Dear Sirs:
1. Introductory. ONYX Software Corporation, a Washington corporation
("Company"), proposes to issue and sell ___________ shares ("Firm Securities")
of its Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share ("Securities"), and also proposes
to issue and sell to the Underwriters, at the option of the Underwriters, an
aggregate of not more than __________ additional shares ("Optional Securities")
of its Securities as set forth below. The Firm Securities and the Optional
Securities are herein collectively called the "Offered Securities." The Company
hereby agrees with the several Underwriters named in Schedule A hereto
("Underwriters") as follows:
2. Representations and Warranties of the Company. The Company represents
and warrants to, and agrees with, the several Underwriters that:
(a) A registration statement (No. 333-68559) relating to the Offered
Securities, including a form of prospectus, has been filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission ("Commission") and either (i) has been
declared effective under the Securities Act of 1933 ("Act") and is not
proposed to be amended or (ii) is proposed to be amended by amendment or
post-effective amendment. If such registration statement ("initial
registration statement") has been declared effective, either (i) an
additional registration statement ("additional registration statement")
relating to the Offered Securities may have been filed with the Commission
pursuant to Rule 462(b) ("Rule 462(b)") under the Act and, if so filed, has
become effective upon filing pursuant to such Rule, and the Offered
Securities all have been duly registered under the Act pursuant to the
initial registration statement and, if applicable, the additional
registration statement or (ii) such an additional registration statement is
proposed to be filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 462(b) and will
become effective upon filing pursuant to such Rule and upon such filing the
Offered Securities will all have been duly registered under the Act
pursuant to the initial registration statement and such additional
registration statement. If the Company does not propose to amend the
initial registration statement or if an additional registration statement
has been filed and the Company does not propose to amend it, and if any
post-effective amendment to either such registration statement has been
filed with the Commission prior to the execution and delivery of this
Agreement, the most recent amendment (if any) to each such registration
statement has been declared effective by the Commission or has become
effective upon filing pursuant to Rule 462(c) ("Rule 462(c)") under the Act
or, in the case of the additional registration statement, Rule 462(b). For
purposes of this Agreement, "Effective Time" with respect to the initial
registration statement or, if filed prior to the execution and delivery of
this Agreement, the additional registration
statement means (i) if the Company has advised the Representatives that it
does not propose to amend such registration statement, the date and time as
of which such registration statement, or the most recent post-effective
amendment thereto (if any) filed prior to the execution and delivery of
this Agreement, was declared effective by the Commission or has become
effective upon filing pursuant to Rule 462(c), or (ii) if the Company has
advised the Representatives that it proposes to file an amendment or post-
effective amendment to such registration statement, the date and time as of
which such registration statement, as amended by such amendment or post-
effective amendment, as the case may be, is declared effective by the
Commission. If an additional registration statement has not been filed
prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement but the Company has
advised the Representatives that it proposes to file one, "Effective Time"
with respect to such additional registration statement means the date and
time as of which such registration statement is filed and becomes effective
pursuant to Rule 462(b). "Effective Date" with respect to the initial
registration statement or the additional registration statement (if any)
means the date of the Effective Time thereof. The initial registration
statement, as amended at its Effective Time, including all information
contained in the additional registration statement (if any) and deemed to
be a part of the initial registration statement as of the Effective Time of
the additional registration statement pursuant to the General Instructions
of the Form on which it is filed and including all information (if any)
deemed to be a part of the initial registration statement as of its
Effective Time pursuant to Rule 430A(b) ("Rule 430A(b)") under the Act, is
hereinafter referred to as the "Initial Registration Statement." The
additional registration statement, as amended at its Effective Time,
including the contents of the initial registration statement incorporated
by reference therein and including all information (if any) deemed to be a
part of the additional registration statement as of its Effective Time
pursuant to Rule 430A(b), is hereinafter referred to as the "Additional
Registration Statement." The Initial Registration Statement and the
Additional Registration Statement are herein referred to collectively as
the "Registration Statements" and individually as a "Registration
Statement." The form of prospectus relating to the Offered Securities, as
first filed with the Commission pursuant to and in accordance with Rule
424(b) ("Rule 424(b)") under the Act or (if no such filing is required) as
included in a Registration Statement, is hereinafter referred to as the
"Prospectus." No document has been or will be prepared or distributed in
reliance on Rule 434 under the Act.
