State below in reasonable detail the reasons why the Form 10-K, 11-K, 10-Q,
N-SAR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within
the prescribed time period (Attach Extra Sheets if Needed)
IGI, Inc. (the "Company") was unable to file its Annual Report on Form 10-K by
the March 31, 1998 due date as it has not completed the procedures it deems
necessary to prepare its financial statements. On March 27, 1998, the Company's
Board of Directors engaged special counsel to investigate information which may
have a material impact on the Company's financial reporting for 1997 and prior
periods and authorized special counsel to engage independent accountants to
assist them in such investigation. Also, the Company was unable to complete its
financial statements prior to reaching an agreement with its bank lenders to
obtain a waiver of defaults of certain covenants contained in its bank credit
agreement at year end 1997 and to extend the expiration date of its credit
agreement to December 31, 1998. The Company and its bank lenders signed a term
sheet to this effect on March 30, 1998.

(2) Have all other periodic reports required under Section 13 or 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or Section 30 of the Investment Company Act of
1940 during the proceeding 12 months or for such shorter period that the
registrant was required to file such report(s) been filed? If answer is no,
identify report(s).
Yes /X/ No / /
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(3) Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of operations from
the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be reflected by the
earnings statement to be included in the subject report or portion thereof?
Yes /X/ No / /
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If so, attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively and
quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reason why a reasonable estimate
of the results cannot be made.
Based on its review of operations to date, the Company expects that it will
incur a pretax loss ranging from $2.7 to $3.2 million for the fourth quarter of
1997, resulting in a pretax loss for fiscal 1997 ranging from $1.0 to $1.5
million. The expected loss is attributable primarily to lower-than-expected
poultry vaccine sales during period, certain inventory write-offs, additional
reserves for accounts receivable and notes receivable, and legal and related
expenses incurred in connection with the previously announced USDA OIG
investigation. The estimated loss for 1997 could be lower, or higher if
additional write-offs or charges are required in connection with completion of
1997 audit. Income before taxes was $29,000 for fiscal 1996.
