                 INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT


ITEM 3.   INCORPORATION OF DOCUMENTS BY REFERENCE.

          The following documents, previously filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the "Commission") pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), are, as of their respective dates,
incorporated by reference and made a part hereof:

               (1)  The Registration Statement of The Chromaline Corporation
          (the "Company") on Form 10-SB (File No. 000-25727), as amended
          (declared effective on June 4, 1999), filed under the Exchange Act.

               (2)  All other reports filed pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d)
          of the Exchange Act after the effective date of the Registration
          Statement referred to in (1) above.

               (3)  The description of the Company's Common Stock which is
          contained in the Registration Statement referred to in (1) above and
          all amendments and reports filed for the purpose of updating such
          description.

          All reports and other documents subsequently filed by the Company
pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act subsequent to
the date of this Registration Statement and prior to the filing of a
post-effective amendment which indicate that all of the shares of Common Stock
offered have been sold or which deregister all shares of the Common Stock then
remaining unsold shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference in and a part
of this Registration Statement from the date of filing of such documents.

          Any statement contained in a document incorporated, or deemed to be
incorporated, by reference herein shall be deemed to be modified or superseded
for purposes of this Registration Statement to the extent that a statement
contained herein or incorporated herein by reference or in any other
subsequently filed document that also is or is deemed to be incorporated by
reference herein modifies or supersedes such statement.  Any statement so
modified or superseded shall not be deemed, except as so modified or superseded,
to constitute a part of this Registration Statement.

ITEM 4.   DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES.

          Not Applicable.

ITEM 5.   INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL.

          Not Applicable.

ITEM 6.   INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

          Under Article V, Sections 1 and 2 of the Company's By-Laws, as
amended, and Article 8, Section 8.5 of the Company's Restated Articles of
Incorporation, as amended, the Company indemnifies its directors and officers
and advances litigation expenses to the fullest extent required or permitted by
Minnesota Statutes Section 302A.521.  This indemnification is subject to the
requirement in the case of legal judgments, that the individual seeking
indemnification is not finally adjudged to have been guilty of willful
misconduct detrimental to the best interests of the Company.  Section 302A.521
requires the Company to indemnify a person made or threatened to be made a party
to a proceeding, by reason of the former or present official capacity of the
person with


                                         II-1
<PAGE>

respect to the Company, against judgments, penalties, fines, including without
limitation, excise taxes assessed against the person with respect to an employee
benefit plan, settlements, and reasonable expenses, including attorneys' fees
and disbursements, if, with respect to the acts or omissions of the person
complained of in the proceeding, such person (1) has not been indemnified by
another organization or employee benefit plan for the same judgments, penalties,
fines, including without limitation, excise taxes assessed against the person
with respect to an employee benefit plan, settlements, and reasonable expenses,
including attorneys' fees and disbursements, incurred by the person in
connection with the proceeding with respect to the same acts or omissions; (2)
acted in good faith; (3) received no improper personal benefit, and statutory
procedure has been followed in the case of any conflict of interest by a
director; (4) in the case of a criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to
believe the conduct was unlawful; and (5) in the case of acts or omissions
occurring in the person's performance in the official capacity of director or,
for a person not a director, in the official capacity of officer, committee
member, employee or agent, reasonably believed that the conduct was in the best
interests of the Company, or in the case of performance by a director, officer,
employee or agent of the Company as a director, officer, partner, trustee,
employee or agent of another organization or employee benefit plan, reasonably
believed that the conduct was not opposed to the best interests of the Company.
In addition, Section 302A.521, subd. 3, requires payment by the Company upon
written request, of reasonable expenses in advance of final disposition in
certain instances.

     The Restated Articles of Incorporation of the Company, as amended,
eliminate the personal liability of a director to the Company or its
shareholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director,
except under certain circumstances involving any breach of the director's duty
of loyalty to the Company or its shareholders, acts or omissions not in good
faith or that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, or
for any unlawful acts under Sections 302A.559 or 80A.23 of Minnesota Statutes.

ITEM 9.   UNDERTAKINGS.

     A.   The Company 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;

                    (ii)  To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events
          arising after the effective date of the 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 the 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 Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in
          the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than
          a twenty percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set
          forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective
          Registration Statement; and

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

PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that paragraphs (A)(1)(i) and (A)(1)(ii) do not apply if the
Registration Statement is on Form S-3 or Form S-8, and 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 Company
pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
that are incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement.

          (2)  That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
     Securities Act of 1933, each 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.

     B.   The Company hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any
liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the Company's annual
report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual
report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities  Exchange Act of 1934) that
is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be
a new registration statement relating to the securities offered herein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.

     C.   Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling
persons of the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the
Company has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange
Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act
and is, therefore, unenforceable.  In the event that a claim for indemnification
against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Company of expenses
incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Company 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 Company 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.

