4.1           Claims Procedure for Benefits.

---





(a)          Initial Request for
Information/Claim. Any request for specific information or a claim with respect to a benefit under this
Plan must be made to the Plan Administrator in writing by a Participant, or in the event of the death of a Participant, the
beneficiary of the Participant. The Plan Administrator shall not recognize an oral communication as a formal request or claim for
benefits under this Plan. Written notice of the disposition of a claim shall be furnished to the claimant within ninety (90) days
after the application for benefits is filed with the Plan Administrator, unless special circumstances require an extension of time
for processing the claim. If such an extension of time for processing is required, the Plan Administrator shall furnish the
claimant written notice of the extension prior to the termination of the initial ninety (90) day period. In no event shall such an
extension exceed a period of ninety (90) days from the end of the initial period. The extension notice shall indicate the special
circumstances requiring an extension of time and the date by which the Plan Administrator expects to render its
decision.

(b)          Appeals of Denied Claims for
Benefits. In the event that any claim for a benefit is denied in whole or in part, or any benefit is
forfeited under the provisions of this Plan, the claimant whose claim has been so denied or benefit forfeited, shall be notified
of such denial or forfeiture in writing by the Plan Administrator. The notice advising of the denial or forfeiture shall specify
the reason or reasons for denial or forfeiture, make specific reference to pertinent provisions of the Plan, shall describe any
additional material or information necessary for the claimant to perfect the claim (explaining why such material or information is
needed), and shall advise the Participant or beneficiary, as applicable, of the procedure for the appeal of such denial or
forfeiture, including a statement of the claimants right to bring a civil action under Section 502(a) of ERISA following an
adverse benefit determination on review. All appeals shall be made through the following procedure:

(i)           The claimant whose claim has been
denied or benefits forfeited shall file with the Plan Administrator a notice of desire to appeal the denial or forfeiture. Such
notice shall be filed within sixty (60) days of notification by the Plan Administrator of the claim denial or forfeiture, shall be
made in writing, and shall set forth all of the facts upon which the appeal is based. An appeal that is not timely filed shall be
barred.

(ii)          The Plan Administrator, within thirty
(30) days of receipt of the notice of appeal of the claimant, shall establish a hearing date on which the claimant (or his
attorney or other authorized representative) may make an oral presentation to the Plan Administrator in support of the appeal of
the claimant. The claimant (or representative) shall have the right to submit written or oral evidence and argument in support of
his/her claim at such hearing. The claimant shall be given not less than ten (10) days' notice of the date set for the hearing. At
the hearing (or prior thereto upon five (5) business days' written notice to the Plan Administrator), the claimant (or
representative) shall have an opportunity to review all



3



---



documents, records, and other
information which are pertinent to the claim at issue and to receive copies thereof without charge.

(iii)        The Plan Administrator shall consider the merits
of the written and oral presentations of the claimant, the merits of any facts or evidence in support of the denial of benefits,
and such other facts and circumstances as the Plan Administrator shall deem relevant. If the claimant elects not to make an oral
presentation, such election shall not be deemed adverse to his/her interest, and the Plan Administrator shall proceed as set forth
below as though an oral presentation of the contents of the claimant's written presentation had been made.

(iv)         The Plan Administrator shall render a
determination within sixth (60) days of the receipt of the appeal (unless there has been an extension of no more than sixty (60)
days due to special circumstances, provided that the delay and the special circumstances occasioning it are communicated to the
claimant in writing within the first sixty (60) day period). That determination shall be accompanied by a written statement
presented in a manner calculated to be understood by the claimant and shall include specific reasons for the determination and
specific references to the pertinent provisions of the Plan on which the determination is based and a statement of the
claimants right to bring a civil action under Section 502(a) of ERISA. The determination so rendered shall be binding upon
all parties. The Plan Administrator shall provide such access to, and copies of, documents, records, and other information
relevant to the claimants claim for benefits.

(c)          If, after exhausting the appeals process
set forth in Paragraph (b) above, the claimant elects to further appeal the decision of the Plan Administrator by exercising
his/her rights under ERISA, any other applicable law, or make any claim arising out of this Plan, the claimant shall, if elected
by the Plan Administrator, submit his/her appeal to arbitration (hereinafter Claim) in accordance with the National
Rules for the Resolution of Employment Disputes of the American Arbitration Association (AAA) then in effect. By
participation in this Plan, each claimant acknowledges and agrees that his/her right to seek relief and remedies in a federal or
state court, including, but not limited to a jury trial, shall in that event be waived. The time limitation for submitting a Claim
to arbitration shall be thirty (30) days from the date of the receipt of the final determination of the Plan Administrator.

The arbitration shall be
conducted by a single arbitrator chosen by mutual agreement of the claimant and the Plan Administrator, or absent such an
agreement, a single arbitrator shall be selected by AAA in accordance with its National Rules for the Resolution of Employment
Disputes then in effect. The arbitrator shall conduct such arbitration in accordance with the procedural and substantive law as
would be applicable if such Claim had been brought in a federal district court or state court and heard by a judge sitting without
a jury,

---



including, but not limited to, the law applicable to discovery, standards of review, relief, and remedies.  The arbitrators fees shall be borne by the Company.  The claimant shall be responsible for all filings fees and costs, but in no event in an amount greater than the filing fee that would have been applicable if the appeal had been filed in court.  The claimant and the Company shall be responsible separately for the costs and expenses of their own attorneys fees and related costs.  The arbitration shall be conducted in a mutually convenient location, and absent agreement, within fifty (50) miles of Arden Hills, Minnesota.  The decision of the arbitrator shall be in writing, final and binding upon the parties, and judgment upon such decision may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction in the State of Minnesota.

each Participant and beneficiary, if applicable, with such information as may be required by him/her for tax or other purposes in
connection with this Plan.

5.3          Required Information. A
Participant or beneficiary who is entitled to a benefit under this Plan shall furnish such forms, information and data
as requested by the Plan Administrator which is necessary or desirable for the proper administration of this Plan. A failure on
the part of any Participant or beneficiary to comply with such request within a reasonable period of time shall be sufficient
grounds for delay in the payment of benefits until the form, information or data requested is received. The records and/or
determination of the Company as to a period or periods of employment, termination of employment and the reason therefore, leaves
of absences, reemployment, and post-employment activity shall be conclusive on all persons.

|-- | ------------------

7.1          Severability.

None of the aforementioned persons or entities associated with the operation of this Plan shall have any duty to inquire into any such data, and all may rely on such data being current to the date of reference, it being the duty of each Participant and beneficiary to advise the appropriate parties of any change in such data.

7.3          Titles and Headings.  The titles and headings of the Sections in this instrument are for convenience of reference only and, in the event of any conflict, the text rather than such titles or headings shall control.

the Company, except as may otherwise be required under the terms of such employee benefit plan.
