The Compensation Committee selects which performance goals will apply in any fiscal year.

-

Bonus amounts are based on a percentage of the participant's salary, as determined by the Compensation Committee, if and to the extent that the relevant performance goals are achieved.

-

The maximum bonus any person can earn in any year under the Plan is $5 million.

The foregoing description of the Plan is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Plan attached as Annex B to the Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A filed on March 21, 2011 in connection with the 2011 Annual Meeting, which is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 5.03.

Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

At the 2011 Annual Meeting, the Company’s shareholders approved several amendments to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation. Such amendments were effective upon the filing of Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation with the Wisconsin Department of Financial Institutions on May 16, 2011.  

The following is a description of the amendments adopted:

Elimination of Supermajority Vote Requirement in Article V(f)

Article V of the Articles of Incorporation specifies the procedures for the election of directors, the permissible number of directors constituting the Board, the term of each director, procedures to be followed in the event of vacancies on the Board, removal of directors, and shareholder nominations for directors.  Prior to this amendment, Article V(f) required the affirmative vote of the holders of 80% or more of the combined voting power of the then outstanding shares of stock entitled to vote on the matter to alter, amend, adopt any provision inconsistent with, or repeal Article V.  Under the amended Article V(f), the affirmative vote of a majority of the combined voting power of the then outstanding shares of stock entitled to vote on the matter, voting together as a single class, shall be required to alter, amend, adopt any provision inconsistent with, or repeal Article V.

Elimination of Supermajority Vote Requirement in Article VI

Article VI of the Articles of Incorporation specifies procedures regarding shareholder action and the amendment of certain provisions of the Bylaws.  Prior to this amendment, Article VI required the affirmative vote of the holders of 80% or more of the combined voting power of the then outstanding shares of stock entitled to vote on the matter to alter, amend, adopt any provision inconsistent with, or repeal Article VI of the Articles of Incorporation or Articles II or III of the Company’s Bylaws.  Under the amended Article VI the affirmative vote of a majority of the combined voting power of the then outstanding shares of stock entitled to vote on the matter shall be required to alter, amend, adopt any provision inconsistent with, or repeal Article VI of the Articles of Incorporation or Articles II or III of the Company’s Bylaws.  

The amendments do not alter any of the powers of the Company’s Board of Directors as may be set forth in Company’s Articles of Incorporation or as may be provided by law.

The description of the amendments of the Company’s Articles of Incorporation set forth above is qualified by reference to the full text of the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation of the Company, which are attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
