ITEM 4.  DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES.
        
Not applicable.


ITEM 5.  INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL.
 
Not applicable. 

ITEM 6.  INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

The Registrant's certificate of incorporation, as restated (the
"Certificate of Incorporation"), provides that the personal
liability of a director be eliminated to the fullest extent
permitted by the provisions of paragraph (b) of Section 402 of
the Business Corporation Law of the State of New York, as the
same may be amended and supplemented.

Article VII of the Company's by-laws (the "By-Laws") provides
for the indemnification by the Company of any person to the
full extent permitted, and in the manner provided, by the New
York Business Corporation Law, as the same now exists or may
hereafter be amended. 

Section 402(b) of the New York Business Corporation Law
provides that a certificate of incorporation may set forth a
provision eliminating or limiting the personal liability of
directors to the corporation or its shareholders for damages
for any breach of duty in such capacity, provided that no such
provision shall eliminate or limit:
    
(1) the liability of any director if a judgment or other final
adjudication adverse to him establishes that his acts or
omissions were in bad faith or involved intentional misconduct
or a knowing violation of law or that he personally gained in
fact a financial profit or other advantage to which he was not
legally entitled or that his acts violated Section 719, or
    
(2) the liability of any director for any act or omission prior
to the adoption of a provision authorized by this paragraph.  
                 
Sections 721 through 725 of the New York Business Corporation
Law provide that New York corporations shall have the power,
under specified circumstances, to indemnify their directors,
officers, employees and agents in connection with actions,
suits or proceedings brought against them by a third party or
in the right of the corporation by reason of the fact that they
were or are such directors, officers, employees or agents,
against expenses incurred in such actions, suits or
proceedings.

Section 721 of the New York Business Corporation Law permits a
corporation to enter into agreements with its directors and
officers providing for indemnification for actions, suits or
proceedings brought against them by a third party or in the
right of the corporation, by reason of the fact that they were
or are such directors or officers, against expenses incurred in
such actions, suits or proceedings, provided, however, that no
such indemnification may be made to or on behalf of any
director or officer if a judgment or other final adjudication
adverse to the director or officer establishes that his acts
were committed in bad faith or were the result of active and
deliberate dishonesty and were material to the cause of action
so adjudicated, or that he personally gained in fact a
financial profit or other advantage to which he was not legally
entitled.

Under Section 722(a), the corporation may indemnify any person
made, or threatened to be made, a party to an action or
proceeding (other than an action by or in the right of the
corporation to procure a judgment in its favor) whether civil
or criminal, including an action by or in the right of any
other corporation of any type or kind, domestic or foreign, or
any partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or
other enterprise, which any director or officer of the
corporation served in any capacity at the request of the
corporation, by reason of the fact that he, his testator or
intestate was a director or officer of the corporation, or
served such other corporation, partnership, joint venture,
trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise in any
capacity.  Indemnification may be given for judgments, fines,
amounts paid in settlement and reasonable expenses, including
attorneys' fees actually and necessarily incurred as a result
of such action or proceeding, or any appeal therein, if such
director or officer is shown to have acted in good faith, for
a purpose which he reasonably believed to be in the best
interests of the corporation, and, in criminal actions or
proceedings, in addition, had no reasonable cause to believe
such conduct was unlawful.

Under Section 722(c), the corporation may indemnify any person
made, or threatened to be made, a party to an action by or in
the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor
by reason of the fact that he, his testator or intestate, is or
was a director or officer of the corporation, or is or was
serving at the request of the corporation as a director or
officer of any other corporation of any type or kind, domestic
or foreign, of any partnership, joint venture, trust, employee
benefit plan or other enterprise, against amounts paid in
settlement and reasonable expenses, including attorneys' fees,
actually and necessarily incurred by him in connection with the
defense or settlement of such action, or in connection with an
appeal therein, if such director or officer acted, in good
faith, for a purpose which he reasonably believed to be in, or
in the case of service for any other corporation or any
partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or
other enterprise, not opposed to, the best interests of the
corporation, except that no indemnification under this
paragraph shall be made in respect of (1) a threatened action,
or a pending action which is settled or otherwise disposed of,
or (2) any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall
have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation, unless and
only to the extent that the court in which the action was
brought, or if no action was brought, any court of competent
jurisdiction, determines upon application that, in view of all
the circumstances of the case, the person is fairly and
reasonably entitled to indemnity for such portion of the
settlement amount and expenses as the court deems proper.


