| • | Clarification of language in connection with the process of calling a meeting of the Company’s Board of Directors (Article III – Section 4) |
| • | The addition of language requiring that nominations for the election of directors at a special meeting of the shareholders be provided not less than three days prior to such meeting (Article III – Section 15) |
| • | The modification of provisions relating to the Company’s officers that addresses their appointment, applicable roles, and removal (Article IV) |
| • | The addition of a provision indicating that the proper forum for all derivative actions by the Company and other similar litigation shall be the state and federal courts located in Hennepin County, MN (Article XII). |
In addition, the Second Amended and Restated Bylaws include conforming changes and other non-substantive and technical edits and updates.
