OUR DEDICATION TO QUALITY
The first steps: set high standards, then keep them. Finding the right donor and acquiring a quality donor
sperm sample are the two most important parts in this journey as they are both keys in your successful insemination. Our top
priority is to provide the donor sperm that is most ideal for you. e stand behind our products with pride and confidence.
To ensure that our clients and the chosen fertility clinic have the best possible donor sperm, we guarantee that every IUI vial
contains at least 10 Million motile cells in a 0.5 ml volume and that every ICI vial contains at least 15 Million motile cells in a 1.0
ml volume. Both measurements have been proven as favorable numbers of sperm used to attain pregnancy.
ICI vials often have more motile cells per vial since clinics will often wash the sample themselves. The extra motile cells provide a
margin for clinics since a portion of the cells are lost during processing.

OUR APPROACH
People matter. Each one of us is important.
The approach that built Seattle Sperm Bank into a reliable,
go-to resource for our clients is to always put the individual first, whether it is our staff, our donors or our clients. The fertility
clinics we work with share this view.
As professionals, it is especially important to be there for you, providing support, guidance and advice. We approach each
client’s journey as an opportunity to create positive impact in your and your family’s life. Having had the opportunity to
serve thousands of clients over the years, we have come to believe that a simple, straightforward process often results in a
successful choice for our clients.
1
PERSONAL
CONSULTATION
Once you and your family
have consulted your physician
and made the decision to
move forward with finding
a donor, we are here to
support and guide you. We
value the opportunity to start
with a personal consultation. It
helps you get to know us, and
it allows us to get to know you
and learn about what the best
donor might look like for you.
(This step is voluntary and not
required.)

IDENTIFY &
CHOOSE THE
RIGHT DONOR
3
The biggest responsibility for us,
along with providing the highest
quality product, is to help guide
you through the process of
choosing a donor.
We work closely with you
to consult you on detailspecific search functions and
on identifying what donor
characteristics are the most
important to you. This will help
you narrow your options and feel
good and confident about your
choice.
PLACE YOUR
ORDER
Once a donor is chosen,
we will guide you through
the process of placing an
order, including vial type,
quantities, shipping and
storage options along with
the necessary paperwork.
An order can be placed
in person, over the phone
or on our website at
seattlespermbank.com.

CLIENT
FOLLOW-UP
At the end of your journey, the
goal is to bring a new life to the
world and nothing makes our
jobs more rewarding than seeing
the ‘results’ of our efforts.
We recommend a follow-up
meeting to discuss and record
your pregnancy/birth. It is not just
a great reward for us, but it also
helps other families by allowing
us to compile the most up-to-date
and accurate records.
There isn’t much data collected on
births from sperm donors, which
makes the sperm bank the most
logical party to gather and track
this information. Please assist us
in our efforts to keep a definitive
record of pregnancies and births.
Any information you provide is
kept strictly confidential.
FINDING THE BEST DONOR
Above all, you and your donor need to match. Finding the right donor can take time. No one should ever feel
rushed or that they are missing details. We offer extensive information on each of our donors. We strongly suggest a thorough review
of a donor’s Extended Profile before making your final decision.
We have made it easy to get a comprehensive view of each available donor. SSB offers a $50 All-Access Donor Subscription
that includes unlimited online access to detailed information for each donor.
• Free Photo Matching
• Extended Donor Profile
• Childhood Photo
• Audio Interview
• Staff Impressions
• Keirsey Temperament Sorter Result
• Hand-Written Donor Note
• Medical History
To view our available donors, begin by entering a couple
of your preferred donor characteristics such as ethnicity,
eye color, height, blood group, etc. If you have any questions,
do not hesitate to call or email us at any time.
Through the entire process, working with you all has
been smooth, delightful and educational.Choosing from the
list of donors was the most difficult part (as I am sure is the case for most)! The information
offered throughout the membership is extensive and most appreciated. The prices are
competitive and reasonable. The customer service is outstanding! We appreciated the staff's
prompt responses via email, their knowledge of the product, policies and procedures of the
market. I do not recommend any other facility to others and will continue to do so!
We are more excited than words can describe and are
so thankful for the time and efforts the staff puts forth
daily to help create families. Thank you!