Indemnification may be by court order under Section 724 or by
approval of the corporation in the manner set forth in the
statute.  Under Section 723(a), success on the merits or
otherwise in the defense of a civil or criminal action or
proceeding of the character described in Section 722 entitles
the director or officer to indemnification as authorized in
Section 722.  If not wholly successful, indemnification shall
be made by the corporation, unless ordered by a court order
under Section 724, only if a quorum of the board, not including
parties to the action, finds that the standard of conduct set
forth in Section 722 or established pursuant to Section 721 has
been met.  If a quorum cannot be obtained, or even if
obtainable, a quorum of disinterested directors so direct,
approval may be by the board upon (i) the opinion of
independent legal counsel that indemnification is proper in the
circumstances or (ii) a determination by the shareholders that
the applicable standard of conduct set forth in such sections
has been met by the director or officer.  Under Section 723(c),
expenses incurred in defending a civil or criminal action or
proceeding may be paid by the corporation in advance of the
final disposition of an action upon receipt of an undertaking
by or on behalf of such director or officer to repay such
amount as, and to the extent, required by Section 725(a).  

Under Section 724, if the corporation fails to provide
indemnification, the director or officer may apply to the
court, and may receive indemnification to the extent authorized
under Section 722 and paragraph (a) of Section 723.  Where
indemnification is sought by judicial action, the court may
allow a person such reasonable expense, including attorneys'
fees, during the pendency of the litigation as are necessary in
connection with that person's defense, if the court finds that
the defendant has by their pleadings or during the course of
the litigation raised grave issues of fact or law.  All
expenses incurred in defending an action or proceeding which
are advanced by the corporation under Section 723 or allowed by
a court under Section 724 shall be repaid in case the person
receiving such advancement is ultimately found not to be
entitled to indemnification, or whose indemnification is
granted, to the extent the expenses so advanced by the
corporation or allowed by the court exceed the indemnification
to which he is entitled.  Indemnification may not be made if it
is inconsistent with the corporation's certificate of
incorporation, by-laws, board resolutions, shareholder
resolutions, an agreement or other corporation action, in
effect at the time of the accrual of the alleged cause of
action in which the expenses were incurred, which prohibits or
otherwise limits indemnification; or the indemnification would
be inconsistent with a condition imposed by the court in
approving a settlement.

             (included in Exhibit 5.1).


ITEM 9.  UNDERTAKINGS.

A.  To Update Annually

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes

(1) other than as provided in the proviso to item 512(a) of
Regulation S-K, to file, during any period in which offers or
sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this
Registration Statement:

(a) to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of
the Securities Act, 

(b) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising
after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the
most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which,
individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental
change in the information set forth in the Registration
Statement, and

(c) to include any material information with respect to the
plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the
Registration Statement or any material change to such
information in the Registration Statement;

provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(a) and (1)(b) of this
section shall not apply if the information required to be
included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is
contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the
Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section
15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are
incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement; 

(2) that for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be
deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the
securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities
at the time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide
offering thereof; and 

(3) to remove from registration by means of a post-effective
amendment any of the securities being registered which remain
unsold at the termination of the offering.

B.  Incorporation of Subsequent Securities
    Exchange Act of 1934 Documents by Reference

The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes
of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each
filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 
13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where
applicable, each filing of an employee  benefit plan's annual
report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is
incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall
be deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the
securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities
at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide
offering thereof.

C.  Indemnification of Officers and Directors

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and
controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing
provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that
in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the
Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.  In the event
that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities
(other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred
or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the
Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or
proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or
controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its
counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent,
submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question as
to whether such indemnification by it is against public policy
as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the
final adjudication of such issue.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, the Registrant certifies that it has reasonable
grounds to believe that it meets all the requirements for
filing on Form S-8 and has duly caused this Registration
Statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned,
thereunto duly authorized, in the County of Suffolk, State of
New York on the 20th day of March, 1996.

Gentlemen:

You have requested our opinion in connection with a
Registration Statement on Form S-8 to be filed by Chyron
Corporation (the "Company") with the Securities and Exchange

As counsel for the Company, we have examined such records,
