<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">We are subject to Minnesota Statutes Chapter&nbsp;302A, the Minnesota Business Corporation Act (the
&#147;Corporation Act&#148;). Section&nbsp;302A.521 of the Corporation Act provides in substance that, unless
prohibited by its articles of incorporation or bylaws, a corporation must indemnify an officer or
director who is made or threatened to be made a party to a proceeding by reason of the former or
present official capacity of the person 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&#146; fees and disbursements, incurred by such
person in connection with the proceeding, if certain criteria are met. These criteria, all of which
must be met by the person seeking indemnification, are (a)&nbsp;that such person 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&#146; fees and
disbursements, incurred by the person in connection with the proceeding with respect to the same
act or omissions; (b)&nbsp;that such person must have acted in good faith; (c)&nbsp;that no improper personal
benefit was obtained by such person and such person satisfied certain statutory conflicts of
interest provisions, if applicable; (d)&nbsp;that in the case of a criminal proceeding, such person had
no reasonable cause to believe that the conduct was unlawful; and (e)&nbsp;that such person must have
acted in a manner such person reasonably believed was in the best interests of the corporation or,
in certain limited circumstances, not opposed to the best interests of the corporation. In
addition, Section&nbsp;302A.521, subd. 3 of the Corporation Act requires payment by us, upon written
request, of reasonable expenses in advance of final disposition in certain instances. A decision as
to required indemnification or advancement of expenses is made by a majority of the disinterested
board of directors present at a meeting at which a disinterested quorum is present, or by a
designated committee of disinterested directors, by special legal counsel, by the disinterested
shareholders, or by a court.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">As contemplated by Section&nbsp;302A.251, Article&nbsp;VII of our amended and restated articles of
incorporation provides that no director shall be personally liable to us or our shareholders for
monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability (i)&nbsp;for breach of
the director&#146;s duty of loyalty to us or our shareholders, (ii)&nbsp;for acts or omissions not in good
faith or that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii)&nbsp;for obligations
under Minnesota Statutes Sections&nbsp;302A.559 or 80A.23; or (iv)&nbsp;any transaction from which the
director derived an improper personal benefit. In addition, Article&nbsp;VII of our amended and restated
articles of incorporation provides that we will indemnify and hold harmless our directors and
officers to the fullest extent authorized by the Corporation Act for all expense, liability and
loss reasonably incurred or suffered in connection with an action, suit or proceeding involving
such officers or directors by reason of the fact they are or were directors or officers of the
company.

against and incurred by such persons in such capacities. We have obtained insurance covering our
officers and directors against losses and insuring us against certain of our obligations to
indemnify our officers and directors.

payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by
a director, officer or controlling person of the

Item 4. Description of Securities.
Not applicable.
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
Not applicable.
Item 6. Indemnification of Officers and Directors.
We are subject to Minnesota Statutes Chapter 302A, the Minnesota Business Corporation Act (the
"Corporation Act"). Section 302A.521 of the Corporation Act provides in substance that, unless
prohibited by its articles of incorporation or bylaws, a corporation must indemnify an officer or
director who is made or threatened to be made a party to a proceeding by reason of the former or
present official capacity of the person 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, incurred by such
person in connection with the proceeding, if certain criteria are met. These criteria, all of which
must be met by the person seeking indemnification, are (a) that such person 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
act or omissions; (b) that such person must have acted in good faith; (c) that no improper personal
benefit was obtained by such person and such person satisfied certain statutory conflicts of
interest provisions, if applicable; (d) that in the case of a criminal proceeding, such person had
no reasonable cause to believe that the conduct was unlawful; and (e) that such person must have
acted in a manner such person reasonably believed was in the best interests of the corporation or,
in certain limited circumstances, not opposed to the best interests of the corporation. In
addition, Section 302A.521, subd. 3 of the Corporation Act requires payment by us, upon written
request, of reasonable expenses in advance of final disposition in certain instances. A decision as
to required indemnification or advancement of expenses is made by a majority of the disinterested
board of directors present at a meeting at which a disinterested quorum is present, or by a
designated committee of disinterested directors, by special legal counsel, by the disinterested
shareholders, or by a court.

Table of Contents
As contemplated by Section 302A.251, Article VII of our amended and restated articles of
incorporation provides that no director shall be personally liable to us or our shareholders for
monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability (i) for breach of
the director's duty of loyalty to us or our shareholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good
faith or that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) for obligations
under Minnesota Statutes Sections 302A.559 or 80A.23; or (iv) any transaction from which the
director derived an improper personal benefit. In addition, Article VII of our amended and restated
articles of incorporation provides that we will indemnify and hold harmless our directors and
officers to the fullest extent authorized by the Corporation Act for all expense, liability and
loss reasonably incurred or suffered in connection with an action, suit or proceeding involving
such officers or directors by reason of the fact they are or were directors or officers of the
company.
Section 302A.521, Subd. 7 of the Corporation Act provides that we may purchase and maintain
insurance on behalf of our officers, directors employees and agents, against any liability asserted
against and incurred by such persons in such capacities. We have obtained insurance covering our
officers and directors against losses and insuring us against certain of our obligations to
indemnify our officers and directors.
We also maintain a director and officer insurance policy to cover the company, its directors and
its officers against certain liabilities.

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 Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if,
in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a twenty
percent (20%) change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the
"Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement.
Provided, however, that paragraphs (i) and (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 Securities and Exchange Commission by the Registrant pursuant to
Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in this
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.
(4)
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 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.
(5)
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.