OPEN ID DONORS, A CHOICE FOR ALL FUTURES
WHAT IS AN OPEN ID DONOR?
This term means that a donor has agreed to at least one form of contact
with any donation-born offspring once the child turns 18. In America, this is the
fastest growing trend among sperm ban s due to the transparency and comfort it provides. Seattle Sperm an was the first in the
U.S. to specialize in providing this option to donor-conceived children. We feel that it’s an important option for our clients and their
families, and our catalog consists mostly of donors listed as such.
WHY WE FOCUS ON OPEN ID DONORS.
Why is it important to us? As children conceived from anonymous donors grow into adulthood, many lament the fact that policies
of anonymity cut them off from half of their genetic inheritance. They may hunger to know more about their donor’s story from
family traits, to life histories, even whether he or she was musically inclined. Such a sense of belonging is taken for granted by most
of us, but for these kids it can be sorely missed. Open identity sperm donation is intended to address this basic human desire, and
that is why Seattle Sperm Bank specializes in Open ID donors.
WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR YOUR CHILD?
When a donor child reaches 18 years old, he or she may request to initiate contact with the donor through our bank. We will make
the connection and arrange a mutually agreed-upon method of contact. It could be a meeting, a phone call or simply an exchange
of information. It will be a communication between two adults who will be able to decide how they best want to move forward. The
child must initiate the contact, as patient and child identities are confidential and are never released to the sperm donors.
WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR YOUR DONOR?
All donors are required to go through a maturity evaluation by the sperm bank’s managing director and donor coordinator. This is
to ensure they understand the parameters and responsibilities associated with their decision of becoming an Open Identity Donor.
Once the paperwork is submitted to Seattle Sperm Bank, an Open ID donor cannot switch to become an anonymous donor.
Sperm donors have no legal rights, responsibilities or obligations to any children born through the use of their semen. There is
no requirement that the donor commit to a long-term relationship with the child, although he and the child may arrange to have
further communication.
WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO YOU?
hile prospective parents don t get to meet their selected sperm donor, there is a lot to learn about donors through profile
information. At Seattle Sperm Bank, we have found that the Open Identity Donors are usually willing to provide more detailed
content such as baby photos and extended essays to us.
any potential parents find security in nowing their child will be able to have some contact with their donor. owever, even as an
Open Identity Donor, there is no guarantee that the donor will have the same wishes as the parent and child beyond an initial contact.
For more information/questions, please let us know and we will guide you through the process that our Open ID Donors experience.

DONOR QUALIFICATION
We built our reputation on donor qualification. In addition to our Open ID donor policy, we use industry-leading
donor screening and extensive testing procedures to evaluate each donor to ensure that the donor sperm that we offer clients
and fertility clinics is of the highest possible quality. We adhere strictly to FDA regulations of sperm banks as well as several
international health authorities’ screening guidelines.

WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT CMV
CYTOMEGALOVIRUS, or CMV,, is a member of the herpes virus family which includes cold sores, chicken pox and
infectious mononucleosis. It is a common virus known to infect people from all populations and ages. In developed countries,
50%-85% of adults have been infected by age 40. Once a person becomes infected and passes the initial illness, the virus lies
dormant in their body for the rest of their life with little risk of recurrent infection or reactivation. Unfortunately, there is no vaccine
for CMV.
n healthy adults and children, symptoms of an active
infection are usually mild and could be mista en for a cold or the u.
The affected person should fully recover in a week or two with no lasting effects. During an active infection, the virus is shed in
body uids, which means it can be contracted through exposure to urine, saliva, blood, tears, breast mil and semen.
Couples in which one partner contracts the virus will typically pass it on to the other through kissing and intimate contact which
results in both partners sharing the same CMV status and mutual, natural immunity. However, it is impossible to be certain of your
CMV status without obtaining a blood test.
WHY IS THIS IMPORTANT REGARDING PREGNANCY AND DONOR SPERM CHOICE?
f a woman has never encountered
and has her first exposure during pregnancy, there is a
chance of her fetus
being infected as well. The majority of children who experienced a CMV infection before birth are healthy and normal, however,
10%-15% may have complications such as hearing loss, neurological abnormalities or decreased motor skills. Note that infants
who are infected with CMV after birth rarely experience any long-term complications.
To reduce the risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes, any woman planning to use donor sperm to conceive should have her CMV
status tested.
WHAT TYPE OF CMV TESTING DO SPERM DONORS
GO THROUGH?
Donors are given an initial CMV screening to determine their CMV
status. All donors with an active infection are barred from donating
until the donor tests IgM negative. Any potentially affected vials are
discarded. Donors are tested every 3-6 months for their CMV status.
For more in-depth information on CMV, please consult your
physician and refer to the CDC (http://www.cdc.gov/cmv/index.
html) for more information.

