MOSYS, INC.
2019 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN
RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT


		
	
The Plan and Other Agreements
	
The RSUs that you are receiving are granted pursuant and subject in all respects to the applicable provisions of the Plan, which is incorporated herein by reference.  Capitalized terms not defined in this Agreement will have the meanings ascribed to them in the Plan.  

The attached Notice, this Agreement and the Plan constitute the entire understanding between you and the Company regarding this Award.  Any prior agreements, commitments or negotiations concerning this Award are superseded.  This Agreement may be amended by the Committee without your consent; however, if any such amendment would materially impair your rights or obligations under this Agreement, this Agreement may be amended only by another written agreement, signed by you and the Company.

	
Payment for RSUs
	
No cash payment is required for the RSUs you receive.  You are receiving the RSUs in consideration for Services rendered by you.

	
Vesting
	
The RSUs that you are receiving will vest in installments, as shown in the Notice of RSU Award.  No additional RSUs vest after your Service as an Employee or a Consultant has terminated for any reason.

	
Forfeiture 
	
If your Service terminates for any reason, then this Award expires immediately as to the number of RSUs that have not vested before the termination date and do not vest as a result of termination.  This means that the unvested RSUs will immediately be cancelled.  You receive no payment for RSUs that are forfeited.  The Company determines when your Service terminates for this purpose and all purposes under the Plan and its determinations are conclusive and binding on all persons.

	
Leaves of Absence
	
For purposes of this Award, your Service does not terminate when you go on a military leave, a sick leave or another bona fide leave of absence, if the leave of absence was approved by the Company in writing and if continued crediting of Service is required by the terms of the leave or by applicable law.  But your Service terminates when the approved leave ends, unless you immediately return to active work.

	
 
	
If you go on a leave of absence, then the vesting schedule specified in the Notice of Restricted Stock Unit Award may be adjusted in accordance with the Company’s leave of absence policy or the terms of your leave.  If you commence working on a part-time basis, then the vesting schedule specified in the Notice of Restricted Stock Unit Award may be adjusted in accordance with the Company’s part-time work policy or the terms of an agreement between you and the Company pertaining to your part-time schedule.

Nature of RSUs
	
Your RSUs are mere bookkeeping entries.  They represent only the Company’s unfunded and unsecured promise to issue Shares on a future date.  

As a holder of RSUs, you have no rights other than the rights of a general creditor of the Company.

	
No Voting Rights or Dividends
	
Your RSUs carry neither voting rights nor rights to dividends.  You, or your estate or heirs, have no rights as a stockholder of the Company unless and until your RSUs are settled by issuing Shares.  No adjustments will be made for dividends or other rights if the applicable record date occurs before your Shares are issued, except as described in the Plan.

	
RSUs Nontransferable
	
You may not sell, transfer, assign, pledge or otherwise dispose of any RSUs.  For instance, you may not use your RSUs as security for a loan.  If you attempt to do any of these things, your RSUs will immediately become invalid.

	
Settlement of RSUs
	
Each of your vested RSUs will be settled when it vests; provided, however, that settlement of each RSU will be deferred to the first permissible trading day for the Shares, if later than the applicable vesting date, but in no event later than two and one-half (2-1/2) months following the calendar year in which the applicable vesting date occurs.

For purposes of this Agreement, “permissible trading day” means a day that satisfies all of the following requirements: (1) the exchange on which the Shares are traded is open for trading on that day; (2) you are permitted to sell Shares on that day without incurring liability under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act; (3) either (a) you are not in possession of material non-public information that would make it illegal for you to sell Shares on that day under Rule 10b-5 under the Exchange Act or (b) Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act would apply to the sale; (4) you are permitted to sell Shares on that day under such written insider trading policy as may have been adopted by the Company; and (5) you are not prohibited from selling Shares on that day by a written agreement between you and the Company or a third party.

At the time of settlement, you will receive one Share for each vested RSU; provided, however, that no fractional Shares will be issued or delivered pursuant to the Plan or this Agreement, and the Committee will determine whether cash will be paid in lieu of any fractional Share or whether such fractional Share and any rights thereto will be canceled, terminated or otherwise eliminated.  In addition, the Shares are issued to you subject to the condition that the issuance of the Shares not violate any law or regulation.

Withholding Taxes and Stock Withholding 
	
Regardless of any action the Company and/or the Subsidiary or Affiliate employing you (“Employer”) takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related withholding (“Tax-Related Items”), you acknowledge that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by you is and remains your responsibility and that the Company and/or your Employer (1) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of this Award, including the award, vesting or settlement of the RSUs, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to settlement and the receipt of any dividends; and (2) do not 

commit to structure the terms of the award or any aspect of the RSUs to reduce or eliminate your liability for Tax-Related Items.

Prior to the settlement of the RSUs, you shall pay or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy all withholding and payment on account obligations of the Company and/or your Employer.  In this regard, you authorize the Company and/or your Employer to withhold all applicable Tax-Related Items legally payable by you from your wages or other cash compensation paid to you by the Company and/or your Employer.  With the Company’s consent, these arrangements may also include, if permissible under local law, (a) withholding Shares that otherwise would be issued to you when the RSUs are settled, provided that the Company only withholds Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount necessary to satisfy the maximum legally required tax withholding, (b) having the Company withhold taxes from the proceeds of the sale of the Shares, either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on your behalf pursuant to this authorization), or (c) any other arrangement approved by the Company.  The Fair Market Value of the Shares, determined as of the effective date when taxes otherwise would have been withheld in cash, will be applied as a credit against the withholding taxes.  Finally, you will pay to the Company or your Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or your Employer may be required to withhold as a result of your participation in the Plan or your acquisition of Shares that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described.  The Company may refuse to deliver the Shares if you fail to comply with your obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items as described in this section, and your rights to the Shares will be forfeited if you do not comply with such obligations on or before the date that is two and one-half (2-1/2) months following the calendar year in which the applicable vesting date for the RSUs occurs.

	
Restrictions on Resale
	
You agree not to sell any Shares at a time when applicable laws, Company policies or an agreement between the Company and its underwriters prohibit a sale.  This restriction will apply as long as your Service continues and for such period of time after the termination of your Service as the Company may specify.

	
No Retention Rights
	
Neither this Award nor this Agreement gives you the right to be employed or retained by the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company in any capacity.  The Company and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates reserve the right to terminate your Service at any time, with or without cause.

	
Adjustments
	
The number of RSUs covered by this Award will be subject to adjustment in the event of a stock split, a stock dividend or a similar change in Shares, and in other circumstances, as set forth in the Plan.  The forfeiture  provisions and restrictions described above will apply to all new, substitute or additional restricted stock units or securities to which you are entitled by reason of this Award.

To the extent this Agreement is subject to, and not exempt from, Section 409A of the Code, this Agreement is intended to comply with Section 409A, and its provisions will be interpreted in a manner consistent with such intent.  You acknowledge and agree that changes may be made to this Agreement to avoid adverse tax consequences to you under Section 409A.

	
Applicable Law and Choice of Venue
	
This Agreement will be interpreted and enforced under the laws of the State of Delaware as to matters within the scope thereof, and as to all other matters, the internal laws of the State of California, without regard to the laws of any other jurisdiction that might be applied because of the conflicts of laws principles of any state.

 

For purposes of litigating any dispute that arises directly or indirectly from the relationship of the parties evidenced by this Award or this Agreement, the parties hereby submit to and consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the State of California and agree that such litigation will be conducted only in the courts of Santa Clara County, California, or the federal courts for the United States for the Northern District of California, and no other courts, where this grant is made and/or to be performed.
