1.                                       This Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made as of December 6,
2010 between MoSys, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and the
Investor.

 

2.                                       The Investor agrees to purchase from the Company, and the Company agrees to
issue and sell to the Investor the number of shares of common stock, par value
$.01 per share, (the “Shares”) of the Company set forth opposite the Investor’s
name on Schedule A for a purchase price of $[4.00][4.38] per share, or the
aggregate purchase price set forth on Schedule A, subject to the terms and
conditions hereof.  The Shares have been
registered and are offered for sale under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, pursuant to a registration statement on SEC Form S-3,
Registration No. 333-170327, and the prospectus dated November 3,
2010 and prospectus supplement dated December 6, 2010, which form part of
such registration statement.

 

3.                                       The completion of the purchase and sale of the Shares (the “Closing”) shall
occur on December 10, 2010 or at such other time as the Company and the Investor
mutually agree.  At the Closing, the
Investor shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Company by wire
transfer funds in the full amount of the purchase price for the Shares being
purchased.  Upon receipt by the Company
of the full amount of the purchase price for such Shares, the Company shall
deliver to the Investor, using customary book-entry procedures, the number of

set forth on Schedule A.

 

4.                                       This Agreement shall be independent of any other agreement between the
Company and any other purchaser of shares of common stock of the Company, and
the obligations of each party hereunder shall not be conditioned upon the
completion of the sale of shares by the Company to any other purchaser.

 

5.                                       This Agreement shall terminate as of December 17, 2010 in the event
that the Company has not received payment from the Investor of the full amount
of the purchase price for the Shares being purchased; provided,
that the termination of this Agreement shall not relieve the Investor from any
liability arising out of its failure to perform its obligations hereunder.

 

6.                                       This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the
internal laws of the State of California, without giving effect to the
principles of conflicts of law.  This
Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall
constitute an original, but all of which, when taken together, shall constitute
but one instrument, and shall become effective when one or more counterparts
have been signed by each party hereto and delivered to the other party.

 

Please confirm that the foregoing correctly sets forth
the agreement between us by signing in the space provided below for that

This Separation Agreement (“Agreement”) is entered into as of this 3rd day of December, 2010, among Grid Petroleum (the “Company”), Kelly Sundberg, Stephen Ronaldson (“Escrow Agent”) and Paul Watts (the “Executive”).

WHEREAS, Executive and Company, without any admission of liability, desire to settle with finality, compromise, dispose of, and release all claims, demands and causes of action Executive has or could assert against Company, whether arising out of Executive’s Employment Agreement with the Company, (the “Employment Agreement”) or the termination of the Employment Agreement, including the right to any notice thereof, or any condition or benefit of employment or otherwise. This Agreement is not and shall not be construed as an admission by Company of any liability, an admission against Company’s interest or any violation of Company's policies or procedures.

WHEREAS, Executive, the Company, Kelly Sundberg and Escrow Agent have entered into that certain escrow agreement dated April 20, 2010 (the “Escrow Agreement”) pursuant to which Mr. Sundberg has agreed to sell 6,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Shares”) to Executive under the terms of the Escrow Agreement.  The parties to the Escrow Agreement desire to terminate the Escrow Agreement and be governed by the terms of this Agreement and to release the Shares to Executive pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in exchange for consideration, the adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged, the Executive and the Company agree as follows:

	
  

	
1. Separation. The employment relationship between the Executive and the Company will terminate on 3rd  December 2010,  (the “Termination Date”). Effective as of the Termination Date, the Executive’s employment will terminate as (a) President  and Chief Executive Officer and (b) all other officer, director, committee member and employee positions with the  Company and its subsidiaries. Executive shall not be required to report for service after the date of this Agreement, and he shall vacate the Company’s premises and return Company property by such date.

 

	
  

	
2. Payments. The Company and the Executive hereby agree that the Company shall, in exchange for the release contained herein, pay Executive a $60,000 lump sum payment, less applicable taxes and withholdings, payable to Executive on the Termination Date.  The Company will also pay to Executive his computer and printer on the Termination Date.

 

	
  

	
3. Termination of Escrow Agreement. The parties to the Escrow Agreement agree that, pursuant to Section 7.1 of the Escrow Agreement, the Escrow Agreement will terminate effective upon execution of this Agreement.  The parties further agree that on the Termination Date, Escrow Agent shall immediately release the balance of Shares held in escrow to Executive. It is understood and agreed by the parties to this Agreement that the only duties and obligations of the Escrow Agent are those specifically stated in Section 3 of this Agreement.  Upon release of the balance of Shares held in escrow to Executive,  Escrow  Agent will be discharged as Escrow Agent and released and discharged by the parties hereto from any and all  liability, duties, or further responsibilities with regard to these instructions, the Shares, and otherwise.
