INTRODUCTORY STATEMENT
This registration statement on Form S-8 registers 3,000,000 shares of common stock (“Common Shares”) of Expeditors International of Washington, Inc. (the “Registrant”) reserved for issuance pursuant to the Registrant’s 2016 Stock Option Plan.
Pursuant to Rule 416(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act of 1933”), this registration statement also covers any additional securities that may be offered or issued to prevent dilution resulting from stock splits, stock dividends or similar transactions.
PART I. INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE SECTION 10(A) PROSPECTUS
As permitted by the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), this Registration Statement omits the information specified in Part I of Form S-8. The documents containing the information specified in Part I will be delivered to the participants in the plan as required by Rule 428(b)(1) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Such documents are not being filed with the SEC as part of this Registration Statement or as a prospectus or prospectus supplement pursuant to Rule 424. These documents and the documents incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement pursuant to Item 3 of Part II hereof, taken together, constitute a prospectus that meets the requirements of Section 10(a) of the Securities Act.
PART II. INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT
Item 3. Incorporation of Documents by Reference.
The following documents, which have been filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), are incorporated herein by reference:
|
|
(a)
|
The Registrant’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015, filed with the Commission on February 25, 2016 pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act of 1934”).
|
|
|
(b)
|
All other reports filed pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act of 1934 since the end of the fiscal year covered by the Registrant’s annual report incorporated by reference herein pursuant to (a) above.
|
|
|
(c)
|
The description of the Registrant’s common shares contained in the Registrant’s registration statement on Form 8-A filed with the Commission on April 28, 1985 under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act of 1934, including any amendment or report filed for the purpose of updating such description.
|
All documents subsequently filed by the Registrant pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act of 1934, prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment which indicates that all securities offered have been sold or which deregisters all securities then remaining unsold, shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference in this registration statement and to be a part hereof from the date of filing of such documents. Any statement in any incorporated document contradicting the previous sentence will not be deemed to constitute a part of this registration statement.
Item 4. Description of Securities.
Not Applicable.
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
Benjamin G. Clark, Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary of the Registrant, has rendered his opinion regarding the legality of the Common Shares. Mr. Clark owns no Common Shares, and he participates in the 2016 Stock Option Plan, but does not hold a substantial interest in the Registrant.
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Sections 23B.08.510 and 23B.08.570 of the Washington Business Corporation Act (the “Washington Act”) authorize Washington corporations to indemnify directors and officers under certain circumstances against expenses and liabilities incurred in legal proceedings in which they are involved by reason of being a director or officer, as applicable. Section 23B.08.320 of the Washington Act provides that a corporation's articles of incorporation may contain provisions not inconsistent with law that eliminate or limit a director's personal liability to the corporation or its shareholders for monetary damages for conduct as a director, except in certain circumstances
involving intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, unlawful 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 XII of the Registrant's Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, and Article IX of the Registrant's Amended and Restated Bylaws provide for indemnification of the Registrant's directors, officers, employees and agents to the maximum extent permitted by Washington law. The directors and officers of the Registrant also may be indemnified against liability they may incur for serving in that capacity pursuant to a liability insurance policy maintained by the Registrant for such purpose.
The Registrant has entered into indemnification agreements with its directors and certain officers.
Item 7. Exemption from Registration Claimed.
Not Applicable.

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 of 1933;
|
|
|
(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) above do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the 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 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 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 Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
