USE OF PROCEEDS
Unless otherwise indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, we anticipate that net proceeds from the sales of the shares of common stock and/or common stock purchase warrants offered under this prospectus will be used for general corporate purposes which may include, but are not limited to, working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and the repayment or refinancing of outstanding indebtedness. The prospectus supplement relating to specific sales of our common stock and/or common stock purchase warrants will set forth the net proceeds we receive from the sales. Pending the application of net proceeds, we expect to invest the proceeds in short-term, interest bearing instruments or other investment-grade securities.
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
General. We may sell the shares of common stock and/or common stock purchase warrants offered hereby directly to one or more purchasers, through agents on our behalf, or through underwriters or dealers designated by us from time to time. We may distribute the shares of common stock and/or common stock purchase warrants from time to time in one or more transactions at a fixed price or prices (which may be changed from time to time), at market prices prevailing at the times of sale, at prices related to these prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices. The applicable prospectus supplement will describe the terms of the offering of the securities, including:
| the name or names of any underwriters, if any; |
-5-
| the purchase price of the shares of common stock and/or common stock purchase warrants and the proceeds we will receive from the sale; | ||
| any underwriting discounts and other items constituting underwriters compensation; and | ||
| any discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers. |
Only underwriters named in the prospectus supplement, if any, are underwriters of the securities offered with the prospectus supplement.
Sales Directly to Purchasers. We may enter into agreements directly with one or more purchasers. Such agreements may provide for the sale of our common stock and/or common stock purchase warrants at a fixed price, based on the market price of the common stock or otherwise. Alternatively, such agreements may provide for the sale of common stock and/or common stock purchase warrants over a period of time by means of draw downs at our election which the purchaser would be obligated to accept under specified conditions. Under this form of agreement, we may sell common stock and/or common stock purchase warrants at a per share price which is discounted from the market price. Such agreements also may provide for sales of common stock based on combinations of or variations from these methods.
Use of Underwriters, Agents and Dealers. If underwriters are used in the sale, they will acquire the securities for their own account and may resell them from time to time in one or more transactions at a fixed public offering price or at varying prices determined at the time of sale. We may offer the shares of common stock and/or common stock purchase warrants to the public through underwriting syndicates represented by managing underwriters or by underwriters without a syndicate. Unless otherwise provided in the applicable prospectus supplement, the underwriters will be obligated to purchase all the shares of common stock and/or common stock purchase warrants offered by the prospectus supplement, subject to certain conditions. Any public offering price and any discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers may change from time to time.
We may sell shares of common stock and/or common stock purchase warrants directly or through agents we designate from time to time. We will name any agent involved in the offering and sale of our common stock and/or common stock purchase warrants and we will describe any commissions we will pay the agent in the prospectus supplement. Unless the prospectus supplement states otherwise, our agent will act on a best-efforts basis for the period of its appointment.
We may sell the securities to dealers, as principals, from time to time. Any dealer may resell the securities to the public at varying prices to be determined by the dealer at the time of resale. The name of any dealer and the terms of the transaction will be set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement with respect to the securities being offered.
We may authorize agents or underwriters to solicit offers by certain types of institutional investors to purchase securities from us at the public offering price set forth in the prospectus supplement pursuant to delayed delivery contracts providing for payment and delivery on a specified
-6-
date in the future. We will describe the conditions to these contracts and the commissions we must pay for solicitation of these contracts in the prospectus supplement.
Deemed Underwriters. In connection with the sale of the securities offered with this prospectus, underwriters, dealers or agents may receive compensation from us or from purchasers of the securities for whom they may act as agents, in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions. The underwriters, dealers or agents which participate in the distribution of the securities may be deemed to be underwriters under the Securities Act and any discounts or commissions received by them and any profit on the resale of the securities received by them may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. Anyone deemed to be an underwriter under the Securities Act may be subject to statutory liabilities, including Sections 11, 12 and 17 of the Securities Act and Rule 10b-5 under the Securities Exchange Act.
Indemnification and Other Relationships. We may provide agents, dealers and underwriters with indemnification against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or contribution with respect to payments that the agents, dealers or underwriters may make with respect to such liabilities. Agents, dealers and underwriters may engage in transactions with, or perform services for, us in the ordinary course of business.
Listing of Securities. Except as indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, the securities are not expected to be listed on a securities exchange or market, except for the common stock which is listed on the Nasdaq National Market, and any underwriters or dealers will not be obligated to make a market in securities. We cannot predict the activities or liquidity of any trading in the securities.
DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
Our Articles of Incorporation authorize us to issue 100,000,000 shares of common stock, $.01 par value per share, and 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $.01 par value per share. As of May 23, 2002, there were 45,641,974 shares of common stock, and 3,125,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, outstanding.
Common Stock. All outstanding common stock is, and any stock issued under this prospectus will be, fully paid and nonassessable. Subject to the rights of the holders of our outstanding preferred stock, if any, holders of common stock:
| are entitled to any dividends validly declared; | |
| will share ratably in our net assets in the event of a liquidation; and | |
| are entitled to one vote per share. |
-7-
The common stock has no conversion rights. Holders of common stock have no preemption, subscription, redemption, or call rights related to those shares.
Preferred Stock. The Board of Directors has the authority, without further action by the shareholders, to issue up to 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more series and to fix the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions thereof, including dividend rights, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of redemption, liquidation preferences, sinking fund terms and the number of shares constituting any series or the designation of such series, without any further vote or action by the shareholders. The issuance of preferred stock could adversely affect the voting power of holders of common stock and the likelihood that such holders will receive dividend payments and payments upon liquidation may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control, which could have a depressive effect on the market price of our common stock.
-8-
We currently have 3,125,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding, all of which are held by NEC Corporation. The following describes the principal terms of the Series A Preferred Stock.
Dividends. The Series A Preferred Stock accrues a cumulative dividend at the rate of 2% per annum, payable when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors. The dividend is payable in cash, except that upon the conversion of Series A Preferred Stock into common stock, the dividend is payable in shares of common stock.
Liquidation. The Series A Preferred Stock has a liquidation preference equal to $8.00 per share of Series A Stock, plus any accrued but unpaid dividends. In the event we are liquidated, the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock would be entitled to receive in cash the liquidation preference in full before any proceeds of the liquidation were paid to the holders of common stock. In the event of a sale by us of substantially all of our assets or an acquisition of us in which holders of our voting stock prior to the acquisition own less than 50% of the voting power of the surviving entity after the acquisition (a Sale Transaction), the holders of Series A Stock may elect to receive the liquidation preference, and in that event the liquidation preference would be paid in the kind of consideration paid to holders of common stock in the Sale Transaction.
Conversion. The Series A Preferred Stock is not convertible into common stock unless the Series A Preferred Stock is sold or in the event of a Sale Transaction. NEC Corporation has agreed not to sell the Series A Preferred Stock until May 10, 2003, unless a distribution agreement between NEC and ourselves is sooner terminated. Any shares of Series A Preferred Stock that are sold by NEC or its affiliates automatically convert into common stock. In the event of a Sale Transaction, if the holders of Series A Preferred Stock do not elect to receive the liquidation preference, the holders of Series A Preferred Stock receive the same consideration as if the Series A Stock had converted into common stock. The current conversion price is $7.97 per share, subject to anti-dilution adjustments, and therefore the Series A Preferred Stock is presently convertible in full into 3,136,763 shares of common stock. We have agreed, after the Series A Preferred Stock can be sold, to register the underlying common stock with the Securities and Exchange Commission for resale upon the request of NEC.
Redemption. Neither we nor the holders of Series A Stock have any redemption rights with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock.
Voting. The holders of Series A Preferred Stock do not have any voting rights, except on matters that would adversely affect the Series A Preferred Stock, authorize additional shares of Series A Preferred Stock, authorize any equity securities senior to the Series A Preferred Stock, or as otherwise required by law.
Common Stock Purchase Warrants. The applicable prospectus supplement will describe the following terms of common stock purchase warrants offered under this prospectus:
-9-
| the title; | |
| the issue price or prices; | |
| if applicable, the number of such warrants issued with each share of common stock; | |
| the exercise price per share and the number of shares receivable upon exercise of each warrant; | |
| any provisions for adjustment of the number or amount of shares of common stock receivable upon exercise of the warrants or the exercise price; | |
| if applicable, the date on and after which the warrants and the related common stock will be separately transferable; | |
| if applicable, a discussion of the material U.S. federal income tax considerations applicable to the exercise of the warrants; | |
| any other terms, including terms, procedures and limitations relating to exchange and exercise; | |
| the commencement and expiration dates of the right to exercise; and | |
| the maximum or minimum number which may be exercised at any time. |
Each warrant will entitle the holder to purchase for cash or in consideration of canceling a portion of the warrant such shares of common stock at the applicable exercise price set forth in, or determined as described in, the applicable prospectus supplement. Warrants may be exercised at any time up to the close of business on the expiration date set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement. After the close of business on the expiration date, unexercised warrants will become void.
Warrants may be exercised by delivering to us or any other officer indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement (a) the warrant certificate properly completed and duly executed and (b) payment of the amount due upon exercise or notice of cancellation of a portion of the warrant. As soon as practicable following the exercise, we will forward the shares of common stock purchasable upon the exercise. If less than all of the warrants represented by a warrant certificate are exercised, a new warrant certificate will be issued for the remaining warrants.
Transfer Agent. Mellon Investor Services LLC is the transfer agent and registrar for our common stock. We act as transfer agent and registrar for our preferred stock and common stock purchase warrants.
LEGAL MATTERS
-10-
The validity of the securities we are offering will be passed upon by Kenneth W. Johnson, our Vice President Legal and General Counsel. As of the date of this prospectus, Mr. Johnson held 40,914 shares of our common stock, options to purchase 310,000 shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase 21,637 shares of our common stock.

