SELLING SHAREHOLDERS
On April 1, 2004, we acquired OctigaBay Systems Corporation, or OctigaBay, through a wholly-owned subsidiary. As a result of the acquisition:
| we issued 7,560,885 shares of our common stock to certain shareholders of OctigaBay in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act pursuant to Section 3(a)(10) thereof; and |
3
| our wholly-owned Nova Scotia subsidiary issued 4,840,421 shares that are exchangeable into an equivalent number of shares of our common stock to certain other shareholders of OctigaBay in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act pursuant to Section 3(a)(10) thereof. We refer to these securities as Exchangeable Shares. |
The offer and sale of the shares of our common stock upon the exchange of the Exchangeable Shares will be made in reliance on Regulation S or Regulation D under the Securities Act and, consequently, such shares will be deemed to be restricted securities within the meaning of the Securities Act. As a partial inducement to the OctigaBay shareholders to approve our proposal to acquire their company, we agreed to file a registration statement on Form S-3, of which this prospectus forms a part, to register the resale of shares of our common stock issuable to the holders of the Exchangeable Shares upon the exchange thereof. We have agreed with the selling shareholders to prepare and file such amendments and supplements to the registration statement as may be necessary to keep the registration statement effective until the shares are no longer required to be registered for sale by the selling shareholders.
As of April 6, 2004, the selling shareholders beneficially owned an aggregate of 421,203 shares of our common stock and an aggregate of 4,840,421 Exchangeable Shares, which includes any transferee, donee, devisee, pledgee or distributee of any selling shareholder. All of the shares covered by this prospectus are being sold for the account of the selling shareholders. If all shares covered by this prospectus are sold, we have been advised that the selling shareholders will not hold any shares of our common stock, except for the 421,203 shares they currently hold and shares issued in connection with the exercise of options exercisable for shares of our common stock assumed by us in the acquisition transaction or subsequently granted to them by us. The shares covered by this prospectus include only the shares of common stock issuable to the selling shareholders upon exchange of the Exchangeable Shares.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
We are registering the shares covered by this prospectus for the selling shareholders. The selling shareholders and their pledgees, donees, transferees or other successors-in-interest may sell the shares directly or through agents, broker-dealers, or underwriters, in one or more transactions at fixed prices, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to prevailing market prices at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices. In addition, the shares may be sold by one or more of the following methods:
5
| a block trade in which a broker or dealer so engaged will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block, as principal, in order to facilitate the transaction; |
| purchases by a broker or dealer, as principal, in a market maker capacity or otherwise and resale by the broker or dealer for its account pursuant to a prospectus supplement; |
| ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which a broker solicits purchases; |
| privately negotiated transactions; or |
| any combination of these methods of sale. |
Such sales may be effected in transactions on any national securities exchange, U.S. inter-dealer quotation system or registered national securities association on which our common stock may be listed or quoted at the time of sale, in the over-the-counter market, in other ways not involving market makers or established trading markets, including direct sales to purchasers or sales effected through agents, or at the market to or through market makers or into an existing market for the shares. The selling shareholders also may sell our common stock short and deliver the shares offered hereby to close out such short positions.
The selling shareholders also may enter into derivative transactions with third parties, or sell securities not covered by this prospectus to third parties in privately negotiated transactions. If the applicable prospectus supplement indicates, in connection with any such derivative transactions, the third parties may sell shares covered by this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement, including in short sale transactions. If so, the third party may use securities pledged by a selling shareholder or borrowed from a selling shareholder or others to settle those sales or to close out any related open borrowings of stock, and may use shares received from the selling shareholder in settlement of those derivatives to close out any related open borrowings of stock. The third party in such sale transactions will be an underwriter and will be identified in a prospectus supplement or a post-effective amendment to the registration statement of which this prospectus constitutes a part.
Some or all of the common stock covered by this prospectus may be sold to or through an agent, broker-dealer or underwriter. Any shares sold in that manner will be acquired by the agent, broker-dealer or underwriter for its own account and may be resold at different times in one or more transactions, including negotiated transactions, at a fixed public offering price or at varying prices determined at the time of sale. The common stock may be offered to the public through underwriting syndicates represented by one or more managing underwriters or may be offered to the public directly by one or more underwriters. Any public offering price and any discounts or concessions allowed or paid to dealers may be changed at different times. Some of the agents, broker-dealers or underwriters and their associates may be customers of, engage in transactions with and perform services for us or the selling shareholders in the ordinary course of business. The specific number of shares of common stock to be sold in this manner and the purchase price, public offering price, names of any agent, broker-dealer or underwriter, any applicable commission or discount and other terms constituting compensation from the selling shareholder, and any other material information with respect to a particular offering will be set forth in a prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment to the registration statement of which this prospectus constitutes a part.
We will pay the costs and fees of registering the shares, but the selling shareholders will pay any brokerage commissions, discounts or other expenses relating to the sale of the shares. We have agreed
6
with the selling shareholders to indemnify each other against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act, that relate to statements or omissions in the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.
Regulation M under the Exchange Act provides that during the period that any person is engaged in the distribution, as so defined in Regulation M, of our common stock, such person generally may not purchase shares of our common stock. The selling shareholders are subject to applicable provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including, without limitation, Regulation M, which provisions may limit the timing of purchases and sales of shares of our common stock by the selling shareholders. The foregoing may affect the marketability of our common stock.
The selling shareholders may negotiate and pay brokers or dealers commissions, discounts or concessions for their services. In effecting sales, brokers or dealers engaged by the selling shareholders may allow other brokers or dealers to participate. However, the selling shareholders and any brokers or dealers involved in the sale or resale of the shares may qualify as underwriters within the meaning of the Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act.
In addition, the brokers or dealers commissions, discounts or concessions may qualify as underwriters compensation under the Securities Act. If any of the selling shareholders qualifies as an underwriter, it will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of section 5(b)(2) of the Securities Act.
In addition to selling its shares under this prospectus, the selling shareholders may:
| agree to indemnify any broker or dealer or agent against certain liabilities related to the selling of the shares, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act; |
| transfer its shares in other ways not involving market makers or established trading markets, including directly by gift, distribution, or other transfer; or |
| sell their shares under Rule 144 of the Securities Act rather than under this prospectus, if the transaction meets the requirements of Rule 144. |
Upon notification by a selling shareholder that any material arrangement has been entered into with a broker or dealer for the sale of the shares through a block trade, special offering, exchange distribution or secondary distribution or a purchase by a broker or dealer, we will file a supplement to this prospectus, if required, pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, or a post-effective amendment to the registration statement of which this prospectus constitutes a part, that discloses the material terms of the transaction.
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 us or our shareholders, excluding 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 we will indemnify our directors and,
7
by action of the board of directors, may indemnify our officers, employees and other agents to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, except for any legal proceeding that is initiated by our directors, officers, employees or agents without authorization of the board of directors.
We have been advised that, in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 for directors, officers and controlling persons is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is not enforceable.
LEGAL MATTERS
The validity of the common stock being offered will be passed upon by Kenneth W. Johnson, our Vice President Legal Affairs and General Counsel. As of the date of this prospectus, Mr. Johnson held 87,722 shares of our common stock and options to purchase 430,200 shares of our common stock.

Item 15. Indemnification of Officers and Directors.
Article VII of the Companys Restated Articles of Incorporation and Section 10 of the Companys Restated Bylaws require indemnification of directors and permits the indemnification of 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 VI 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.

Item 17. 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 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) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this 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 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; |
11
(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; 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 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 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 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. |