THE DIFFERENT METHODS OF INSEMINATION
There are several options when it comes to insemination. It is best to consult with your healthcare professional about which
method is most appropriate for your circumstances. Your medical provider can provide guidance on the type and quantity of vials
recommended for the procedure you will be undergoing.
CLINIC INSEMINATIONS
The procedures used for intrauterine insemination (IUI) and intracervical insemination (ICI) are somewhat similar. Inseminations
must be precisely timed based on a woman’s natural cycle or in conjunction with fertility medications intended to induce ovulation.
The woman is normally positioned on an examination table as if in preparation for a pelvic exam. A speculum is placed in the
vagina so the cervix is visible. A sperm sample is then inserted through the cervical opening using an insemination catheter
attached to a syringe. For an ICI procedure, the sample is injected into the cervix. For an IUI procedure, the sample is injected
directly into the uterus. Of the two procedures, IUI is commonly believed to have a slightly better success rate than ICI.
HOME INSEMINATION
Artificial insemination can be done at home and performed on oneself or by their partner with either vial type. Home inseminations
involve the use of either a syringe or a cervical cap to place the sperm as close to the cervix as possible at the correct time in the
woman’s cycle.
For women who are free of fertility issues, home insemination can save on cost due to the absence of medical office fees, although
a licensed practitioner must agree to sign the required release paperwork. Despite pregnancy rates not being as high with this
method, many women choose to make this a starting point in their fertility journey and do find success.
IN VITRO FERTILIZATION
In vitro fertilization (IVF) is a process by which fertilization is performed outside of the body. IVF may involve any combination of
your own eggs and sperm or those from a donor. After egg and sperm cells have been harvested from the patient or obtained
from a donor source, they are brought together in a laboratory environment under optimal conditions to allow the sperm to
fertilize the eggs.
About 2 to 5 days after fertilization, one or more of the best embryos are inserted into the uterus with a catheter. The remaining
embryos may be cryopreserved for future use. For any ART/IVF procedures, ART-ICI samples can be purchased from SSB, but as
with our premium ICI vials, they must first be “washed” by your fertility professional.
Due to the extensive preparation and delicate nature of an IVF cycle, fertility clinics will frequently require you to provide two
samples – one for immediate use and an extra one for backup.
12
SPECIMEN TYPES
Seattle Sperm Bank offers different vial types for different applications and fertilization techniques.
• IUI: Specimens prepared for Intrauterine Insemination (IUI)
• ICI: Specimens prepared for Intracervical Insemination (ICI)
• ART: Both ICI and IUI preparations, specially designed for use in Assisted Reproductive Technologies such as In Vitro Fertilization (IVF)
INTRAUTERINE INSEMINATION
Semen that has been prepared for Intrauterine Insemination is known as an IUI specimen. These vials are sold in a .5ml volume
and when properly stored and thawed, are guaranteed to contain at least 10 million motile cells. They are also referred to as
“washed” samples because the processing they are put through separates the live sperm from the seminal fluid. That fluid is then
replaced with a cryopreservant before the sample is frozen.
This type of specimen is required for IUI procedures because the dead sperm, white blood cells and prostaglandins found in
unwashed semen not only interfere with the fertilization process, they can cause cramping and pain when inserted directly into
the uterus.
INTRACERVICAL INSEMINATION
Semen that has been prepared for Intracervical Insemination is known as an ICI specimen. These vials are sold in a 1.0ml volume.
When properly stored and thawed, they are guaranteed to contain at least 15 million motile cells. These vials can also be referred
to as “unwashed” because they are not processed. These samples retain all of the naturally occurring seminal fluid and cells.
There will be plenty of motile sperm but dead sperm are also still present.
The cervix and cervical fluid will only allow the highly motile sperm cells to make it into the uterus and fallopian tubes, just
as it happens through intercourse. Due to the nature of raw semen, these samples are suitable for intracervical and at-home
inseminations only, unless they are washed by your fertility specialist.
ART
In addition to our core vial options, Seattle Sperm Bank also offers what are known as ART samples per special request.
Available in both IUI and ICI preparations, these vials are priced at a significant discount because they contain fewer total motile
cells than our guaranteed premium vials. IUI ART vials contain 4-9 million motile sperm in a .5ml volume and ICI ART vials contain
5-14 million motile sperm in a 1.0ml volume.
These numbers are more than sufficient for use in Assisted Reproductive Technology procedures such as IVF, ICSI, GIFT & ZIFT. In
other circumstances, ART vials can be used successfully on their own or combined in multiples for standard insemination techniques.
Please speak with your physician to determine the right product for you. We will then work with you to match the product and
requested donor for a final product sample.
13
DONOR SEARCH
It's time to find the match. Selecting a donor is a big decision and one that our clients may find to be difficult from time
to time. There is no one-size-fits-all donor choice, but instead one that you will make based on what works best for you based on
the criteria that you and your family have prioritized. We are here to work with you in selecting the specifics that are important
to you, and we will guide you through the selection process to make sure that you feel confident in your decision.
DONOR LIBRARY
For you to have an opportunity to find the perfect donor for you, we are committed to having the best donor options available
to you at all times. Our donors are more than just a number to us, and we dedicate the time we need to get to know each donor
on a personal level which also allows us to provide insightful staff evaluations and in-depth materials to better help you choose
the right donor for your family.
To make selecting your donor easy and affordable, we developed an online library that grants you unlimited info on every donor
in our current catalog. You can peruse basic information on each donor, or choose to purchase an All-Access Donor Subscription
that allows for extended profiles, downloads of all baby photos, audio interviews, Keirsey Personality evaluations and hand written
messages. The cost for our All-Access Donor Subscription is $50 and can be accessed on our website at seattlespermbank.com.
We have loved working with SSB.
The staff has been universally helpful,
engaging, smart, caring, genuine and
truly, in our minds, continues to reaffirm
our decision to work alongside Seattle
Sperm Bank in our most cherished
and significant adventure yet. We are
currently expecting and couldn’t be
more thrilled to embrace all the wonder
and challenges to come.