EXPERTS
The financial statements incorporated in this prospectus by reference from the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001 have been audited by Deloitte & Touche LLP, independent auditors, as stated in their report, which is incorporated herein by reference, and have been so incorporated in reliance upon the report of such firm given upon their authority as experts in accounting and auditing.
LIMITATION OF LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION
Our Restated Articles of Incorporation provide that, to the fullest extent permitted by the Washington Business Corporation Act, our directors will not be liable for monetary damages to Cray or its shareholders, excluding, however, liability for acts or omissions involving intentional misconduct or knowing violations of law, illegal distributions or transactions from which the director receives benefits to which the director is not legally entitled. Our Restated Bylaws provide that Cray will indemnify its directors and, by action of the Board of Directors, may indemnify its officers, employees and other agents to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, except for any legal proceeding that is initiated by such directors, officers, employees or agents without authorization of the Board of Directors.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of Cray pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
STATEMENTS REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
This prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus contain forward-looking statements within the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 with respect to our financial condition, results of operations and business. Words such as anticipates, expects, intends, plans, believes, seeks, estimates and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results contemplated by the forward-looking statements. The section entitled Factors That Could Affect Future Results that appears in our Annual Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2002, as updated from time to time in our subsequent quarterly and annual reports, describe the factors that could cause these differences.

