Only in rare instances but we exist in a World of competition, cooperation and 'Coopetition'. It is a fact of life as traditional boundaries blur and silos break down.

What is the business or operational benefits of this merger to me?

For Chyron News Customers: Enhanced Elections coverage with Hego easy to use Augmented Reality Products. Hego are experts in data binding and data visualization enabling automated data driven graphics creation and transitions. Hego in-studio Touchscreen products may elevate production values with interactivity.

For Chyron Sports Customers: Live Sports Production is Hego's primary focus, Hego 'Paint' telestration product is fully featured, fast and easy to use. Hego in-studio Touchscreen products elevate production values through interactivity. Hego Augmented Reality and Virtual Product Placement for team logos, advertising, 3D models. Hego is also world leader in image processing and player tracking in real-time

Does this mean Chyron are cutting back in non-sports markets? I have just invested in HyperX3.1, is this product range going to discontinue? Absolutely not. Non-Sports customers can expect enhanced Elections coverage with Hego easy to use Augmented Reality Products. Hego are experts in data binding and data visualization enabling automated data driven graphics creation and transitions.

Hego in-studio Touchscreen products will elevate production values with interactivity. Evolution of the HyperX product range and the entire Axis and BlueNet workflow will continue to be core to the product strategy of the combined company. Your investment is safe.

Last NAB Chyron exhibited with Ventuz and RT Software, is Chyron still reselling these applications?

Yes these are valued partners who bring complementary products to our graphics offering.

I haven't heard much about Chyron AXIS lately, is there an update?

Axis V2 is just now being deployed with a major broadcaster in the UK. It will be unveiled at NAB in April and deployed to our US customers in 2H 2013. V2 is a huge leap forward in performance and functionality, we are very excited about it and it is central to our future strategy.

I use Chyron for News, does this mean less focus on news development?

No, Chyron News customers can expect enhanced Elections coverage with Hego easy to use Augmented Reality Products. Hego are experts in data binding and data visualization enabling automated data driven graphics creation and transitions. Hego in-studio Touchscreen products will elevate News and Elections production values with interactivity. Chyron will continue to prioritize the evolution of its BlueNet and Axis workflow optimization solutions for News customers. We are intent upon remaining 'best of breed' in the News graphics field.

Product

What are the plans to integrate the Chyron and Hego products?

The integration roadmap is a priority. We expect to unveil a number of integrated solutions at NAB, watch this space!

Some of the Hego and Chyron products seem to do the same thing what's the plan?

The product overlap is negligible. All existing products will continue to be supported and evolved.

What is the future of Lyric?

Good. Lyric is at the core of Chyron's current product offering and central to our future plans.

Will I be able to use my Lyric templates in Hego?

This is certainly a key integration goal.

I have invested heavily in integrating Chyron APIs; will the Hego products support Chyron APIs?

This is certainly a key integration goal.

Is there a plan to use AXIS with Hego?

Yes. Axis has the potential to become a key data platform for Sports. Expect to see early integration with Axis V2 demonstrated at NAB in April.

I use Chyron in OBs and my operational staff is very familiar with Chyron. Will I have to completely retrain my staff to operate Hego?

Your staff will need to add to their existing skills as they would with any new application but Hego products are well conceived and easy to use. Install, training and customer support and service will all be provided by Chyron personnel in the normal way.

Can I run Lyric on my Hego hardware or Hego on my Chyron hardware?

This is a key integration objective

Chyron previously spoke about software only products, what's happening? Hego products are already 'unbundled', i.e. Software running on off the shelf PC's and workstations. Chyron will be showing 'unbundled' offerings at NAB.

Support

How will this change affect my day-to-day support?

No change.

Will I have to call different numbers for support?

No.

I have Hego and Chyron products, are the support contracts going to combine?

To Be Determined but it makes sense as the union of Chyron and Hego creates one unified Company.

Will the level of contracted support I currently receive from Chyron change as a result of this merger?

No.

Will out of hours support improve?

Yes because we will have more offices and support engineers across different time zones.

Services

I use Chyron services where will these now come from?

No change.

I use Hego services where will these now come from?

No change.

How will local services and training delivery work?

No change.

How can I be confident Chyron/Hego can scale services to deliver my project?

With greater critical mass the combined Company should be better able to quickly scale services to deliver a project.

Sales

Can I still buy Chyron through my existing dealer?

Yes, absolutely.

I have Hego and Chyron products, are the supply contracts going to combine?

To Be Determined but it makes sense as the union of Chyron and Hego creates one unified Company.

Are my discounts going to be the same?

Yes.

Will I keep the same account manager/dealer?

Yes.

I have some old Chyron products. Can I now trade these in against Hego products?

Interesting suggestion. There is no program currently in place but we'll keep it under review.

When will the deal close?

Between late April and mid-May. Chyron shareholders need to vote and approve the transaction so the timing is determined by the timing of the Proxy process associated with being a public Company.

What happens next?

NAB is right around the corner and presents us with a wonderful opportunity to present our strategy as a combined Company with exciting plans and a great story to tell. It is all about giving our customers the best possible tools to do their jobs and enhance their products.
