Any action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of the Board of this

Directors at which all directors are present.

                                  ARTICLE VIII.

No director of this Corporation shall be personally liable to the Corporation or
its shareholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty by such
director as a director; provided, however, that this Article shall not eliminate
or limit the liability of a director to the extent provided by applicable law:
(i) for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the Corporation or its
shareholders; (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve
intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law; (iii) under Section
302A.559 or 80A.23 of the Minnesota Statutes, as amended; (iv) for any
transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit; or (v)
for any act or omission occurring prior to the effective date of this Article.
If the Minnesota Business Corporation Act hereafter is amended to authorize the
further elimination or limitation of the liability of directors, then the
liability of a director of the Corporation in addition to the limitation and
elimination of personal liability provided herein, shall be eliminated or
limited to the fullest extent permitted by the Minnesota Business Corporation
Act, as so amended. No amendment to or repeal of this Article VIII shall apply
to, or have any effect on, the liability or alleged liability of any director
for or with respect to any acts or omissions of such director occurring prior to
such amendment or repeal.

                                   ARTICLE IX.

The Corporation shall indemnify to the fullest extent permissible under the
provisions of Chapter 302A of the Minnesota Statutes, as amended, (as now or
hereafter in effect) any person made or threatened to be made a party to or
witness in any threatened, pending, or completed civil, criminal,
administrative, arbitration, or investigative proceeding, including a proceeding
by or in the right of the Corporation by reason of the fact that he, his
testator or intestate, is or was a director or officer of the Corporation, or by
reason of the fact that such director or officer, while a director or officer of
the Corporation, is or was serving at the request of the Corporation, or whose
duties in that position involved service as a director, officer, partner,
trustee or agent of another organization or employee benefit plan, against all
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. Nothing contained herein shall affect any rights to
indemnification to which employees or agents of the Corporation other than
directors and officers may be entitled under the provisions of Chapter 302A of
the Minnesota Statutes, as amended. Any repeal or modification of this Article
IX shall be prospective only, and shall not adversely affect any right to
indemnification or protection of a director or officer of the Corporation
existing at the time of such repeal or modification. No amendment to or repeal
of this Article shall apply to or have any effect on the liability of or alleged
liability of any director or the Corporation for or with respect to any acts or
omissions of such director occurring prior to such amendment or repeal.

                                   ARTICLE X.

The shareholders of this Corporation may, by a majority vote of all shares
issued, outstanding and entitled to vote:

         1.       Authorize the Board of Directors to sell, lease, exchange or
                  otherwise dispose of all, or substantially all, of its
                  property and assets, including its goodwill, upon such terms
                  and conditions and for such consideration, which may be money,
                  shares, bonds, or other instruments for the payment of money
                  or other property, as the Board of Directors deems expedient
                  and in the best interests of the Corporation;

         2.       Amend the Articles of Incorporation of this Corporation for
                  any reasons or lawful purpose, and in the event that any such
                  amendment adversely affects the rights of holders of shares of
                  such different classes, the affirmative vote of a majority of
                  each such class shall be sufficient to adopt the amendment;
                  and

         3.       Adopt and approve an agreement of merger or consolidation
                  presented to them by the Board of Directors.