VIAL EXCHANGE AND BUY-BACK
e are proud to offer our clients the Seattle Sperm an ial xchange
uy ac rogram, an additional value added service
for those who purchase multiple vials up front, either for multiple attempts and/or additional pregnancies. Purchasing enough
vials for your needs up front ensures access to your chosen donor when you are ready, and our buy-back program allows you to
exchange or return unused vials if needed.
VIAL EXCHANGE
There are occasions when a client chooses to exchange a vial, most commonly because another donor has become available. In
these situations, there is no cost to you for exchanging comparable vials as we want to ma e sure you are
confident in your
donor selection.
BUY-BACK
As part of our ongoing commitment to you as a client, our buy-back option was implemented to offer the option to return a
purchase vial for 75% of the original purchase price.
Please note: In an effort to ensure the quality of the product that we offer our clients, all vials must have been purchased and
stored at Seattle Sperm Bank in order to be eligible for the buy-back program (or the vial exchange). Samples that have left our
facility are no longer eligible for the exchange or buy-back feature. For additional information on the vial exchange program,
please contact us at [email protected] or 1.800.709.1223.
PURCHASE, SHIPPING AND STORAGE
Once you have found your donor of choice, you can either purchase vials on the Website or call us at 1.800.709.1223.
Prior to shipping the vials, the necessary agreements and releases need to be completed. Our Recipient Semen and Storage
Agreement outlines the terms you and Seattle Sperm Bank agree to in purchasing, storing and/or using donor semen. Every client
is asked to complete this form and return it to us before vials are received.
The Clinic Release form provides prior written authorization from the licensed health care professional you are working with. This
document applies to purchases from clients who request to have vials delivered to any location in New York State or a location
that is not a clinic (i.e. for an at-home insemination). For New York State clients, this form can only be signed by a physician,
physician’s assistant or nurse practitioner. For at-home inseminations, it can be completed by a physician or other licensed health
care personnel. Both forms may be submitted via fax or email.
We offer several options for you in shipping and/or storing your vials. We ship to any worldwide destination and will work with
you on where/when to send your product.
SHIPPING:
Two-Day Shipping with Return
$150 – to WA/OR
$180 – all other states
In addition, we offer options for a long term plan such as when you purchase multiple vials or want to reserve ahead of time.
These range from a minimum of 1 month of free storage to longer-term options.

Thank you for allowing us to
walk you through the process.
The team of professionals at Seattle Sperm Bank love hearing about
happy families we help create. Our goal is to be here for you as you
take this life-changing step. We offer the resources of larger clinics,
but we operate on a first-name basis with our moms-to-be. So many
questions are in your head already. Our team will be communicative
and straightforward while we help you find the ideal match.
Please talk to us if you have questions about our testing process,
library of donors, our Open Identity program or any questions about
your next steps.