(b) If the Effective Time of the Initial Registration Statement is
prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement: (i) on the Effective
Date of the Initial Registration Statement, the Initial Registration
Statement conformed in all material respects to the requirements of the Act
and the rules and regulations of the Commission ("Rules and Regulations")
and did not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to
state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
the statements therein not misleading, (ii) on the Effective Date of the
Additional Registration Statement (if any), each Registration Statement
conformed, or will conform, in all material respects to the requirements of
the Act and the Rules and Regulations and did not include, or will not
include, any untrue statement of a material fact and did not omit, or will
not omit, to state any material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and (iii) on the
date of this Agreement, the Initial Registration Statement and, if the
Effective Time of the Additional Registration Statement is prior to the
execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Additional Registration
Statement each conforms, and at the time of filing of the Prospectus
pursuant to Rule 424(b) or (if no such filing is required) at the Effective
Date of the Additional Registration Statement in which the Prospectus is
included, each Registration Statement and the Prospectus will conform, in
all material respects to the requirements of the Act and the Rules and
Regulations, and neither of such documents includes, or will include, any
untrue statement of a material fact or omits, or will omit, to state any
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading. If the Effective Time of the Initial
Registration Statement is subsequent to the execution and delivery of this
Agreement: on the Effective Date of the Initial Registration Statement, the
Initial Registration Statement and the Prospectus will conform in all
material respects to the requirements of the Act and the Rules and
Regulations, neither of such documents will include any untrue statement of
a material fact or will omit to state any material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading,
and no Additional Registration Statement has been or will be filed. The
two preceding sentences do not apply to statements in or omissions from a
Registration Statement or the Prospectus based upon written information
furnished to the Company by any Underwriter through the Representatives
specifically for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only
such information is that described as such in Section 7(b) hereof.

3. Purchase, Sale and Delivery of Offered Securities. On the basis of the

Underwriters, and the Underwriters agree, severally and not jointly, to purchase
from the Company, at a purchase price of $______ per share, the respective
numbers of shares of Firm Securities set forth opposite the names of the
Underwriters in Schedule A hereto.
The Company will deliver the Firm Securities to the Representatives for the
accounts of the Underwriters, at the office of CSFBC, Eleven Madison Avenue, New
York, New York, against payment of the purchase price in Federal (same day)
funds by official bank check or checks or wire transfer to an account at a bank

Coie LLP, 0000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx, 00xx Xxxxx, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx, at 10:00 A.M., New
York time, on _______________, 1999 or at such other time not later than seven
full business days thereafter as CSFBC and the Company determine, such time
being herein referred to as the "First Closing Date." For purposes of Rule 15c6-
1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the First Closing Date (if later

agrees to sell to the Underwriters the number of shares of Optional Securities
specified in such notice and the Underwriters agree, severally and not jointly,
to purchase such Optional Securities. Such Optional Securities shall be
purchased for the account of each Underwriter in the same proportion as the
number of shares of Firm Securities set forth opposite such Underwriter's name
bears to the total number of shares of Firm Securities (subject to adjustment by
CSFBC to eliminate fractions) and may be purchased by the Underwriters only for
the purpose of covering over-allotments made in connection with the sale of the
Firm Securities. No Optional Securities shall be sold or delivered unless the
Firm Securities previously have been, or simultaneously are, sold and delivered.
The right to purchase the Optional Securities or any portion thereof may be
exercised from time to time and to the extent not previously exercised may be
surrendered and terminated at any time upon notice by CSFBC to the Company.
Each time for the delivery of and payment for the Optional Securities,

Closing Date (the First Closing Date and each Optional Closing Date, if any,
being sometimes referred to as a "Closing Date"), shall be determined by CSFBC

election to purchase Optional Securities is given. The Company will deliver the
Optional Securities being purchased on each Optional Closing Date to the
Representatives for the accounts of the several Underwriters, at the above
office of CSFBC in New York, against payment of the purchase price therefor in
Federal (same day) funds by official bank check or checks or wire transfer to an
account at a bank acceptable to CSFBC drawn to the order of the Company at the
above office of Xxxxxxx Coie LLP in Seattle, Washington. The certificates for
the Optional Securities being purchased on each Optional Closing Date will be in
definitive form, in such denominations and registered in such names as CSFBC
requests upon reasonable notice prior to such Optional Closing Date and will be
made available for checking and packaging at the above office of CSFBC in New
York at a reasonable time in advance of such Optional Closing Date.
