ITEM 5.02  ELECTION OF DIRECTOR
 
On September 25, 2006, the Company’s board of directors elected Robert R. Rowbal to fill the vacancy created by the resignation of Gary Jamison. Mr. Jamison’s resignation was reported in the Company’s current report on Form 8-K filed on September 18, 2006.

Mr. Rowbal, Age 42, is currently the Business Unit Controller for the Specialty Foods Group of Hormel Foods Corporation (HFC). Mr. Rowbal joined HFC in June of 1988 and has held various positions at HFC including: Internal Auditor; Manager of Cost and Stock - Atlanta; Cost Analyst - Grocery Products, Cured & Smoked Meats, and Fresh Pork: Cost Manager - Austin Plant, and Plant Controller - Rochelle Foods in addition to his current position. Mr. Rowbal graduated from Minnesota State University at Mankato with a B.A. in accounting.

Mr. Rowbal was not elected pursuant to any arrangement or understanding. Previously, HFC had the right by agreement to designate an individual to be nominated to the Company’s Board of Directors. This right lapsed, however, when HFC converted its shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock to Common Stock.
