<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In a previous Registration Statement on Form&nbsp;S-8 (Registration No.&nbsp;333-63995), which was filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission on September&nbsp;22, 1998 (the "Prior Registration Statement") under our
former name, SCC Communications Corp., we previously registered a total of 2,101,055 shares of common stock that are issuable under our 1998 Stock Incentive Plan and the Employee Stock Purchase Plan.
In accordance with General Instruction E to Form&nbsp;S-8, this Registration Statement on Form&nbsp;S-8 incorporates our Prior Registration Statement on
Form&nbsp;S-8 by reference and registers an additional 3,144,804 shares of common stock, representing the increase in the number of shares of common stock that are currently issuable
under our 1998 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended, and Employee Stock Purchase Plan. Furthermore, we have paid the filing fee required by Rule&nbsp;457 only with respect to the additional 3,144,804
shares. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
accordance with the instructional Note to Part&nbsp;I of Form&nbsp;S-8, the information specified by Part&nbsp;I of Form&nbsp;S-8 has been omitted from
this Registration Statement on Form&nbsp;S-8 for offers of our common stock pursuant to employee benefit plans. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
accordance with Rule&nbsp;437a, as promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, our financial statements as of December&nbsp;31, 2001, 2000 and 1999 have been incorporated by
reference in the information specified by Part&nbsp;I of is prospectus, and elsewhere in this Registration Statement on Form&nbsp;S-8, in reliance upon the reports of Arthur Andersen
LLP, independent public accountants, and upon the authority of that firm as experts in auditing and accounting. We have not been able to obtain, after reasonable efforts, the written consent of Arthur
Andersen, as required under Section&nbsp;7 of the Securities Act of 1933, to the inclusion of their reports in this prospectus, and we have dispensed with the requirement to file their consent in
reliance on Rule&nbsp;437a. As a result, holders of our securities, whether acquired under employee benefit plans, on the open market, or otherwise, may have no effective remedy against Arthur
Andersen LLP, our former independent accountants, if a material misstatement or omission in the financial statements incorporated by reference in this prospectus. In particular, because of this lack
of consent, holders of our securities will not be able to sue Arthur Andersen under Section&nbsp;11(a)(4) or other sections of the Securities Act of 1933 for any untrue statements of material fact
contained in the financial statements audited by Arthur Andersen or any omissions to state a material fact required to be stated in those financial statements. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Section&nbsp;145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL") permits indemnification of directors, officers, employees and agents of
corporations under certain conditions and subject to certain limitations. The Registrant's bylaws include provisions to require the Registrant to indemnify its directors and executive officers to the
fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, including circumstances in which indemnification is otherwise discretionary; the bylaws further permit the Registrant to indemnify other officers, employees and
agents as permitted by the DGCL. The Registrant has entered into
indemnification agreements with each of its directors and officers to effect such indemnification obligations. In addition, the Registrant maintains directors' and officers' liability coverage to
insure its indemnification of its directors and officers. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Insofar
as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers, or persons controlling the Registrant, the Registrant has been
informed that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable. No dealer, salesman or any other person
has been authorized in connection with this Offering to give any information or to make any representations other than those contained in this prospectus and, if given or made, such information or
representations must not be relied upon as having been authorized by the Registrant. This prospectus does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any of the securities
offered hereby in any jurisdiction in which such offer or solicitation is not authorized or in which the person making such offer or solicitation is not qualified to do so or to any person to whom it
is unlawful to make such an offer or solicitation. Neither the delivery of this prospectus nor any sale made hereunder shall, under any circumstances, create an implication that there has been no
change in the circumstances of the Registrant or the facts herein set forth since the date hereof. </FONT></P>

range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule&nbsp;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. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii)&nbsp;&nbsp;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; </FONT></P>

</UL>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>provided, however,</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2> that paragraphs (a)(1)(i)&nbsp;and (a)(1)(ii)&nbsp;do not apply if the registration statement is on Form&nbsp;S-3,
Form&nbsp;S-8 or Form&nbsp;F-3, 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&nbsp;13 or Section&nbsp;15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the
registration statement. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2)&nbsp;&nbsp;That,
for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, 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 </FONT><FONT SIZE=2><I>bona
fide</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2> offering thereof. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3)&nbsp;&nbsp;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. </FONT></P>

