($0.20) per page or a minimum charge of Five Dollars ($5.00). Such written requests should be directed to Ms. Margaret Roed, Chyron Corporation, 5 Hub Drive, Melville, New York 11747. Each such request must set forth a good faith representation that, as of March 26, 2001, the person making the request was a beneficial owner of securities entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. The Company incorporates herein the Annual Report by reference.
