AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE DIRECTORS

        We have audited the balance sheets of Atmos Corporation as at January 31, 2002 and 2001 and the statements of operations and deficit and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

        We conducted our audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.

        In our opinion, these financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as at January 31, 2002 and 2001 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles.

COMMENTS BY AUDITORS FOR U.S. READERS ON CANADA—U.S. REPORTING DIFFERENCE

        In the United States of America, reporting standards for auditors require the addition of an explanatory paragraph (following the opinion paragraph) when the financial statements are affected by conditions and events that cast substantial doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, such as those described in Note 1(a) to the financial statements. Our report to the directors dated March 8, 2002 is expressed in accordance with Canadian reporting standards which do not permit a reference to such events and conditions in the auditor's report when these are adequately disclosed in the financial statements.

ATMOS CORPORATION

Notes to Financial Statements

Years ended January 31, 2002 and 2001

(Expressed in U.S. dollars)

        The Company was incorporated on February 22, 1994 to carry on the business of microelectronic consulting services. In fiscal 2000, the Company began developing and marketing embedded semi-conductor memory solutions to corporations which design and implement "Systems-on-chip" applications.

1. Significant accounting policies:

(a)
Basis of presentation:

        The financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As at January 31, 2002, the Company had positive working capital of $839,193, however for the year then ended it had incurred a loss of $5,561,218 and had negative cash flow from operations of $4,001,770. The Company expects to continue to incur operating losses for the foreseeable future. The Company currently has no operating line of credit.

        All of the above factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management has commenced implementation of a plan to address these issues including restructuring its organization and continuing to raise capital through the private placement of equity. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is subject to management's ability to successfully implement the above plans. Failure to implement these plans could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition and or results of operations. The financial statements do not include adjustments that may be required if the assets are not realized and the liabilities settled in the normal course of operations.

        In the longer term, the Company cannot be certain that cash generated from its future operations will be sufficient to satisfy its liquidity requirements and it may need to continue to raise capital by selling additional equity or by obtaining credit facilities. The Company's future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including, but not limited to, the market acceptance of its products and services. No assurance can be given that any such additional funding will be available or that, if available, it can be obtained on terms favourable to the Company.

(b)
Cash and cash equivalents:

        Cash and cash equivalents include guaranteed investment certificates ("GICs") of $1,265,582 (2001—$Nil). All GIC's have maturities of less than 365 days but are redeemable at anytime.

(c)
Property and equipment:Property and equipment are stated at cost. Property and equipment under capital leases are stated at the present value of minimum lease payments. Depreciation is provided using the following methods and rates:

Asset

  Method
  Rate
Furniture and fixtures   Declining balance   20%
Electronic equipment   Declining balance   30%
Computer equipment   Declining balance   30%
Computer software   Declining balance   100%
Software   Straight-line   4 years or
life of license

        Leasehold improvements are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the related lease term.

8



        One-half of one year's depreciation is taken in the year of acquisition.

(d)
Leases:

        Leases are classified as either capital or operating in nature. Capital leases are those which substantially transfer the benefits and risks of ownership to the lessee. Assets acquired under capital leases are depreciated at the same rates as those described in note 1(c) unless ownership of the asset does transfer in which case the asset is depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and its useful life. Obligations recorded under capital leases are reduced by the principal portion of lease payments. The imputed interest portion of lease payments is charged to expense.

(e)
Deferred lease inducement:

        Lease inducements are deferred and amortized over the term of the lease.

(f)
Revenue recognition:

        Revenue from software licenses is recognized when all of the following criteria have been met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed and determinable and collectibility is probable.

        Revenue from engineering and design services is recognized as the services are rendered based on contract milestones and collectibility is reasonably assured. Billings in advance of services rendered are recorded as deferred revenue and are recognized at the time services are rendered.

(g)
Research and development costs:

        Research costs are expensed as incurred. Development costs are expensed in the year incurred unless management believes a development project meets the Canadian generally accepted accounting criteria for deferral and amortization. No development costs incurred to date meet the criteria for deferral and amortization.

