to which the director was not legally entitled. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The registrant&#146;s Amended and Restated By-Laws (&#147;By-Laws&#148;) and Amended and Restated
Articles of Incorporation (the &#147;Articles&#148;) provide that the registrant shall, to the full extent permitted by the WBCA, indemnify all directors and officers of the registrant. In addition, the Articles contain a provision eliminating the
personal liability of directors to the registrant or its shareholders for monetary damage arising out of a breach of fiduciary duty. Section&nbsp;23B.08.510 and Section&nbsp;23B.08.570 of the WBCA authorize a corporation to indemnify its directors,
officers, employees, or agents in terms sufficiently broad to permit such indemnification under certain circumstances for liabilities (including provisions permitting advances for reasonable expenses incurred) arising under the Securities Act. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Pursuant to Section&nbsp;23B.08.580 of the WBCA, the Board of Directors (the &#147;Board&#148;) may authorize the registrant, by a vote of a majority of a
quorum of the Board, to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the registrant, or is or was serving at the request of the registrant as a director, officer, partner, trustee,
employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise against any liability asserted against him and incurred by him in any such capacity, or arising out of his status as such, whether
or not the registrant would have the power to indemnify him against such liability under Section&nbsp;23B.08.510 or Section&nbsp;23B.08.520 of the WBCA. The Board has authorized the registrant to purchase and maintain appropriate policies of
insurance on behalf of the registrant&#146;s directors and officers against liabilities asserted against any such person arising out of his or her status as such. The Board may authorize the registrant to enter into a contract with any person who is
or was a director, officer, partner, trustee, employee or agent of the registrant or is or was serving at the request of the registrant as a director, officer, employee or agent of another partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or
other enterprise providing for indemnification rights equivalent to or, if the Board so determines, greater than those provided for in the By-Laws. The Board has authorized the registrant to enter into contracts providing for indemnification with
any person who is or was a director or officer of the registrant. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The registrant has entered into employment agreements with certain members of

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.

Item 6.
Indemnification of Directors and Officers
Section 23B.08.510 of the Washington Business
Corporation Act (as amended from time to time, the "WBCA") authorizes Washington corporations to indemnify their officers and directors under certain circumstances against expenses and liabilities incurred in legal proceedings involving
them as a result of their service as an officer or director. Section 23B.08.560 of the WBCA authorizes a corporation by provision in its articles of incorporation to agree to indemnify a director and obligate itself to advance or reimburse
expenses without regard to the provisions of Sections 23B.08.510 through .550 of the WBCA; provided, however, that no such indemnity shall be made for or on account of any (a) acts or omissions of a director that involve intentional misconduct
or a knowing violation of law, (b) conduct in violation of Section 23B.08.310 of the WBCA (relating to unlawful distributions) or (c) any transaction from which a director personally received a benefit in money, property or services
to which the director was not legally entitled.
The registrant's Amended and Restated By-Laws ("By-Laws") and Amended and Restated
Articles of Incorporation (the "Articles") provide that the registrant shall, to the full extent permitted by the WBCA, indemnify all directors and officers of the registrant. In addition, the Articles contain a provision eliminating the
personal liability of directors to the registrant or its shareholders for monetary damage arising out of a breach of fiduciary duty. Section 23B.08.510 and Section 23B.08.570 of the WBCA authorize a corporation to indemnify its directors,
officers, employees, or agents in terms sufficiently broad to permit such indemnification under certain circumstances for liabilities (including provisions permitting advances for reasonable expenses incurred) arising under the Securities Act.
Pursuant to Section 23B.08.580 of the WBCA, the Board of Directors (the "Board") may authorize the registrant, by a vote of a majority of a
quorum of the Board, to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the registrant, or is or was serving at the request of the registrant as a director, officer, partner, trustee,
employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise against any liability asserted against him and incurred by him in any such capacity, or arising out of his status as such, whether
or not the registrant would have the power to indemnify him against such liability under Section 23B.08.510 or Section 23B.08.520 of the WBCA. The Board has authorized the registrant to purchase and maintain appropriate policies of
insurance on behalf of the registrant's directors and officers against liabilities asserted against any such person arising out of his or her status as such. The Board may authorize the registrant to enter into a contract with any person who is
or was a director, officer, partner, trustee, employee or agent of the registrant or is or was serving at the request of the registrant as a director, officer, employee or agent of another partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or
other enterprise providing for indemnification rights equivalent to or, if the Board so determines, greater than those provided for in the By-Laws. The Board has authorized the registrant to enter into contracts providing for indemnification with
any person who is or was a director or officer of the registrant.
The registrant has entered into employment agreements with certain members of
management containing provisions entitling the executive to indemnification for losses incurred in the course of service to the registrant or its subsidiaries, under certain circumstances.

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) that, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration Statement; and
(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)(1)(i) and
(a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in the post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or 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 the 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 that 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 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 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.