4. Offering by Underwriters. It is understood that the several
Underwriters propose to offer the Offered Securities for sale to the public as
set forth in the Prospectus.
5. Certain Agreements of the Company. The Company agrees with the several
Underwriters that:
(a) If the Effective Time of the Initial Registration Statement is
prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Company will
file the Prospectus with the Commission pursuant to and in accordance with
subparagraph (1) (or, if applicable and if consented to by CSFBC,
subparagraph (4)) of Rule 424(b) not later than the earlier of (A) the
second business day following the execution and delivery of this Agreement
or (B) the fifteenth business day after the Effective Date of the Initial
Registration Statement.
The Company will advise CSFBC promptly of any such filing pursuant to
Rule 424(b). If the Effective Time of the Initial Registration Statement
is prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement and an additional
registration statement is necessary to register a portion of the Offered
Securities under the Act but the Effective Time thereof has not occurred as
of such execution and delivery, the Company will file the additional
registration statement or, if filed, will file a post-effective amendment
thereto with the Commission pursuant to and in accordance with Rule 462(b)
on or prior to 10:00 P.M., New York time, on the date of this Agreement or,
if earlier, on or prior to the time the Prospectus is printed and
distributed to any Underwriter, or will make such filing at such later date
as shall have been consented to by CSFBC.
(b) The Company will advise CSFBC promptly of any proposal to amend or
supplement the initial or any additional registration statement as filed or
the related prospectus or the Initial Registration Statement, the
Additional Registration Statement (if any) or the Prospectus and will not
effect such amendment or supplementation without CSFBC's consent, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; and the Company will also
advise CSFBC promptly of the effectiveness of each Registration Statement
(if its Effective Time is subsequent to the execution and
-6-
delivery of this Agreement) and of any amendment or supplementation of a
Registration Statement or the Prospectus and of the institution by the
Commission of any stop order proceedings in respect of a Registration
Statement and will use its best efforts to prevent the issuance of any such
stop order and to obtain as soon as possible its lifting, if issued.
(c) If, at any time when a prospectus relating to the Offered
Securities is required to be delivered under the Act in connection with
sales by any Underwriter or dealer, any event occurs as a result of which
the Prospectus as then amended or supplemented would include an untrue
statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary
to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under
which they were made, not misleading, or if it is necessary at any time to
amend the Prospectus to comply with the Act, the Company will promptly
notify CSFBC of such event and will promptly prepare and file with the
Commission, at its own expense, an amendment or supplement which will
correct such statement or omission or an amendment which will effect such
compliance. Neither CSFBC's consent to, nor the Underwriters' delivery of,
any such amendment or supplement shall constitute a waiver of any of the
conditions set forth in Section 6.
(d) As soon as practicable, but not later than the Availability Date
(as defined below), the Company will make generally available to its
securityholders an earnings statement covering a period of at least 12
months beginning after the Effective Date of the Initial Registration
Statement (or, if later, the Effective Date of the Additional Registration
Statement) which will satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Act.
For the purpose of the preceding sentence, "Availability Date" means the
45th day after the end of the fourth fiscal quarter following the fiscal
quarter that includes such Effective Date, except that, if such fourth
fiscal quarter is the last quarter of the Company's fiscal year,
"Availability Date" means the 90th day after the end of such fourth fiscal
quarter.
(e) The Company will furnish to the Representatives copies of each
Registration Statement (four of which will be signed and will include all
exhibits), each related preliminary prospectus, and, so long as a
prospectus relating to the Offered Securities is required to be delivered
under the Act in connection with sales by any Underwriter or dealer, the
Prospectus and all amendments and supplements to such documents, in each
case in such quantities as CSFBC reasonably requests. The Prospectus shall
be so furnished on or prior to 3:00 P.M., New York time, on the business
day following the later of the execution and delivery of this Agreement or
the Effective Time of the Initial Registration Statement. All other
documents shall be so furnished as soon as available. The Company will pay
the expenses of printing and distributing to the Underwriters all such
documents.
