</TABLE>

          During the past five years neither K-G nor, to the best knowledge of 
          K-G, any of its executive officers or directors has been convicted in
          any criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar
          misdemeanors) or has been a part to a civil proceeding of a judicial
          or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of
          such proceeding is or was 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 was found
          to have violated any such laws.

Item 3.   Source and Amend of Funds or Other Consideration.
- ------    ------------------------------------------------ 

          Funds for K-G's purchases of the Shares reported on this Schedule 13D
          were provided from the working capital of K-G.

Item 4.   Purpose of Transaction.
- ------    ---------------------- 

          Item 4 is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following
          thereto:

          (a)  As reported in their original Schedule 13D, K-G acquired the
               Shares as an investment because K-G believed the shares
               represented an attractive investment opportunity at that time.

               K-G has made the decision to attempt to acquire the entire equity
               interest in, and control of, the Issuer. K-G has attempted to
               negotiate with the Board of Directors of the
                                                                          4 of 6
<PAGE>
 
               Issuer for the purpose of having the Board of Directors of the
               Issuer recommend to the stockholders of the Issuer that any and
               all outstanding shares of the Issuer be sold to K-G. To date
               Issuer has expressed that it has no interest in any offer that
               would be made by K-G for the purchase of any and all outstanding
               shares of the Issuer.

          (b)  Following acquisition of control, K-G may cause the Issuer to
               engage in a merger or other type of transactions with Liberty
               Banshares, Inc., Arnolds Park, Iowa ("Liberty").  The number of
               shares to be issued in connection with each of these transactions
               has not been determined.  To date, there have been no letters of
               intent or other agreements entered into between K-G and Liberty.

          (c)  K-G has no plans to sell or transfer a material amount of assets
               of Issuer.

          (d)  Once sufficient shares of Issuer have been acquired in order to
               obtain control, K-G intends to replace the current officers and
               board of directors of the Issuer.

          (e)  None.

          (f)  None.

          (g)  None.

          (h)  None.

          (i)  None.

          (j)  None, except as described above.

Item 5.   Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
- ------    ------------------------------------ 

          (a)  As of the date of this Schedule 13D, K-G owned directly 149,000
               Shares, representing approximately 9.64% of the class
               outstanding.  Additionally, as of the date of this Schedule 13D,
               two officers/directors of K-G, namely, Kyle J. Krause and Kevin
               W. Krause, personally owned directly 1,000 Shares and 200 Shares,
               respectively.  K-G expressly disclaims the existence of a group
               (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities
               Exchange Act of 1934) with these two individuals and further
               disclaims beneficial ownership of their Shares.  To the best of
               K-G's knowledge, none of its other directors and executive
               officers owned or 

                                                                          5 of 6

               had the right to acquire, directly or indirectly, any Shares in
               the last 60 days.

          (b)  K-G has the sole power to vote or to direct the vote and the sole
               power to dispose of, or to direct the disposition of, the Shares
               owned by it.

          (c)  There have been no transactions in the shares effected during the
               past 60 days.

          (d)  No person other than K-G has the right to receive or the power to
               direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the
               sale of, the Shares owned by K-G.

          (e)  Not applicable.

Item 6.   Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings, or Relationships with Respect
- ------    ----------------------------------------------------------------------
          to Securities of the Issuer.
          --------------------------- 

          Except as described in the Statement on Schedule 13D, neither K-G,
          nor, to the best knowledge of K-G, any of the executive officers and
          directors of K-G, has any contracts, arrangements, understandings, or
          relationships (legal or otherwise) with any person with respect to any
          securities of the Issuer, finder's fees, joint ventures, loan or
          option arrangements, puts or calls, guarantees of profits, division of
          profits or loss, or the giving or withholding of proxies.

Item 7.   Material to be Filed as Exhibits.

          None.
