Item 3.03 Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.

On December 28, 2012, in conjunction with a going-private transaction approved by shareholders of the Company on December 27, 2012 (the "Going-Private Transaction"), the Company filed Articles of Amendment to its Articles of Incorporation whereby it authorized two separate and distinct classes of its common stock: Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock, where the only difference between the two classes is that the Class A Common Stock enjoys full voting rights and Class B Common Stock is only entitled to vote as a class on certain amendments to the Company's articles of incorporation and certain plans of merger as provided under Sections 180.1004 and 180.1103(4), respectively, of the Wisconsin Business Corporation Law. Pursuant to the Going-Private Transaction, shareholders of record of less than 15 shares of the Company's common stock received shares of Class B Common Stock, whereas shareholders of record of 15 or more shares of the Company's common stock had their shares renamed as Class A Common Stock.
