Item 1. Changes in Control of Registrant
(a) Not Applicable
(b) Currently, Sepa Technologies Ltd. Co.
hereinafter "Sepa") owns
14,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par
value $0.01 per share, (hereinafter
"Common Stock") of Chyron Corporation
(hereinafter "Registrant"). In
addition, Sepa owns all of the issued
and outstanding shares of stock of Pesa
Electronica, S.A. a Spanish corporation,
which in turns owns all of the issued and
outstanding shares of stock of Pesa, Inc.
a Delaware corporation (hereinafter
"Pesa"). Pesa owns 59,414,732 shares of
Common Stock, over which Sepa has ultimate
voting and investment control. As of May 2,
1995, there are issued and outstanding
87,460,479 shares of Common Stock.
Accordingly, Sepa in the aggregate
beneficially owns 73,914,732 of these issued
and outstanding shares, comprising
approximately 84% of the issued and
outstanding shares of Common Stock of the
Registrant.
On May 15, 1995, the Registrant received a
copy of the Second Amendment to the Schedule
13D of Sepa, dated May 11, 1995 and filed on
May 15, 1995 with the U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission pursuant to the
Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (hereinafter "Sepa Amended Schedule
13D"). Pursuant thereto, the Registrant
learned that on May 11 and May 12, 1995, Pesa
and Sepa, respectively, each executed an
agreement in principle (hereinafter
collectively "Agreements in Principles")
pursuant to which Pesa would sell to the MWW
Group or an affiliate thereof 59,414,732
shares of Common Stock, and Sepa would sell
to the MWW Group or an affiliate thereof
5,000,000 shares of Common Stock (hereinafter
collectively "Transactions"). Total
consideration would equal $32,367,071 payable
in cash and notes. The Transactions would be
contingent upon, among other things, (i) the
negotiation, execution, delivery and closing
of stock purchase agreements, and (ii) the
receipt of any governmental, judicial and
corporate approvals of the parties. Copies
of the Agreement in Principle are attached as
Exhibits 1 and 2 to the Sepa Amendment
Schedule 13D and are incorporated herein by
reference.

In the event that the Transaction were to
close pursuant to the Agreements in
Principle, the Registrant believes that (i)
Sepa would in the aggregate beneficially own
9,000,000 shares of Common Stock, all of
which would be directly owned by Sepa and
none by Pesa and which would comprise
approximately 10.3% of the issued and
outstanding shares of Common Stock, and (ii)
The MWW Group (and/or its affiliates
collectively) would own 64,614,732 shares of
Common Stock, which would comprise
approximately 73.7% of the issued and
outstanding shares of Common Stock.
In the event that the Transactions were to
close pursuant to the Agreements in
Principle, Sepa and Pesa anticipate that The
MWW Group would obtain control of the
Registrant's board of directors.
Pursuant to the Agreements in Principle, a
condition to closing the Transactions would
be Sepa's agreement to vote its remaining
9,000,000 shares of Common Stock at the
direction of The MWW Group so long as Sepa
owns said shares.
Pursuant to the Agreements in Principle, a
condition to closing the Transactions would
be Sepa's agreement to give The MWW Group a
right of first refusal with regard to any
future sale of the remaining 9,000,000 shares
of Common Stock beneficially owned by Sepa.
