Item 5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year
 
Our Board of Directors, effective August 8, 2011, unanimously approved and adopted Amended and Restated Bylaws.  The Amended and Restated Bylaws are filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Form 8-K.
 
Our prior Bylaws were outdated, and, as to some matters, did not comply with applicable law.  The amendment and restatement of the Bylaws, with one exception, was effective upon adoption by the Board of Directors.  The primary changes are that the new Bylaws:
 
·  
Require that nominations of directors other than by the Board of Directors can be made only if the candidate is identified to the Company 90 days in advance of the meeting and are made in compliance with SEC disclosure requirements;
 
·  
Provide that directors appointed by the Board of Directors to fill vacancies may only be removed by the shareholders;
 
·  
Limit business at regular meetings of shareholders to matters set forth in the notice of meeting, brought before the meeting by the Board of Directors, or brought before the meeting by a shareholder if certain requirements are met.  These include a requirement that the shareholder provide notice to the Company 90 days in advance of the business proposed to be transacted and a requirement of compliance with applicable SEC requirements, if any;
 
·  
Simplify the Company’s obligation to indemnify directors by stating that the Company is obligated to indemnify directors to the maximum extent permitted by law;
 
·  
Require that notice of shareholder meetings may not be given more than 60 days in advance of the meeting;
 
·  
Require that notices for special meetings state the purpose of the meetings;
 
·  
Allow election of directors by a plurality of votes cast;
 
·  
Conform requirements for calling special meetings to Minnesota law;
 
·  
Permit participation in meetings by telephonic or similar methods;
 
·  
Permit absent directors to provide advance written consent or opposition to specific matters; and
 
·  
Conform the time limits on effectiveness of proxies to Minnesota law.
 
Not all changes are described above.  These descriptions are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Amended and Restated Bylaws, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 3.1 to this current report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
 
NO SHAREHOLDER ACTION IS REQUIRED AS TO THIS RESTATEMENT EXCEPT AS DESCRIBED BELOW.
 
Section 4.3 of the Amended and Restated Bylaws (the provisions of which were Article II, Section 1 of the prior Bylaws) will be effective only upon approval by our shareholders.  The change in Section 4.3, if adopted by the shareholders, will allow the Board of Directors to set the number of directors between one (1) and nine (9).  The Board of Directors will not be able to remove directors by setting the number of directors lower than the number then serving.
 
The change to Section 4.3 requires approval by the shareholders.  We have scheduled a special meeting of the shareholders for September 7, 2011 to approve this amendment.
 
IN THE NEXT FEW DAYS, WE WILL BE SENDING A PROXY STATEMENT TO OUR SHAREHOLDERS SOLICITING APPROVAL OF THIS AMENDMENT.
