         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 Amount 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. The total amount K-G has
         paid for Shares reported on this Schedule 13D is $940,625.00.

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 been negotiating
              with the Board of Directors of the 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. Issuer offered to purchase K-G's shares
              for $11.00 per

                                                                          4 of 6
<PAGE>

               share, this offer was rejected by K-G. On May 26, 1999, K-G
               offered to purchase any and all outstanding shares of the Issuer
               for $13.75, this offer was rejected by Issuer. K-G has nominated
               Tom R. Bernau, Dennis N. Folden, and Kyle J. Krause for election
               as directors to the Board of Directors 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, 149,000
               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.

         2. Nomination of Dennis N. Folden (with Exhibit A attached thereto).
