Item 6.
Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
The Registrant is a Washington corporation. The Registrant’s Articles of Incorporation limit the liability of directors to the fullest extent permitted by the Washington Business Corporation Act. Consequently, the Registrant’s directors will not be personally liable to the Registrant or its shareholders for monetary damages for conduct as directors, except for liability for:
intentional misconduct;
knowing violations of law;
unlawful distributions as provided in 23B.08.310 of the Revised Code of Washington; or
transactions from which the director will personally receive a benefit in money, property, or services to which the director is not legally entitled.

3



The Registrant’s Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws also provide that the Registrant shall indemnify any individual made a party to a proceeding because that individual is or was a director or officer of the Registrant. The Registrant must also advance or reimburse reasonable expenses incurred by such individual prior to the final disposition of the proceeding to the fullest extent permitted by the Washington Business Corporation Act. No repeal of or modification to the Registrant’s Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws may adversely affect any indemnification rights of a director or officer of the Registrant who is or was a director or officer at the time of such repeal or modification. See also the undertakings set out in response to Item 9 hereof.
Item 7.

Not applicable.
Item 8.
Exhibits.

The exhibits to this registration statement are listed on the Exhibit Index attached hereto and incorporated by reference herein.
Item 9.
Undertakings.
A. The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) 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 the 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 percent 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; providedhowever, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) above do not apply if the Registration Statement is on Form S-8 and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic 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.
(2) 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 therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3) 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.
B. 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 therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

C. 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 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 hereby, 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.