(f) The Company will arrange for the qualification of the Offered
Securities for sale under the laws of such U.S. jurisdictions as CSFBC
designates and such foreign jurisdictions as the Company and CSFBC shall
agree in advance, will continue such qualifications in effect so long as
required for the distribution; provided, however, that the Company shall
not be obligated to file any general consent to service of process or to
qualify as a foreign corporation or as a securities dealer in any
jurisdiction or to subject itself to taxation in respect of doing business
in any jurisdiction in which it is not otherwise so subject.
(g) During the period of five (5) years hereafter, the Company will
furnish to the Representatives and, upon request, to each of the other
Underwriters, as soon as practicable after the end of each fiscal year, a
copy of its annual report to stockholders for such year; and the Company
will furnish to the Representatives (i) as soon as available, a copy of
each report and any definitive proxy statement of the Company filed with
the Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or mailed to
stockholders, and (ii) from time to time, such other publicly available
information concerning the Company as CSFBC may reasonably request.
(h) The Company will pay all expenses incident to the performance of
its obligations under this Agreement, for any filing fees and other
expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel) incurred in
connection with qualification of the Offered Securities for sale under the
laws of such jurisdictions as CSFBC designates and the printing of
memoranda relating thereto, for the filing fee incident to, and the
reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Underwriters in
connection with, the review by the National Association of Securities
Dealers, Inc. of the Offered Securities, for any travel expenses of the
Company's officers and employees and any other expenses of the
-7-
Company in connection with attending or hosting meetings with prospective
purchasers of the Offered Securities and for expenses incurred in
distributing preliminary prospectuses and the Prospectus (including any
amendments and supplements thereto) to the Underwriters.
(i) For a period of 180 days after the date of the initial public
offering of the Offered Securities, the Company will not offer, sell,
contract to sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly,
or file with the Commission a registration statement under the Act relating
to, any additional shares of its Securities or securities convertible into
or exchangeable or exercisable for any shares of its Securities, or
publicly disclose the intention to make any such offer, sale, pledge,
disposition or filing, without the prior written consent of CSFBC, except
(1) issuances of Securities pursuant to the conversion of convertible
securities and the exercise of options, in each case, outstanding on the
date hereof, (2) grants of employee stock options pursuant to the terms of
a plan in effect on the date hereof and issuances of Securities pursuant to
the exercise of such options, (3) issuances of Securities pursuant to the
terms of the Company's 1998 Employee Stock Purchase Plan ("ESPP") in effect
on the date hereof, or (4) if CSFBC is provided with at least three (3)
days prior written notice, issuance of Securities in connection with
strategic acquisitions or alliances or other business relationships
approved by the Company's Board of Directors.
(j) The Company agrees to use its best efforts to cause all
directors, officers, and shareholders to agree that, without the prior
written consent of CSFBC on behalf of the Underwriters, such person or
entity will not, for a period of 180 days following the commencement of the
public offering of the Offered Securities by the Underwriters, directly or
indirectly, sale, make any short sale of, grant any option for the purchase
of, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, any of such Securities, or any
such securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for
Securities.
(k) The Company agrees to use its best efforts to cause each person
who acquires Securities of the Company pursuant to the exercise of any
option granted under the Company's Amended and Restated 1994 Combined
Incentive and Nonqualified Stock Plan, the 1998 Stock Incentive
Compensation Plan or the ESPP to sign an agreement that restricts such
person from selling, making any short sale of, granting any option for the
purchase of, or otherwise transferring or disposing of, any of such
Securities, or any such securities convertible into or exercisable or
exchangeable for Securities, for a period of 180 days after the date of the
Prospectus without the prior written consent of CSFBC; and the Company will
issue and impose a stop-transfer instruction with the Company's transfer
agent in order to enforce the foregoing lock-up agreements.
(l) The Company will (i) enforce the terms of each Lock-up Agreement,
and (ii) issue stop-transfer instructions to the transfer agent for the
Securities with respect to any transaction or contemplated transaction that
would constitute a breach of or default under the applicable Lock-up
Agreement. In addition, except with the prior written consent of CSFBC,
the Company agrees (i) not to amend or terminate, or waive any right under,
any Lock-up Agreement, or take any other action that would directly or
indirectly have the same effect as an amendment or termination, or waiver
of any right under any Lock-up Agreement, that would permit any holder of
Securities, or any securities convertible into, or exercisable or
exchangeable for, Securities, to make any short sale of, grant any option
for the purchase of, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, any such
Securities or other securities, prior to the expiration of the 180 days
after the date of the Prospectus and (ii) not to consent to any sale, short
sale, grant of an option for the purchase of, or other disposition or
transfer of shares of Securities, or securities convertible into or
exercisable or exchangeable for Securities, subject to a Lock-up Agreement.

