     Item 9 of the Initial Registration Statement is amended and restated in its
entirety as follows:

Item 9. Undertakings

     1. The Registrant hereby undertakes:

          (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being
     made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:

               (i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
          Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act");

               (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising
          after the effective date of this 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 this Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
          any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total
          dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was
          registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the
          estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of
          prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant
          to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price
          represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate
          offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee"
          table in the effective registration statement.

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

provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(i) and (1)(ii) do not apply if the
information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those
paragraphs is ; contained in periodic reports filed by the Company pursuant to
Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
(the "Exchange Act"), that are incorporated by reference in this 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 that time shall be deemed to be the
     initial bona fide offering thereof.



                                      -3-
<PAGE>

          (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.

     2. The 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.

     3. 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 Commission such indemnification is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore,
unenforceable.

                                   SIGNATURES

     Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the Registrant
certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of 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 Buena, New Jersey on the 30th day of May, 1997.

     Re: IGI, Inc. 1991 Stock Option Plan

Gentlemen:

     We have assisted in the preparation of a Registration Statement on Form S-8
(the "Registration Statement") to be filed on May 30, 1997 with the Securities
and Exchange Commission relating to 700,000 shares of the Common Stock, $.01 par
value per share ("Shares"), of IGI, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
"Company"), issuable under the IGI, Inc. 1991 Stock Option Plan (the "Plan").

     We have examined the Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws of the
Company, each as amended to date, and originals, or copies certified to our
satisfaction, of all pertinent records of the meetings of the directors and
stockholders of the Company, the Registration Statement and such other documents
relating to the Company as we have deemed material for the purposes of this
opinion.

     In our examination of the foregoing documents, we have assumed the
genuineness of all signatures and the authenticity of all documents submitted to
us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted
to us as certified or photostatic copies and the authenticity of the originals
of such latter documents.

     Based upon the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the Company is a
corporation duly incorporated and validly existing under the laws of the State
of Delaware and that the Company has duly authorized for issuance the Shares,
and the Shares, when issued and paid for in accordance with the terms of the
Plan and at a price per share in excess of the par value per share for such
Shares, will be legally issued, fully-paid and nonassessable.


                                      -7-

     We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion with the Securities and
Exchange Commission in connection with the Registration Statement.


                                            Very truly yours,


                                            HALE AND DORR LLP

                       CONSENT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

     We consent to the incorporation by reference in this Registration Statement
of IGI, Inc. on Form S-8 of our report, dated March 27, 1997, on our audits of
the consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule of IGI,
Inc. as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and for the years ended December 31,
1996, 1995 and 1994, which report is included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K
incorporated by reference into this Registration Statement.
