          The Company and Executive are parties to an Amended and Restated Management

          In October 2004, the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 (the &#147;Act&#148;)
          was enacted, Section 885 of which Act added new provisions to the Internal
          Revenue Code pertaining to deferred compensation. </FONT></P>

          The Treasury Department has issued transition guidance, revised transition
          guidance and proposed regulations regarding the deferred compensation provisions
          of the Act, which permit service providers and service recipients a transition
          period to modify existing deferred compensation arrangements to bring them in
          compliance with the Act. </FONT></P>

          The parties agree that it is in their mutual best interests to modify and
          clarify the terms and conditions of the Prior Agreement, as set forth in this
          Agreement and in that certain Management Agreement of even date herewith, with
          the full intention of complying with the Act so as to avoid the excise taxes and
          penalties imposed under the Act. </FONT></P>

          Executive is a key member of the management of the Company and is expected to
          devote substantial skill and effort to the affairs of the Company, and the
          Company desires to recognize the significant personal contribution that
          Executive makes and is expected to continue to make to further the best
          interests of the Company and its shareholders. </FONT></P>

          It is desirable and in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders to
          continue to obtain the benefits of Executive&#146;s services and attention to
          the affairs of the Company. </FONT></P>

          It is desirable and in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders to
          protect confidential, proprietary and trade secret information of the Company,
          to prevent unfair competition by former executives of the Company following
          separation of their employment with the Company and to secure cooperation from
          former executives with respect to matters related to their employment with the
          Company. </FONT></P>

          Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be
          required to perform it if no such succession had taken place. Failure of the
          Company to obtain such agreement prior to the effectiveness of any such
          succession (other than in the case of a merger or consolidation) shall be a
          breach of this Agreement and shall entitle Executive to compensation from the
          Company in the same amount and on the same terms as Executive would be entitled
          hereunder if Executive had otherwise terminated Executive&#146;s employment for
          Good Reason, except that for purposes of implementing the foregoing, the date on
          which any such succession becomes effective shall be deemed the Termination
          Date. As used in this Agreement, &#147;Company&#148; shall mean the Company as
          hereinbefore defined and any Successor that is required to execute and deliver
          the agreement provided for in this Section&nbsp;6(b) or that otherwise becomes

          consent to jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Minnesota and/or the
          federal district courts, District of Minnesota, for the purpose of resolving all
