     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.
