Not

ITEM 6. INDEMNIFICATION
OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
Sections
23B.8.500 through 23B.8.600 of the Washington Business Corporation Act (“WBCA”)
authorize a court to award, or a corporation’s board of directors to grant,
indemnification to directors and officers on terms sufficiently broad to permit
indemnification under certain circumstances for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act. The directors and officers of the corporation also may be
indemnified against liability they may incur for serving in that capacity
pursuant to a liability insurance policy maintained by the registrant for this
purpose. Section 23B.08.320 of the WBCA authorizes a corporation to limit a
director’s liability to the corporation or its shareholders for monetary damages
for acts or omissions as a director, except in certain circumstances involving
intentional misconduct, knowing violations of law or illegal corporate loans or
distributions, or any transaction from which the director personally receives a
benefit in money, property or services to which the director is not legally
entitled. Article VI of the Company’s articles of incorporation provides for
indemnification of its directors, except for (i) acts or omissions that
involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law by the director,
(ii) conduct violating WBCA 23B.08.310, or (iii) any transaction from
which the director will personally receive a benefit in money, property or
services to which the director is not legally entitled. The Company’s articles
of incorporation further provide that if the WBCA is amended to authorize
corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of
directors, then the liability of the Company’s directors shall be deemed
eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the WBCA, as so
amended. Article XI of the Company’s bylaws provides for indemnification of its
directors and executive officers, under specified circumstances, except for
(i) in connection with a proceeding by or in the right of the Company in
which a director or executive officer is adjudged liable to the Company, or
(ii) in connection with any other proceeding charging improper personal
benefit to the director or executive officer in which the director or executive
officer is adjudged liable on the basis on the basis that they received an
improper personal benefit.
The
Company has also entered into indemnity agreements with certain officers and
directors, which, among other things, provide for indemnification of the
Company’s directors and executive officers for expenses, judgments, fines and
settlement amounts incurred by any such person in any action or proceeding
arising out of such person’s services as a director or executive officer or at
the Company’s request to the full extent permitted by Washington law. In
addition, the Company maintains directors’ and officers’ liability insurance for
the benefit of its officers and directors.
The above
discussion of the Washington law and of the Company’s articles of incorporation,
bylaws, and indemnity agreements is not intended to be exhaustive and is
qualified in its entirety by such statutes, articles of incorporation, bylaws
and indemnity agreements.

ITEM 9. UNDERTAKINGS
1.
|
The
undersigned registrant hereby
undertakes:
|
(a)
To
file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a
post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
(i)
To
include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities
Act;
(ii)
To
reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date
of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment
thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change
in the information set forth in the registration
statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in
volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered
would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or
high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of
prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the
aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change
in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of
Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement.
(iii)
To
include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not
previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to
such information in the registration statement;
Provided, however,
that
paragraphs (a)(i) and (a)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be
included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in
reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to
section 13 or section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated
by reference in the registration statement.
(b)
That,
for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such
post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement
relating to the securities offered herein, and the offering of such securities
at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering
thereof.
(c)
To
remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the
securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the
offering.
(d)
That,
for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities
Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the
undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of
the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless
of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the
securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the
following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the
purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such
purchaser:
(i)
Any
preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to
the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;
(ii)
Any
free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the
undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned
registrant;
(iii)
The
portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing
material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided
by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and
(iv)
Any
other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned
registrant to the purchaser.
2.
|
The
undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining
any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the registrant’s
annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange
Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s
annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is
incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to
be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered herein,
and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the
initial bona fide offering thereof.
|
3.
|
Insofar
as indemnification for liabilities arising under 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 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.
|

to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Registrant