the several Underwriters to purchase and pay for the Firm Securities on the
First Closing Date and the Optional Securities to be purchased on each Optional
Closing Date will be subject to the accuracy of the representations and
warranties on the part of the Company herein, to the accuracy of the statements
of Company officers made pursuant to the provisions hereof, to the performance
by the Company of its obligations hereunder and to the following additional
conditions precedent:
(a) The Representatives shall have received a letter, dated the date
of delivery thereof (which, if the Effective Time of the Initial
Registration Statement is prior to the execution and delivery of this
Agreement, shall be
-8-
on or prior to the date of this Agreement (but in no event earlier than the
Effective Time) or, if the Effective Time of the Initial Registration
Statement is subsequent to the execution and delivery of this Agreement,
shall be prior to the filing of the amendment or post-effective amendment
to the registration statement to be filed shortly prior to such Effective
Time), of Ernst & Young LLP confirming that they are independent public
accountants within the meaning of the Act and the related Rules and
Regulations adopted thereunder by the Commission and stating to the effect
that:
(i) in their opinion the financial statements and financial
statement schedules examined by them and included in the Registration
Statements comply as to form in all material respects with the
applicable accounting requirements of the Act and the related Rules
and Regulations adopted thereunder by the Commission;
(ii) they have performed the procedures specified by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants for a review of
interim financial information as described in Statement of Auditing
Standards No. 71, Interim Financial Information, on the unaudited
financial statements included in the Registration Statements;
(iii) on the basis of the review referred to in clause (ii)
above, a reading of the latest available interim financial statements
of the Company, inquiries of officials of the Company who have
responsibility for financial and accounting matters and other
specified procedures, nothing came to their attention that caused them
to believe that:
(A) the unaudited financial statements included in the
Registration Statements do not comply as to form in all material
respects with the applicable accounting requirements of the Act
and the related adopted Rules and Regulations or any material
modifications should be made to such unaudited financial
statements for them to be in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles;
(B) the unaudited total revenues, loss from operations, net
loss, pro forma basic and diluted net loss per share amounts for
the three (3) month periods ended December 31, 1998 included in
the Prospectus do not agree with the amounts set forth in the
unaudited consolidated financial statements for those same
periods or were not determined on a basis substantially
consistent with that of the corresponding amounts in the audited
statement of operations;
(C) at the date of the latest available balance sheet read
by such accountants, or at a subsequent specified date not more
than three business days prior to the date of this Agreement,
there was any change in the capital stock (except pursuant to
option exercises or other issues described in the Prospectus) or
any increase in short-term indebtedness or long-term obligations
of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries or, at the date
of the latest available balance sheet read by such accountants,
there was any decrease in consolidated total current assets or
total assets, or any increase in shareholders' deficit as
compared with amounts shown on the latest balance sheet included
in the Prospectus; or
(D) for the period from the closing date of the latest
statement of operations included in the Prospectus to the closing
date of the latest available statement of operations read by such
accountants there were any decreases, as compared with the
corresponding period of the previous year and with the period of
corresponding length ended the date of the latest statement of
operations included in the Prospectus, in revenues, income from
operations or increase in net loss or per share amounts of net
loss.
except in all cases set forth in clauses (C) and (D) above for
changes, increases or decreases which the Prospectus discloses have
occurred or may occur or which are described in such letter; and
-9-
(iv) they have compared specified dollar amounts (or percentages
derived from such dollar amounts) and other financial information
contained in the Registration Statements (in each case to the extent
that such dollar amounts, percentages and other financial and
statistical information are derived from the general accounting
records of the Company and its subsidiaries subject to the internal
controls of the Company's accounting system or are derived directly
from such records by analysis or computation) with the results
obtained from inquiries, a reading of such general accounting records
and other procedures specified in such letter and have found such
dollar amounts, percentages and other financial and statistical
information to be in agreement with such results, except as otherwise
specified in such letter.
