foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant 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 registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a
director, officer or controlling person of the registrant 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 registrant 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 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Minnesota Statutes, Section 302A.521 provides that a corporation shall indemnify any person
who was or is made or is threatened to be made a party to any proceeding by reason of the former or
present official capacity of such person against judgments, penalties and fines, including, without
limitation, excise taxes assessed against each person with respect to any employee benefit plan,
settlements, and reasonable expenses, including attorneys' fees and disbursements, incurred by such
person in connection with the proceeding, if, with respect to the acts or omissions of such person
complained of in the proceeding, such person has not been indemnified by another organization or

employee benefit plan for the same penalties, fines, taxes and expenses with respect to the
same acts or omissions; acted in good faith; received no improper personal benefit and Section
302A.255 (regarding conflict of interest), if applicable, has been satisfied; in the case of a
criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the conduct was unlawful; and in the case
of acts or omissions by persons who were or are serving other organizations at the request of the
corporation or whose duties involve or involved service for other organizations, reasonably
believed that the conduct was not opposed to the best interests of the corporation. We also
maintain a directors and officers insurance policy, which insures our company, our officers and
directors against damages and costs incurred by reason of certain acts committed by such persons in
their capacities as officers and directors.
Item 7. Exemption from Registration Claimed.
With respect to restricted securities to be reoffered or resold pursuant to this Registration
Statement, the registrant relied on Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as

officers and directors.

Item 9. Undertakings.
The undersigned registrant 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;
Table of Contents
(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 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;
provided, however,
that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the information
required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic
reports filed by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference herein.
(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 herein, 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.
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability
under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant'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 herein 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.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be
permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the
foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant 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 registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a
director, officer or controlling person of the registrant 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 registrant 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.
