                            STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT


         THIS AMENDMENT is made and entered into as of April 13, 1999 between

         WHEREAS, the parties hereto have entered into the Stock Purchase
Agreement dated January 13, 1998, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to Stock

         WHEREAS, the parties wish to amend Section 7.17(b) of the Agreement to

                           of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of
                           the Company with respect to which Allianz's
                           percentage ownership shall be determined shall be
                           deemed to include all Common Stock repurchased by the
                           Company pursuant to the stock repurchase plans
                           approved by the Board of Directors of the Company on
                           July 15, 1998 and April 12, 1999."

         2.       Amendment to Section 7.17 of the Agreement. Clause (b) of
                  Section 7.17 of the Agreement is hereby amended to read as
                  follows:

                           "(b) repurchase any shares of its Common Stock from
                           any of its shareholders in any calendar year in
                           excess of five percent (5%) of the number of shares
                           of Common Stock outstanding at the beginning of such
                           year, provided that

                           this restriction on repurchase shall not apply
                           to the Company's repurchase of its Common Stock
                           pursuant to the stock repurchase plans approved by
                           the Board of Directors of the Company on July 15,
                           1998 and April 13, 1999."

         3.       Full Force and Effect. Except as expressly set forth herein,
                  the Agreement as amended hereby shall continue in full force
                  and effect in accordance with its terms.

         4.       Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in any number of
                  counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate
                  counterparts, each of which, when so executed and delivered,
                  shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken
                  together shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

                  construed in accordance with the laws of the State of
                  Minnesota, without regard to the principles thereof regarding