PART II
INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN THE PROSPECTUS
Item 14. Other Expenses of Issuance and Distribution.
All expenses in connection with the issuance and distribution of the securities being registered will be paid by the Company. The following is an itemized statement of these expenses (all amounts are estimated except for the SEC registration fee):
SEC Registration fee |
$ | 1,840 | ||
Legal fees |

Accountants Fees |
$ | 4,000 | ||

Item 15. Indemnification of Officers and Directors.
Article XII of the Companys Restated Articles of Incorporation and Section 11 of the Companys Restated Bylaws require indemnification of directors, officers, employees and agents of the Company to the fullest extent permitted by the Washington Business Corporation Act (the Act). Sections 23B.08.500 through 23B.08.600 of the Act authorize a court to award, or a corporations 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.
Section 23B.08.320 of the Act authorizes a corporation to limit a directors liability to the corporation or its shareholders for monetary damages for 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 receives a benefit in money, property or services to which the director is not legally entitled. Article XI of the Companys Restated Articles of Incorporation contains provisions implementing, to the fullest extent permitted by Washington law, such limitations on a directors liability to the Company and its shareholders.

(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 of 1933; | ||
(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) that, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this Registration Statement; and |
II-2
(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 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 post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the shares offered therein, and the offering of such shares 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 shares 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 of 1933, each filing of the registrants annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the shares offered therein, and the offering of such shares 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 shares 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. |
