("Company"), whose principal executive offices are located at 3131 Jay

shares of Common Stock reported beneficially owned by each person herein
is based on 30,460,857 shares outstanding, which is the total number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding as of May 16, 2000, as reflected in the
Company's Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
("Commission") on May 17, 2000. Unless otherwise indicated, the holdings

Item 2. Identity and Background
(a) This statement is filed by Kopp Investment Advisors, Inc.
("KIA"), with respect to shares of Common Stock beneficially owned directly
by it and held in discretionary accounts managed by KIA; Kopp Holding
Company ("KHC"), solely as the parent corporation of KIA and indirect
beneficial owner of the shares beneficially owned by KIA; Kopp Emerging
Growth Fund ("KEGF") with respect to shares owned directly by KEGF; and
LeRoy C. Kopp individually with respect to shares of Common Stock
beneficially owned directly by him and indirectly by him by virtue of his
ownership of all of the stock of KHC. The foregoing persons are hereinafter
sometimes referred to as "Reporting Persons." Certain information
concerning the directors and executive officers of the corporate Reporting
Persons is set forth on Schedule A attached hereto and incorporated herein by
reference. Any disclosures with respect to persons other than the Reporting
Persons are made on information and belief after making inquiry to the
appropriate party.
(b) The business address of each of the Reporting Persons and
directors and executive officers is 7701 France Avenue South, Suite 500,
Edina, MN 55435.
( c) The principal business of KIA is that of an investment advisor
managing discretionary accounts owned by numerous third-party clients,
including KEGF, a registered investment company incorporated under
Minnesota law. KHC is a holding company engaged, through subsidiaries, in
the investment industry. The principal occupation of Mr. Kopp is serving as
the president of KHC and KIA.
(d) None of the persons referred to in paragraph (a) above has, during
the last five years, been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic

(e) None of the persons referred to in paragraph (a) above has, during

administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such
proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree, or final order enjoining
future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal
or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.
(f) KIA and KHC are Minnesota corporations. KEGF is a series of
Kopp Funds Inc., a Minnesota corporation. Mr. Kopp and all other directors
and executive officers of the Reporting Persons are citizens of the United
States.
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
The net investment cost (including commissions, if any) of the shares
of Common Stock directly or indirectly beneficially owned by Mr. Kopp,
which includes shares beneficially owned by the other Reporting Persons, at
June 2, 2000, was approximately $83,490,875.01. The shares beneficially
owned by KIA were purchased with the investment capital of KIA or the
investment capital of the owners of the discretionary accounts. The shares
beneficially owned by KEGF were purchased with the working capital of the
mutual fund. The shares beneficially owned directly by Mr. Kopp were
purchased with his investment capital or the funds of an employee benefit
plan or 501(c)(3) corporation. See Item 5 below.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction
The Reporting Persons acquired the shares of Common Stock for
investment purposes, and the Reporting Persons intend to evaluate the
performance of such securities as an investment in the ordinary course of
business. The vast majority of the shares covered hereby are separately
owned by hundreds of discrete, independent persons, including a simple
registered investment company. These persons do not act in concert in any
way. The Reporting Persons pursue an investment objective of long term
capital appreciation. In pursuing this investment objective, the Reporting
Persons analyze the management, operations and markets of companies in
which they invest, including the Company, on a continual basis through
analysis of research and discussions with industry and market observers and
with representatives of such companies.
Each Reporting Person that owns shares of Common Stock assesses
the Company's business, financial condition, and results of operations as well
as economic conditions and securities markets in general and those for the
Company's shares in particular. Depending on such assessments, one or
more of such Reporting Persons may acquire additional shares or may sell or
otherwise dispose of all or some of the shares of Common Stock. Such
actions will depend on a variety of factors, including current and anticipated
trading prices for the Common Stock, alternative investment opportunities,
and general economic, financial market, and industry conditions.
The Reporting Persons understand that prior purchases of shares of
Common Stock, if any, by persons named in Schedule A to this statement
were made for the purpose of each such person's personal investment.
Except as described in this Item 4, none of the Reporting Persons nor
any other person named in Schedule A has any plans or proposals that relate
to, or would result in, any matter required to be disclosed in response to
paragraphs (a) through (j), inclusive, of Item 4 of Schedule 13D. The shares
of Common Stock were not acquired for the purpose, nor with the effect, of
changing or influencing the control of the Company. Neither any of the
Reporting Persons nor, to the knowledge of the Reporting Persons, any client
or shareholder thereof is a member of a "group" for any purpose, legally,
factually, or otherwise.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer
(a) Through its own investment account, KIA is the direct owner of
300,000 shares, or approximately .1%, of the Common Stock. By virtue of
separate limited powers of attorney and/or investment advisory agreements,
KIA is the beneficial owner of 6,304,245 shares, or 20.7%, of the Common
Stock. KIA has sole voting power over its investment account and, by special
agreement, over a small percentage of the shares managed for clients. Under
its standard investment agreement, KIA does not vote its clients' shares. KIA
manages and votes shares owned by KEGF. By virtue of the relationships
described in Item 2 of this statement, KHC and Mr. Kopp have indirect
beneficial ownership of the shares beneficially owned by KIA.
Mr. Kopp's beneficial ownership comprises Common Stock held in
the Kopp Family Foundation ("KFF"), for which he serves as a director; held
in the LeRoy C. Kopp Individual Retirement Account ("IRA"); held in the
KHC Profit-Sharing Plan ("Plan"), for which he serves as sole trustee; and
held directly by him or in his wife's IRA. The KFF is the direct owner of
255,000 shares, or .8%, of the Common Stock. The IRA's own 542,700
shares, or approximately 2%, of the Common Stock. The Plan is the direct
owner of 60,000 shares or approximately .2%. Mr. Kopp owns directly
340,000 shares, or approximately 1%, of the Common Stock. In the
aggregate, including the shares beneficially owned by KIA, under Section 13
of the Securities Act of 1934 Mr. Kopp may be deemed beneficially to own a
total of 7,801,945 shares, or 25.6%, of the Common Stock.
(b) KIA has sole power to vote 3,555,000 shares of the Common
Stock. Pursuant to the limited powers of attorney granted to KIA by its
clients, which generally are terminable immediately upon notice, KIA in
effect shares with the majority of its thousands of clients the power to dispose
of the Common Stock owned individually by them. KIA has sole power to
dispose of 2,890,000 shares. In effect Mr. Kopp has sole power to dispose of
and to vote the Common Stock beneficially owned directly by him.
( c) The identity of the Reporting Person, type of transaction, date,
number of shares, and price per share (excluding commission) for all
transactions in the Common Stock by the Reporting Persons within the past
60 days are set forth on Schedule B attached hereto and incorporated by
reference herein. Substantially all trades by the Reporting Persons are done
in the over-the-counter market.
(d) With the exception of the thousands of clients of KIA and the
employees of KHC, no person other than each respective record owner of
shares of Common Stock is known to have the right to receive or the power
to direct the receipt of dividends from or the proceeds of the sale of such
shares of Common Stock.
(e) Not applicable.
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with
Respect to Securities of the Issuer
Except as otherwise expressly disclosed herein, there are no contracts,
arrangements, understandings, or relationships (legal or otherwise) among the
persons named in Item 2 hereof or between such persons and any other
person with respect to the Common Stock. The filing of this Schedule shall
NOT be construed as an admission that a Reporting Person is a beneficial
owner of any shares of Common Stock for any purpose, including for
purposes of Sections 13, 14 or 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended from time to time.