</UL>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;The
undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the Registrant's annual
report pursuant to section&nbsp;13(a) or section&nbsp;15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to
section&nbsp;15(d) of the 1934 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 </FONT><FONT SIZE=2><I>bona fide</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2> offering thereof. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;Insofar
as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 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 of 1933 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 of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Pursuant
to Rule 416, Intrado Inc. is also registering such indeterminate number of shares of common stock that may be issuable under the 1998 Stock Incentive Plan or
the Employee Stock Purchase Plan by reason of stock splits, stock dividends or similar transactions.
(2)
Estimated
solely for the purpose of calculating the registration fee pursuant to Rule 457(c) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. This calculation is based on the
average of the high and low prices of the Registrant's common stock as reported on the Nasdaq National Market on Wednesday, August 28, 2002.
EXPLANATORY NOTES
In a previous Registration Statement on Form S-8 (Registration No. 333-63995), which was filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission on September 22, 1998 (the "Prior Registration Statement") under our
former name, SCC Communications Corp., we previously registered a total of 2,101,055 shares of common stock that are issuable under our 1998 Stock Incentive Plan and the Employee Stock Purchase Plan.
In accordance with General Instruction E to Form S-8, this Registration Statement on Form S-8 incorporates our Prior Registration Statement on
Form S-8 by reference and registers an additional 3,144,804 shares of common stock, representing the increase in the number of shares of common stock that are currently issuable
under our 1998 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended, and Employee Stock Purchase Plan. Furthermore, we have paid the filing fee required by Rule 457 only with respect to the additional 3,144,804
shares.
In
accordance with the instructional Note to Part I of Form S-8, the information specified by Part I of Form S-8 has been omitted from
this Registration Statement on Form S-8 for offers of our common stock pursuant to employee benefit plans.
In
accordance with Rule 437a, as promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, our financial statements as of December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999 have been incorporated by
reference in the information specified by Part I of is prospectus, and elsewhere in this Registration Statement on Form S-8, in reliance upon the reports of Arthur Andersen
LLP, independent public accountants, and upon the authority of that firm as experts in auditing and accounting. We have not been able to obtain, after reasonable efforts, the written consent of Arthur
Andersen, as required under Section 7 of the Securities Act of 1933, to the inclusion of their reports in this prospectus, and we have dispensed with the requirement to file their consent in
reliance on Rule 437a. As a result, holders of our securities, whether acquired under employee benefit plans, on the open market, or otherwise, may have no effective remedy against Arthur
Andersen LLP, our former independent accountants, if a material misstatement or omission in the financial statements incorporated by reference in this prospectus. In particular, because of this lack
of consent, holders of our securities will not be able to sue Arthur Andersen under Section 11(a)(4) or other sections of the Securities Act of 1933 for any untrue statements of material fact
contained in the financial statements audited by Arthur Andersen or any omissions to state a material fact required to be stated in those financial statements.

on September 22, 1998 under the Registrant's former name, SCC Communications Corp. (incorporated by reference pursuant to General Instruction E to Form S-8).
In
addition, all documents filed by the Registrant pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 after the date of this registration statement
and prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment which indicates that all securities offered hereby have been sold or which deregisters all such securities then remaining unsold,
shall be deemed to be incorporated in this
registration statement by reference and to be a part hereof from the date of filing of such documents. Any statement contained in a document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference
herein shall be deemed to be modified or superseded for purposes of this registration statement to the extent that a statement contained herein or in any subsequently filed document which also is or
is deemed to be incorporated by reference herein modifies or supersedes such statement.
Item 4. Description of Securities.
Not applicable.
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
J. David Hershberger, Corporate and Securities Counsel of Intrado Inc., has provided an opinion regarding the validity of the securities to be issued under
this Registration Statement on Form S-8. As of the date of this Registration Statement, Mr. Hershberger beneficially owns 4,350 shares of Intrado common stock.
The
financial statements as of December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999 have been incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement on Form S-8 in reliance upon
the reports of Arthur Andersen LLP, independent public accountants, and upon the authority of that firm as experts in auditing and accounting. The Registrant has not been able to obtain, after
reasonable efforts, the written consent of Arthur Andersen to the inclusion of their reports in this Registration Statement, and we have dispensed with the requirement to file their consent in
reliance on Rule 437a, as promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933. Please refer to the third paragraph under the caption "Explanatory Notes" for a discussion of the risks associated with
our inability to obtain, after reasonable efforts, Arthur Andersen's written consent.
Item 6. Indemnification of Officers and Directors.
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL") permits indemnification of directors, officers, employees and agents of
corporations under certain conditions and subject to certain limitations. The Registrant's bylaws include provisions to require the Registrant to indemnify its directors and executive officers to the
fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, including circumstances in which indemnification is otherwise discretionary; the bylaws further permit the Registrant to indemnify other officers, employees and
agents as permitted by the DGCL. The Registrant has entered into
indemnification agreements with each of its directors and officers to effect such indemnification obligations. In addition, the Registrant maintains directors' and officers' liability coverage to
insure its indemnification of its directors and officers.
Insofar
as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers, or persons controlling the Registrant, the Registrant has been
informed that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable. No dealer, salesman or any other person
has been authorized in connection with this Offering to give any information or to make any representations other than those contained in this prospectus and, if given or made, such information or
representations must not be relied upon as having been authorized by the Registrant. This prospectus does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any of the securities
offered hereby in any jurisdiction in which such offer or solicitation is not authorized or in which the person making such offer or solicitation is not qualified to do so or to any person to whom it
is unlawful to make such an offer or solicitation. Neither the delivery of this prospectus nor any sale made hereunder shall, under any circumstances, create an implication that there has been no
change in the circumstances of the Registrant or the facts herein set forth since the date hereof.

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
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)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the registration statement is on Form S-3,
Form S-8 or Form F-3, 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 Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the
registration statement.
(2)  That,
for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, 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 of 1933, each filing of the Registrant's annual
report pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to
section 15(d) of the 1934 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 of 1933 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 of 1933 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 of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the Registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the
requirements for filing on Form S-8 and has duly caused this Amendment to Registration Statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the
City of Boulder, State of Colorado, on August 30, 2002.
