</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company is incorporated under the Wisconsin Business Corporation Law (the &#147;WBCL&#148;). The
WBCL includes provisions for indemnification by a corporation of a director or officer against
certain liabilities and expenses incurred by him or her in any proceeding (whether threatened,
pending, or completed, and whether brought by the corporation or any other person) to which he or
she was a party because he or she is a director or officer of the corporation. In general, under
these provisions (1)&nbsp;a corporation is required to indemnify a director or officer, to the extent he
or she has been successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of any such proceeding, for
all reasonable expenses incurred in the proceeding, and (2)&nbsp;in other cases, the corporation is
required to indemnify a director or officer against liabilities (including, among other things,
judgments, penalties, fines and reasonable expenses) incurred in any such proceeding unless
liability was incurred because he or she breached or failed to perform a duty that he or she owed
to the corporation and the breach or failure constitutes any of the following: (a)&nbsp;a willful
failure to deal fairly with the corporation or its shareholders in connection with a matter in
which he or she has a material conflict

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">of interest; (b)&nbsp;a violation of
criminal law, unless he or she had reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was lawful
or no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful; (c)&nbsp;a transaction from which he
or she derived an improper personal profit; or (d)&nbsp;willful misconduct. The provisions specify that
the termination of a proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, or conviction, or upon a plea of no
contest or an equivalent plea, does not, by itself, create a presumption that indemnification is
not required. Also, the provisions permit a corporation to pay or reimburse reasonable expenses as
incurred if the director or officer affirms in writing his or her good faith belief that he or she
has not breached or failed to perform his or her duties to the corporation and undertakes to make
repayment to the extent it is ultimately determined that indemnification is not required. With
specified exceptions, these provisions do not preclude additional indemnification. The WBCL
specifically provides that it is the public policy of the State of Wisconsin to require or permit
indemnification, allowance of expenses and insurance, to the extent required or permitted generally
thereunder, for any liability incurred in connection with a proceeding involving a federal or state
statute, rule, or regulation regulating the offer, sale, or purchase of securities.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The WBCL also provides that, with certain exceptions, a director is not liable to a
corporation, its shareholders, or any person asserting rights on behalf of the corporation or its
shareholders, for damages, settlements, fees, fines, penalties or other monetary liabilities
arising from a breach of, or failure to perform, any duty resulting solely from his or her status
as a director, unless the person asserting liability proves that the breach or failure to perform
constitutes any of the four exceptions to mandatory indemnification referred to above.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company&#146;s By-laws contain provisions that generally parallel the indemnification
provisions of the WBCL. The Company maintains a liability insurance policy for its directors and
officers as permitted by Wisconsin law, which may extend to, among other things, liability arising
under the Securities Act.

Item 4. Description of Securities.
Not applicable.
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
Not Applicable.
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
The Company is incorporated under the Wisconsin Business Corporation Law (the "WBCL"). The
WBCL includes provisions for indemnification by a corporation of a director or officer against
certain liabilities and expenses incurred by him or her in any proceeding (whether threatened,
pending, or completed, and whether brought by the corporation or any other person) to which he or
she was a party because he or she is a director or officer of the corporation. In general, under
these provisions (1) a corporation is required to indemnify a director or officer, to the extent he
or she has been successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of any such proceeding, for
all reasonable expenses incurred in the proceeding, and (2) in other cases, the corporation is
required to indemnify a director or officer against liabilities (including, among other things,
judgments, penalties, fines and reasonable expenses) incurred in any such proceeding unless
liability was incurred because he or she breached or failed to perform a duty that he or she owed
to the corporation and the breach or failure constitutes any of the following: (a) a willful
failure to deal fairly with the corporation or its shareholders in connection with a matter in
which he or she has a material conflict
2
Table of Contents
of interest; (b) a violation of
criminal law, unless he or she had reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was lawful
or no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful; (c) a transaction from which he
or she derived an improper personal profit; or (d) willful misconduct. The provisions specify that
the termination of a proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, or conviction, or upon a plea of no
contest or an equivalent plea, does not, by itself, create a presumption that indemnification is
not required. Also, the provisions permit a corporation to pay or reimburse reasonable expenses as
incurred if the director or officer affirms in writing his or her good faith belief that he or she
has not breached or failed to perform his or her duties to the corporation and undertakes to make
repayment to the extent it is ultimately determined that indemnification is not required. With
specified exceptions, these provisions do not preclude additional indemnification. The WBCL
specifically provides that it is the public policy of the State of Wisconsin to require or permit
indemnification, allowance of expenses and insurance, to the extent required or permitted generally
thereunder, for any liability incurred in connection with a proceeding involving a federal or state
statute, rule, or regulation regulating the offer, sale, or purchase of securities.
The WBCL also provides that, with certain exceptions, a director is not liable to a
corporation, its shareholders, or any person asserting rights on behalf of the corporation or its
shareholders, for damages, settlements, fees, fines, penalties or other monetary liabilities
arising from a breach of, or failure to perform, any duty resulting solely from his or her status
as a director, unless the person asserting liability proves that the breach or failure to perform
constitutes any of the four exceptions to mandatory indemnification referred to above.
The Company's By-laws contain provisions that generally parallel the indemnification
provisions of the WBCL. The Company maintains a liability insurance policy for its directors and
officers as permitted by Wisconsin law, which may extend to, among other things, liability arising
under the Securities Act.
Item 7. Exemption from Registration Claimed
.
Not Applicable.
Item 8. Exhibits
.
See Exhibit Index following Signatures page in this Registration Statement, which Exhibit
Index is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 9. Undertakings
.
(a) The undersigned 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 20% 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 the Registration
Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration
Statement;
3
Table of Contents
Provided however
, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) of this section
do not apply if the information required to be included in a
post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in 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 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.
...
5.
That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of
1933 to any purchaser:
i.
If the Company is relying on Rule 430B:
A.
Each prospectus filed by the
Company pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of
the Registration Statement as of the date the filed prospectus
was deemed part of and included in the Registration Statement;
and
B.
Each prospectus required to be
filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of a
registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an
offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii), or (x) for
the purpose of providing the information required by section
10(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part of
and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of
the date such form of prospectus is first used after
effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of
securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As
provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and
any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall
be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration
statement relating to the securities in the registration
statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of
such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial
bona fide offering thereof.
Provided, however
, that no statement
made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of
the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or
deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement
or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as
to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such
effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made
in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the
registration statement or made in any such document immediately
prior to such effective date; or
ii.
If the Company is subject to Rule 430C, each
prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration
statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements
relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule
430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration
statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness.
Provided,
however,
that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus
that is part of the registration statement or made in a document
incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration
statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will,
as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first
use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration
statement or
4
Table of Contents
prospectus that was part of the registration statement or
made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.
6.
That, for the purpose of determining liability of the Company
under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of
the securities: The undersigned Company undertakes that in a primary offering of
securities of the undersigned Company pursuant to this Registration Statement,
regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the
purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of
any of the following communications, the undersigned Company will be a seller to
the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such
purchaser:
i.
Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the
undersigned Company relating to the offering required to be filed
pursuant to Rule 424;
ii.
Any free writing prospectus relating to the
offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned Company or used or
referred to by the undersigned Company;
iii.
The portion of any other free writing prospectus
relating to the offering containing material information about the
undersigned Company or its securities provided by or on behalf of the
undersigned Company; and
iv.
Any other communication that is an offer in the
offering made by the undersigned Company to the purchaser.
(b)
The undersigned 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 therein, 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.
