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 (collectively
"Losses") if, with respect to the same acts or omissions, such person: (1) has not been indemnified by another organization
or employee benefit plan for the same Losses; (2) acted in good faith; (3) received no improper personal benefit, and statutory
procedures have 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
official capacity as director, officer, member of a committee of the board or employee, reasonably believed that the conduct was
in the best interests of the corporation, or in the case of acts or omissions occurring in a director's, officer's
or employee's capacity 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 corporation.

Article 9 of our Articles of Incorporation,
as amended, provides that none of our directors shall be personally liable to us or our shareholders for monetary damages for breach
of fiduciary duty as a director. Article 9 does not, however, limit or eliminate the liability of a director to the extent provided
by applicable law for (i) any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to us or our shareholders, (ii) acts or omissions
not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) authorizing a dividend, stock repurchase
or redemption or other distribution in violation of Minnesota law or for violation of certain provisions of Minnesota securities
laws or (iv) any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.
Our Restated Bylaws require us to indemnify
such persons, for such liabilities and expenses, in such manner, under such circumstances, and to such extent as is permitted by
Section 302A.521 of the MBCA, as now enacted or hereafter amended.
We also maintain an insurance policy or policies
to assist in funding our indemnification obligations with respects to directors and officers for certain liabilities.

Item 9.                 Undertakings.
(a)        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, as amended (the "Securities Act");
(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; and
II-

(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 (A) paragraphs (a)(1)(i)
and (a)(1)(ii) above do not apply if 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 registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d)
of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement.
(2)        That,
for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, 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.
(b)        The
undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing
of the registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act 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 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
Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities 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 Securities Act and will
be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