ITEM 3.   INCORPORATION OF DOCUMENTS BY REFERENCE.

          The following documents, previously filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the "Commission") pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), are, as of their respective dates,
incorporated by reference and made a part hereof:

               (1)  The Registration Statement of The Chromaline Corporation
          (the "Company") on Form 10-SB (File No. 000-25727), as amended
          (declared effective on June 4, 1999), filed under the Exchange Act.

               (2)  All other reports filed pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d)
          of the Exchange Act after the effective date of the Registration
          Statement referred to in (1) above.

               (3)  The description of the Company's Common Stock which is
          contained in the Registration Statement referred to in (1) above and
          all amendments and reports filed for the purpose of updating such
          description.

          All reports and other documents subsequently filed by the Company
pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act subsequent to
the date of this Registration Statement and prior to the filing of a
post-effective amendment which indicate that all of the shares of Common Stock
offered have been sold or which deregister all shares of the Common Stock then
remaining unsold shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference in and a part
of this Registration Statement from the date of filing of such documents.

          Any statement contained in a document incorporated, or deemed to be
incorporated, by reference herein shall be deemed to be modified or superseded
for purposes of this Registration Statement to the extent that a statement
contained herein or incorporated herein by reference or in any other
subsequently filed document that also is or is deemed to be incorporated by
reference herein modifies or supersedes such statement.  Any statement so
modified or superseded shall not be deemed, except as so modified or superseded,
to constitute a part of this Registration Statement.

ITEM 4.   DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES.

          Not Applicable.

ITEM 5.   INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL.

          Not Applicable.

ITEM 6.   INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

          Under Article V, Sections 1 and 2 of the Company's By-Laws, as
amended, and Article 8, Section 8.5 of the Company's Restated Articles of
Incorporation, as amended, the Company indemnifies its directors and officers
and advances litigation expenses to the fullest extent required or permitted by
Minnesota Statutes Section 302A.521.  This indemnification is subject to the
requirement in the case of legal judgments, that the individual seeking
indemnification is not finally adjudged to have been guilty of willful
misconduct detrimental to the best interests of the Company.  Section 302A.521
requires the Company to indemnify a person made or threatened to be made a party
to a proceeding, by reason of the former or present official capacity of the
person with

                                         II-1
respect to the Company, against judgments, penalties, fines, including without
limitation, excise taxes assessed against the person with respect to an employee
benefit plan, settlements, and reasonable expenses, including attorneys' fees
and disbursements, if, with respect to the acts or omissions of the person
complained of in the proceeding, such person (1) has not been indemnified by
another organization or employee benefit plan for the same judgments, penalties,
fines, including without limitation, excise taxes assessed against the person
with respect to an employee benefit plan, settlements, and reasonable expenses,
including attorneys' fees and disbursements, incurred by the person in
connection with the proceeding with respect to the same acts or omissions; (2)
acted in good faith; (3) received no improper personal benefit, and statutory
procedure has been followed in the case of any conflict of interest by a
director; (4) in the case of a criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to
believe the conduct was unlawful; and (5) in the case of acts or omissions
occurring in the person's performance in the official capacity of director or,
for a person not a director, in the official capacity of officer, committee
member, employee or agent, reasonably believed that the conduct was in the best
interests of the Company, or in the case of performance by a director, officer,
employee or agent of the Company as a director, officer, partner, trustee,
employee or agent of another organization or employee benefit plan, reasonably
believed that the conduct was not opposed to the best interests of the Company.
In addition, Section 302A.521, subd. 3, requires payment by the Company upon
written request, of reasonable expenses in advance of final disposition in
certain instances.

     The Restated Articles of Incorporation of the Company, as amended,
eliminate the personal liability of a director to the Company or its
shareholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director,
except under certain circumstances involving any breach of the director's duty
of loyalty to the Company or its shareholders, acts or omissions not in good
faith or that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, or
for any unlawful acts under Sections 302A.559 or 80A.23 of Minnesota Statutes.

ITEM 9.   UNDERTAKINGS.

     A.   The Company 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;

                    (ii)  To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events
          arising after the effective date of the 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 the 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 Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in
          the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than
          a twenty percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set
          forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective
          Registration Statement; and

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

PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that paragraphs (A)(1)(i) and (A)(1)(ii) do not apply if the
Registration Statement is on Form S-3 or Form S-8, and 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 Company
pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
that are incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement.

          (2)  That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
     Securities Act of 1933, each 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.

     B.   The Company hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any
liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the Company's annual
report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual
report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities  Exchange Act of 1934) that
is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be
a new registration statement relating to the securities offered herein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.

     C.   Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling
persons of the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the
Company has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange
Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act
and is, therefore, unenforceable.  In the event that a claim for indemnification
against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Company of expenses
incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Company 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 Company 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.
