The following information concerning percentages of ownership of outstanding
shares of common stock is based on a total of 89,000,000 shares reported to be
outstanding by Chyron Corporation at September 30, 1995.

As of December 31, 1995, WPGVA, Enterprise, CDA IV and CDA Overseas owned of
record 2,151,195 shares, 2,588,322 shares, 10,416,822 shares and 2,511,862
shares, respectively, of Chyron Corporation common stock ("Common Stock").  The
shares owned by WPGVA and Enterprise may be deemed to be beneficially owned,
within the meaning of Rule 13d-3, by WPGVP, the shares owned by CDA IV may be
deemed to be beneficially owned by PEP and the shares owned by CDA Overseas may
be deemed to be beneficially owned by Overseas.  Mr. Greer, a general partner of
WPGVP and PEP and a Director of Overseas, may be deemed to be the beneficial
owner of all of the above described shares within the meaning of Rule 13d-3.

Accordingly, by reason of the provisions of Rule 13d-3, as of December 31, 1995,
Philip Greer may be deemed to own beneficially 17,669,201 shares of Common Stock
or approximately 19.8% of the outstanding shares, with shared voting and

13d-4, beneficial ownership of the shares of Common Stock owned of record by
WPGVA, Enterprise, CDA IV and CDA Overseas, except to the extent of his
beneficial interest as a partner in WPGVP, Overseas and PEP, or in WPG, a
limited partner in WPGVA, Enterprise, CDA IV and CDA Overseas.

Corporation which may be owned of record or beneficially by any general partner
of WPGVP or General Partner of Advisor, other than Mr. Greer, since no such
partner possesses or shares voting or investment power with respect to the
shares.  Each of such general partners disclaims ownership, pursuant to Rule
13d-3, of the shares of Common Stock owned by the various parties referred to in
this Schedule 13G, other than such shares as the respective general partner owns
of record, or may be deemed to own by reason of his interest as a partner in the
various partnerships and limited liability company described herein.  Each of
