ITEM 8.01 Other Events.
Item 5 of MDU Resources Group, Inc.’s (the “Company”) proxy statement, dated March 12, 2010, for the Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be held April 27, 2010 asks stockholders to ratify the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP as the Company’s independent auditors for 2010. In Item 5, the Company inadvertently stated that its draft engagement agreement with Deloitte & Touche LLP contained provisions for the waiver of the rights to pursue punitive damages awards or other forms of relief not based upon actual damages. No proposal for waiver of such rights was made in the 2010 draft engagement and will not be part of the final agreement with Deloitte & Touche LLP.
