issued and outstanding;
(b) That all such authorized shares are, under the laws of the
State of Minnesota, redeemable as provided in the Articles of
Incorporation of the Company and upon redemption shall have
the status of authorized and unissued shares;
(c) That the Company registered on Dec. 23, 1992 an indefinite
number of shares pursuant to Rule 24f-2 and is herewith
filing a Rule 24f-2 Notice covering the shares during its
Fiscal Period ended October 31, 1994; and

and in accordance with applicable federal and state
