MELVILLE, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 5, 2001

Chyron Corporation (NYSE:CHY), a leading provider of broadcast technology, today announced that it has received notification that its stock should be removed from the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) list because it is not in compliance with the revised continued listing requirements.

Chyron will appeal the decision within ten business days. The Company's shares will continue to trade on the NYSE pending a decision on the appeal by a Committee of the Board of Directors of the NYSE. Should the appeal be denied, Chyron will be eligible to trade on the OTC Bulletin Board.

In July 1999 the NYSE revised the minimum requirements for continued listing by eliminating the net tangible asset requirement of $12 million and replacing it with a stockholders' equity of $50 million and global market capitalization to $50 million from $12 million. The Company was allotted 18 months to comply with the revised listing requirements that required Chyron to more than double its shareholders' equity. During this period the Company had two successful fund-raising initiatives, however, was unable to meet the modified requirements.

Roger Henderson, President and CEO of Chyron, said, "We are, of course, disappointed that the NYSE raised its listing requirements to a level that we have been unable to meet. However, we do not believe this is a reflection of our underlying business strengths and strategy. We continue to take action to ensure that our core businesses in the USA and Europe provide a solid foundation for the corporation while developing opportunities in new media markets. We look forward to keeping our shareholders informed of our progress on those initiatives."
