Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers
Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware
provides that a corporation has the power to indemnify a director, officer,
employee or agent of the corporation and certain other persons serving at the
request of the corporation in related capacities against amounts paid and
expenses incurred in connection with an action or proceeding to which he is or
is threatened to be made a party by reason of such position, if such person
shall have acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in
or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, in any criminal
proceeding, if such person had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was
unlawful, provided that, in the case of actions brought by or in the right of
the corporation, no indemnification shall be made with respect to any matter as
to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation
unless and only to the extent that the adjudicating court determines that such
indemnification is proper under the circumstances. The Registrant's Certificate
of Incorporation, as amended, provides that the Registrant shall indemnify any
and all persons whom it shall have the power to indemnify under Section 145 to
the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law.
The Registrant has a directors and officers liability policy that insures
the Registrant's officers and directors against certain liabilities.
Item 7. Exemption from Registration Claimed
Not applicable.
Item 8. Exhibits
The Exhibit Index immediately preceding the exhibits is incorporated herein

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;
-3-
<PAGE>
(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 with or furnished to the
Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of 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) 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.

<PAGE>
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. 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 whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of
such issue.

Re: IGI, Inc. 1999 Stock Incentive Plan
Gentlemen:
We have assisted in the preparation of a Registration Statement on Form S-8
(the "Registration Statement") filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(the "Commission") relating to the registration of 1,200,000 shares of the
Common Stock, $.01 par value per share ("Shares"), of IGI, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the "Company"), issuable under the IGI, Inc. 1999 Stock Incentive
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, certificates of public
officials 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, the legal capacity of all individual signatories,
and the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the
conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as copies and
the authenticity of the originals of such latter documents.
We express no opinion herein as to the laws of any state or jurisdiction
other than the federal laws of the United States, the state laws of the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts, and the Delaware General Corporation Law statute.
To the extent that the laws of any other jurisdiction govern any of the matters
as to which we are opining herein, we have assumed that such laws are identical
to the state laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, and we are expressing no
opinion herein as to whether such assumption is reasonable or correct.
<PAGE>
Based upon the foregoing, we are of the opinion 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 validly issued, fully-paid and
nonassessable.
It is understood that this opinion is to be used only in connection with
the offer and sale of the Shares while the Registration Statement is in effect.
This opinion is based upon currently existing statutes, rules, regulations
and judicial decisions, and we disclaim any obligation to advise you of any
change in any of these sources of law or subsequent legal or factual
developments which might affect any matters or opinions set forth herein. Please
note that we are opining as to the matters expressly set forth herein, and no
opinion should be inferred as to any other matters. This opinion is solely for
your benefit in connection with the filing of the Registration Statement and may
not be quoted or relied upon by any other person or used for any other purpose,
without our prior written consent.
We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion with the Commission as an
exhibit to the Registration Statement in accordance with the requirements of
Item 601(b)(5) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the "Securities Act"). In giving such consent, we do not hereby admit that we
are in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the
Securities Act or the rules and regulations of the Commission.
Very truly yours,
/s/ Hale and Dorr LLP
HALE AND DORR LLP