For purposes of this subsection, (i) if the Effective Time of the
Initial Registration Statement is subsequent to the execution and
delivery of this Agreement, "Registration Statements" shall mean the
initial registration statement as proposed to be amended by the
amendment or post-effective amendment to be filed shortly prior to its
Effective Time, (ii) if the Effective Time of the Initial Registration
Statement is prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement but
the Effective Time of the Additional Registration is subsequent to
such execution and delivery, "Registration Statements" shall mean the
Initial Registration Statement and the additional registration
statement as proposed to be filed or as proposed to be amended by the
post-effective amendment to be filed shortly prior to its Effective
Time, and (iii) "Prospectus" shall mean the prospectus included in the
Registration Statements.
(b) If the Effective Time of the Initial Registration Statement is
not prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement, such Effective
Time shall have occurred not later than 10:00 P.M., New York time, on the
date of this Agreement or such later date as shall have been consented to
in writing by CSFBC. If the Effective Time of the Additional Registration
Statement (if any) is not prior to the execution and delivery of this
Agreement, such Effective Time shall have occurred not later than 10:00
P.M., New York time, on the date of this Agreement or, if earlier, the time
the Prospectus is printed and distributed to any Underwriter, or shall have
occurred at such later date as shall have been consented to by CSFBC. If
the Effective Time of the Initial Registration Statement is prior to the
execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Prospectus shall have been
filed with the Commission in accordance with the Rules and Regulations and
Section 5(a) of this Agreement. Prior to such Closing Date, no stop order
suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement shall have been
issued and no proceedings for that purpose shall have been instituted or,
to the knowledge of the Company or the Representatives, shall be
contemplated by the Commission.
(c) Subsequent to the execution and delivery of this Agreement, there
shall not have occurred (i) any change, or any development or event
involving a prospective change, in the condition (financial or other),
business, properties or results of operations of the Company or its
subsidiaries which, in the judgment of a majority in interest of the
Underwriters including the Representatives, is material and adverse and
makes it impractical or inadvisable to proceed with completion of the
public offering or the sale of and payment for the Offered Securities; (ii)
any downgrading in the rating of any debt securities of the Company by any
"nationally recognized statistical rating organization" (as defined for
purposes of Rule 436(g) under the Act), or any public announcement that any
such organization has under surveillance or review its rating of any debt
securities of the Company (other than an announcement with positive
implications of a possible upgrading, and no implication of a possible
downgrading, of such rating); (iii) any suspension or limitation of trading
in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange, or any setting of
minimum prices for trading on such exchange, or any suspension of trading
of any securities of the Company on any exchange or in the over-the-counter
market; (iv) any banking moratorium declared by U.S. Federal or New York
authorities; or (v) any outbreak or escalation of major hostilities in
which the United States is involved, any declaration of war by Congress or
any other substantial national or international calamity or emergency if,
in the judgment of a majority in interest of the Underwriters including the
Representatives, the effect of any such outbreak, escalation, declaration,
calamity or emergency makes it impractical or inadvisable to proceed with
completion of the public offering or the sale of and payment for the
Offered Securities.
-10-
(d) The Representatives shall have received an opinion, dated such
Closing Date, of Xxxxxxx Coie LLP, counsel for the Company, in the form
attached hereto as Appendix A.
(e) The Representatives shall have received from Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx
Xxxxxxxx & Xxxxxx, counsel for the Underwriters, such opinion or opinions,

the validity of the Offered Securities delivered on such Closing Date, the
Registration Statements, the Prospectus and other related matters as the
Representatives may require, and the Company shall have furnished to such
counsel such documents as they request for the purpose of enabling them to
pass upon such matters. In rendering such opinion, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx
& Xxxxxx may rely as to the incorporation of the Company and all other
matters governed by Washington law upon the opinion of Xxxxxxx Coie LLP
referred to in subsection (d) above.
