Item 6.
Indemnification of Directors and Officers
.
Article VI of the Registrant's Restated Articles of Incorporation (the "Articles") provides that the Registrant may indemnify and hold harmless to the fullest extent permitted by the Washington Business Corporation Act (the "WBCA") or other applicable law each person who was or is made a party to or is threatened to be made a party to or is involved (including, without limitation, as a witness) in any actual or threatened action, suit or other proceeding, whether civil, criminal, derivative, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Registrant or, being or having been such a director, officer, employee or agent, he or she is or was serving at the request of the Registrant as a director, officer, employee, agent, trustee or in any other capacity of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to employee benefit plans, whether the basis of such proceeding is alleged action or omission in an official capacity or in any other capacity while serving as a director, officer, employee, agent, trustee or in any other capacity, against all expense, liability and loss (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees, judgments, fines, Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA") excise taxes or penalties and amounts to be paid in settlement) actually or reasonably incurred or suffered by such person in connection therewith.  Such indemnification may continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent of the Registrant and shall inure to the benefit of his or her heirs and personal representatives.
The Registrant may pay the expenses of a director, officer, employee or agent of the Registrant incurred in defending any such proceeding in advance of the final disposition of any such proceeding; provided, however, that the payment of such expenses in advance of the final disposition of a proceeding shall be made to or on behalf of a director, officer, employee or agent only upon delivery to the Registrant of an undertaking, by or on behalf of such director, officer, employee or agent, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined that such director, officer, employee or agent is not entitled to be indemnified under the Registrant's Restated Articles of Incorporation or otherwise, which undertaking may be unsecured and may be accepted without reference to financial ability to make repayment.
No indemnification shall be provided under the Registrant's Restated Articles of Incorporation to any such person if the Registrant is prohibited by the provisions of the WBCA or other applicable law as then in effect from paying such indemnification. The WBCA (Sections 23B.08.500 through 23B.08.600 of the Revised Code of Washington) authorizes a court to award, or a corporation's board of directors to grant, indemnity to directors and officers in terms sufficiently broad to permit such indemnification under certain circumstances for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act").
The WBCA includes a provision (Section 23B.08.320 of the Revised Code of Washington) that permits a corporation to limit a director's liability to the corporation or its shareholders for monetary damages for his or her acts or omissions as a director, except in certain circumstances involving intentional misconduct, self-dealing or illegal corporate loans or distributions, or any transaction from which the director personally benefits.  Article V of the Registrant's Restated Articles of Incorporation contains provisions implementing, to the fullest extent permitted by Washington law, such limitations on a director's liability to the Registrant and its shareholders.
II-1
The Registrant has entered into indemnification agreements with each of its directors, certain officers and other persons performing similar functions.  These agreements, among other things, require the Registrant to indemnify each director and officer to the fullest extent permitted by Washington law, including indemnification for expenses such as attorneys' fees, costs, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties, witness fees, and settlement amounts incurred by the director or officer in any action or proceeding, including any action by or in the right of the Registrant, arising out of the person's services as a director or officer of the Registrant, any subsidiary of the Registrant or any other company or enterprise to which the person provides services at the Registrant's request. The Registrant believes that its charter provisions and indemnification agreements are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and officers.
In addition, the Registrant maintains an insurance policy insuring its directors and officers for certain acts or omissions while acting in their official capacities.

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 1933 Act; (ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this 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 this 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 SEC 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; and (iii) to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or any material change to such information in this Registration Statement; provided, however, that clauses (1)(i) and (1)(ii) shall 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 SEC by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the 1934 Act that are incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement; (2) that for the purpose of determining any liability under the 1933 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; and (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 1933 Act, each filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the 1934 Act that is incorporated by reference in this 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 1933 Act may be permitted to directors, officers or controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the indemnification provisions summarized in Item 6 or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 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 1933 Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
