          INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT

Commission pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, are

Item 6.	Indemnification of Directors and Officers

Under Minnesota corporate law, a corporation shall, unless prohibited
by its Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws, indemnify its directors,
officers, employees and agents against judgments, penalties, fines,
settlements, expenses and disbursements incurred by such person who was, or
is threatened to be, made a party to a proceeding by reason of the fact that
the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the
corporation if generally, with respect to the acts or omissions of the person
complained of in the proceeding, the person: (i) has not been indemnified by
another organization with respect to the same acts or omissions; (ii) acted
in good faith, (iii) received no improper personal benefit; (iv) in the case
of a criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the conduct was
unlawful; and (v) reasonably believed the conduct was in the best interests
of the corporation or, in certain circumstances, reasonably believed that the
conduct was not opposed to the bests interests of the corporation.  Minnesota
corporate law also provides that a corporation may purchase and maintain
insurance on behalf of any indemnified party against any liability asserted
against such person, whether or not the corporation would have been required
to indemnify the person against liability under the provisions of Minnesota
corporate law. The Company's Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws do not
limit the Company's obligation to indemnify such persons.

The Company's Articles of Incorporation limit the liability of its
directors to the full extent permitted by the Minnesota Business Corporation
Act. Specifically, directors of the Company will not be personally liable for
monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as directors except liability
for (i) any breach of the duty of loyalty to the Company or its shareholders,
(ii) acts or omissions not in good faith or that involve intentional
misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) dividends or other
distributions of corporate assets that are in contravention of certain
statutory or contractual restrictions, (iv) violations of certain Minnesota
securities laws or (v) any transaction from which the director derives an
improper personal benefit.

Item 9.	Undertakings

(a) The 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;

    (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the
    effective date of this 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 this
    Registration Statement; and

    (iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of
    distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or
    any material change to such information in this 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 with or
  furnished to the Commission by the Company pursuant to Section 13 or 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, 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 Company hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any
liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Company's annual
report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where
applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant
to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in
this 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
Company pursuant to the provisions described in Item 6 above, or otherwise,
the Company 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
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
Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

indicates that all securities offered have been sold or which deregisters all
securities then remaining unsold, shall be deemed to be incorporated by
reference to this Registration Statement and to be a part hereof from the
date of filing of such documents.

Item 6.	Indemnification of Directors and Officers

Under Minnesota corporate law, a corporation shall, unless prohibited
by its Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws, indemnify its directors,
officers, employees and agents against judgments, penalties, fines,
settlements, expenses and disbursements incurred by such person who was, or
is threatened to be, made a party to a proceeding by reason of the fact that
the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the
corporation if generally, with respect to the acts or omissions of the person
complained of in the proceeding, the person: (i) has not been indemnified by
another organization with respect to the same acts or omissions; (ii) acted
in good faith, (iii) received no improper personal benefit; (iv) in the case
of a criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the conduct was
unlawful; and (v) reasonably believed the conduct was in the best interests
of the corporation or, in certain circumstances, reasonably believed that the
conduct was not opposed to the bests interests of the corporation.  Minnesota
corporate law also provides that a corporation may purchase and maintain
insurance on behalf of any indemnified party against any liability asserted
against such person, whether or not the corporation would have been required
to indemnify the person against liability under the provisions of Minnesota
corporate law. The Company's Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws do not
limit the Company's obligation to indemnify such persons.

The Company's Articles of Incorporation limit the liability of its
directors to the full extent permitted by the Minnesota Business Corporation
Act. Specifically, directors of the Company will not be personally liable for
monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as directors except liability
for (i) any breach of the duty of loyalty to the Company or its shareholders,
(ii) acts or omissions not in good faith or that involve intentional
misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) dividends or other
distributions of corporate assets that are in contravention of certain
statutory or contractual restrictions, (iv) violations of certain Minnesota
securities laws or (v) any transaction from which the director derives an
improper personal benefit.

Item 9.	Undertakings

(a) The 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;

    (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the
    effective date of this 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 this
    Registration Statement; and

    (iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of
    distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or
    any material change to such information in this 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 with or
  furnished to the Commission by the Company pursuant to Section 13 or 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, 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 Company hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any
liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Company's annual
report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where
applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant
to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in
this 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
Company pursuant to the provisions described in Item 6 above, or otherwise,
the Company 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
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
Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