(f) The Representatives shall have received a certificate, dated such
Closing Date, of the President or any Vice President and a principal
financial or accounting officer of the Company in which such officers, to
the best of their knowledge after reasonable investigation, shall state
that: the representations and warranties of the Company in this Agreement
are true and correct; the Company has complied with all agreements and
satisfied all conditions on its part to be performed or satisfied hereunder
at or prior to such Closing Date; no stop order suspending the
effectiveness of any Registration Statement has been issued and no
proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or are contemplated by
the Commission; the Additional Registration Statement (if any) satisfying
the requirements of subparagraphs (1) and (3) of Rule 462(b) was filed
pursuant to Rule 462(b), including payment of the applicable filing fee in
accordance with Rule 111(a) or (b) under the Act, prior to the time the
Prospectus was printed and distributed to any Underwriter; and, subsequent
to the date of the most recent financial statements in the Prospectus,
there has been no material adverse change, nor any development or event
involving a prospective material adverse change, in the condition
(financial or other), business, properties or results of operations of the
Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole except as set forth in or
contemplated by the Prospectus or as described in such certificate.
(g) The Representatives shall have received a letter, dated such
Closing Date, of Ernst & Young LLP which meets the requirements of
subsection (a) of this Section, except that the specified date referred to
in such subsection will be a date not more than three days prior to such
Closing Date for the purposes of this subsection.
The Company will furnish the Representatives with such conformed copies of such
opinions, certificates, letters and documents as the Representatives reasonably
request. CSFBC may in its sole discretion waive on behalf of the Underwriters
compliance with any conditions to the obligations of the Underwriters hereunder,
whether in respect of an Optional Closing Date or otherwise.
7. Indemnification and Contribution.
(a) The Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter,
its partners, directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls
such Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act, against any
losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which such
Underwriter may become subject, under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such
losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof)
arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement of any material fact contained in any Registration Statement, the
Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any related
preliminary prospectus, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or
alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and
will reimburse each Underwriter for any legal or other expenses reasonably
incurred by such Underwriter in connection with investigating or defending
any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are
incurred; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any
such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability
arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement in or omission or alleged omission from any of such documents in
reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the
Company by any Underwriter through the Representatives specifically for use
therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information
furnished by any Underwriter consists of the information described as such
in subsection (b) below.
-11-
(b) Each Underwriter will severally and not jointly indemnify and
hold harmless the Company, its directors and officers and each person, if
any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act,
against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Company may
become subject, under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims,
damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are
based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material
fact contained in any Registration Statement, the Prospectus, or any
amendment or supplement thereto, or any related preliminary prospectus, or
arise out of or are based upon the omission or the alleged omission to
state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
make the statements therein not misleading, in each case to the extent, but
only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement
or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity
with written information furnished to the Company by such Underwriter
through the Representatives specifically for use therein, and will
reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company in
connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage,
liability or action as such expenses are incurred, it being understood and
agreed that the only such information furnished by any Underwriter consists
of the following information in the Prospectus furnished on behalf of each
Underwriter: (i) the concession and reallowance figures appearing in the
fourth paragraph under the caption "Underwriting" and (ii) the information
contained in the sixth and twelfth paragraphs under the caption
"Underwriting."
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section
of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will,
if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party
under subsection (a) or (b) above, notify the indemnifying party of the
commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party
will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified
party otherwise than under subsection (a) or (b) above. In case any such
action is brought against any indemnified party and it notifies the
indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will
be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish,
jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the
defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party (who
shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to
the indemnifying party), and after notice from the indemnifying party to
such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof,
the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under
this Section for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such
indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than
reasonable costs of investigation. No indemnifying party shall, without
the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement
of any pending or threatened action in respect of which any indemnified
party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought
hereunder by such indemnified party unless such settlement includes an
unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on any
claims that are the subject matter of such action.
(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section is
unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under
subsection (a) or (b) above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute
to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of the
losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in subsection (a) or (b)
above (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative
benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on
the other from the offering of the Securities or (ii) if the allocation
provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such
proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits
referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company
on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other in connection with the
statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or
liabilities as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The
relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the
Underwriters on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as
the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses)
received by the Company bear to the total underwriting discounts and
commissions received by the Underwriters. The relative fault shall be
determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or
alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged
omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the
Company or the Underwriters and the parties' relative intent, knowledge,
access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue
statement or omission. The amount paid by an indemnified party as a result
of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in the first
sentence of this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal or
other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection
-12-
with investigating or defending any action or claim which is the subject of
this subsection (d). Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (d),
no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the
amount by which the total price at which the Securities underwritten by it
and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount
of any damages which such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by
reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged
omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the
meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from
any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The
Underwriters' obligations in this subsection (d) to contribute are several
in proportion to their respective underwriting obligations and not joint.
