ITEM 30.

Indemnification.

Article VIII of Registrant’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation and Article IX of Registrant’s Bylaws (Exhibits (a)(1) through (b), which are incorporated herein by reference) provide that the Registrant shall indemnify and advance expenses to its currently acting and its former directors and officers to the fullest extent that indemnification of directors and officers is permitted by the Wisconsin Statutes. The Board of Directors may by bylaw, resolution or agreement make further provision for indemnification of directors, officers, employees and agents to the fullest extent permitted by the Wisconsin Statutes; provided however, that nothing therein shall be construed to protect any director or officer of the Registrant against any liability to the Registrant or its security holders to which he would otherwise be subject by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence, or reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of his office.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), may be permitted to directors, officers, and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer, or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter

has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question of whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

The Registrant will not advance attorneys’ fees or other expenses incurred by the person to be indemnified unless the Registrant shall have received an undertaking by or on behalf of such person to repay the advance unless it is ultimately determined that such person is entitled to indemnification and one of the following conditions shall have occurred: (i) such person shall provide security for his undertaking, (ii) the Registrant shall be insured against losses arising by reason of any lawful advances, or (iii) a majority of the disinterested, non-party directors of the Registrant, or an independent legal counsel in a written opinion, shall have determined that based on a review of readily available facts there is reason to believe that such person ultimately will be found entitled to indemnification.

Registrant and its directors and officers are insured under policies of insurance maintained by Registrant, within the limits and subject to the limitations of the policies, against certain expenses in connection with the defense of actions, suits or proceedings, and certain liabilities that might be imposed as a result of such actions, suits or proceedings, to which they are parties by reason of being or having been such directors or officers. The policies expressly exclude coverage for any director or officer whose personal dishonesty, fraudulent breach of trust, lack of good faith, or intention to deceive or defraud has been finally adjudicated or may be established or who willfully fails to act prudently.

The Registrant also has entered into indemnification agreements with each of its directors. The indemnification agreements provide that the Registrant will indemnify and advance expenses to the director if the director is or is threatened to be made a party to a proceeding by reason of the director’s corporate status, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. The indemnification agreements specifically provide that a director will not be indemnified for any acts or omissions giving rise to any claims asserted against the director that constituted “disabling conduct” (e.g., willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of his office).