(e) The obligations of the Company under this Section shall be in
addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have and shall
extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each person, if any, who
controls any Underwriter within the meaning of the Act; and the obligations
of the Underwriters under this Section shall be in addition to any
liability which the respective Underwriters may otherwise have and shall
extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each director of the
Company, to each officer of the Company who has signed a Registration
Statement and to each person, if any, who controls the Company within the
meaning of the Act.
8. Default of Underwriters. If any Underwriter or Underwriters default
in their obligations to purchase Offered Securities hereunder on either the
First or any Optional Closing Date and the aggregate number of shares of Offered
Securities that such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to
purchase does not exceed 10% of the total number of shares of Offered Securities
that the Underwriters are obligated to purchase on such Closing Date, CSFBC may
make arrangements satisfactory to the Company for the purchase of such Offered
Securities by other persons, including any of the Underwriters, but if no such
arrangements are made by such Closing Date, the non-defaulting Underwriters
shall be obligated severally, in proportion to their respective commitments
hereunder, to purchase the Offered Securities that such defaulting Underwriters
agreed but failed to purchase on such Closing Date. If any Underwriter or
Underwriters so default and the aggregate number of shares of Offered Securities
with respect to which such default or defaults occur exceeds 10% of the total
number of shares of Offered Securities that the Underwriters are obligated to
purchase on such Closing Date and arrangements satisfactory to CSFBC and the
Company for the purchase of such Offered Securities by other persons are not
made within 36 hours after such default, this Agreement will terminate without
liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter or the Company, except
as provided in Section 9 (provided that if such default occurs with respect to
Optional Securities after the First Closing Date, this Agreement will not
terminate as to the Firm Securities or any Optional Securities purchased prior
to such termination). As used in this Agreement, the term "Underwriter" includes
any person substituted for an Underwriter under this Section. Nothing herein
will relieve a defaulting Underwriter from liability for its default.
9. Survival of Certain Representations and Obligations. The respective
indemnities, agreements, representations, warranties and other statements of the
Company or its officers and of the several Underwriters set forth in or made
pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of
any investigation, or statement as to the results thereof, made by or on behalf
of any Underwriter, the Company or any of their respective representatives,
officers or directors or any controlling person, and will survive delivery of
and payment for the Offered Securities. If this Agreement is terminated
pursuant to Section 8 or if for any reason the purchase of the Offered
Securities by the Underwriters is not consummated, the Company shall remain
responsible for the expenses to be paid or reimbursed by it pursuant to Section
5 and the respective obligations of the Company and the Underwriters pursuant to
Section 7 shall remain in effect, and if any Offered Securities have been
purchased hereunder the representations and warranties in Section 2 and all
obligations under Section 5 shall also remain in effect. If the purchase of the
Offered Securities by the Underwriters is not consummated for any reason other
than solely because of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8
or the occurrence of any event specified in clause (iii), (iv) or (v) of Section
6(c), the Company will reimburse the Underwriters for all out-of-pocket expenses
(including fees and disbursements of counsel) reasonably incurred by them in
connection with the offering of the Offered Securities.
10. Notices. All communications hereunder will be in writing and, if
sent to the Underwriters, will be mailed, delivered or telegraphed and confirmed
to the Representatives, c/o Credit Suisse First Boston Corporation, Eleven
Madison Avenue, New York, N.Y. 10010-3629, Attention: Investment Banking

-13-
98005, Attention: Chief Financial Officer; provided, however, that any notice to
an Underwriter pursuant to Section 7 will be mailed, delivered or telegraphed
and confirmed to such Underwriter.
11. Successors. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be
binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and the officers
and directors and controlling persons referred to in Section 7, and no other
person will have any right or obligation hereunder.
12. Representation of Underwriters. The Representatives will act for the
several Underwriters in connection with this financing, and any action under
this Agreement taken by the Representatives jointly or by CSFBC will be binding
upon all the Underwriters.
13. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all such
counterparts shall together constitute one and the same Agreement.
14. APPLICABLE LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES
OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS.
The Company hereby submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the Federal
and state courts in the Borough of Manhattan in The City of New York in any suit
or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions
contemplated hereby.