(h)
Investment tax credits:

        Investment tax credits are accounted for using the cost reduction approach whereby they are recorded as a reduction of the related expense or the cost of the assets acquired when there is reasonable assurance that they will be realized.

(i)
Income taxes:

        Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Future tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. When necessary, a valuation allowance is recorded to reduce tax assets to an amount for which realization is more likely than not. The effect of changes in tax rates is recognized in the period in which the rate change occurs.

(j)
Foreign currency translation:

        The Company's measurement currency is the Canadian dollar and its reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. Foreign currency transactions are translated into Canadian dollars at exchange rates in effect on the date of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities are translated into Canadian dollars at the exchange rate in effect as at the balance sheet date. Foreign currency gains and losses are included in income.

        The Company's financial statements are translated into U.S. dollars for reporting purposes. Assets and liabilities are translated at rates of exchange at the balance sheet date and revenue and expenses are translated at average exchange rates. Gains and losses arising from the translation of financial statements are deferred and included as a separate component of shareholders' equity (deficiency).

9



(k)
Stock-based compensation:

        No compensation expense is recognized for options granted to employees or non-employees when the option is granted. Proceeds received on the exercise of options granted to both employees and non-employees are recorded in shareholders' equity when the options are exercised.

(l)
Earnings per share:

        Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average shares outstanding during the reporting period. The treasury stock method is used for calculating diluted earnings per share. Under the treasury stock method, diluted earnings per share are computed similar to basic earnings per share except that the weighted average shares outstanding are increased to include additional shares from the assumed exercise of stock options, if dilutive. The number of additional shares is calculated by assuming that outstanding stock options were exercised and that the proceeds were used to acquire shares of common stock at the average market price during the reporting period.

(m)
Use of estimates:

        The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and disclosures in these financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant management estimates include assumptions used in estimating investment tax credits receivable. Receipt of these credits is dependent on Canada Customs and Revenue Agency's review and acceptance of the eligibility of expenditures.

Cash payments of $1,718,406 (2001—$280,554) were made to purchase property and equipment.

        In addition, during the year ended January 31, 2002, property and equipment under capital leases with a net book value of $45,389 was disposed of in exchange for forgiveness of the remaining capital lease obligation of $40,769. A loss of $4,620 was recognized on the transaction.

3. Term deposit:

  Investment tax credits receivable         (83,000 )
   
 
 
    $   $  
   
 
 

        Income tax expense attributable to income (loss) before income taxes was $Nil (2001—$Nil) and differed from the amounts computed by applying the Canadian federal and provincial income tax rates of 41.83% (2001—43.80%) to income (loss) before income taxes as a result of the following:

 
  2002
  2001
 
Expected tax rate     41.83%     43.80%  
Expected Canadian income tax recovery   $ (2,326,257 ) $ (1,833,397 )

  Non-taxable gain         (30,000 )
  Other     6,257     8,397  
   
 
 
    $   $  
   
 
 

        At January 31, 2002, non-capital loss carryforwards were available to reduce future taxable income, the benefit of which has not been recognized in the financial statements. The losses expire as follows:

 
  Federal
  Provincial
2007   $ 240,000   $ 240,000
2008     3,045,000     3,953,000
2009     2,056,000     2,550,000
   
 
    $ 5,341,000   $ 6,743,000
   
 

15


        The Company also has amounts deductible for income tax purposes in excess of amounts deducted for book purposes of approximately $4,176,000 (2001—$388,000) primarily due to unclaimed scientific research and experimental development expenditures. The benefit of these amounts has not been recognized in the financial statements.

        The Company has investment tax credit carryforwards available to reduce income taxes payable in Canada which expire as follows: 2010—$1,266; 2011—$79,100; and 2012—$1,059,000.

8. Related party transactions:

        During the year ended January 31, 2002, the Company purchased a software license from a shareholder for cash consideration of $199,329. At January 31, 2002, $151,870 is included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities.

        In addition, during the year ended January 31, 2002, the Company extended a loan to one of its shareholders. The loan was secured by 50,000 common shares of the Company. Subsequent to January 31, 2002, the loan was written off and the shares redeemed. As this transaction occurred prior to the release of the financial statements, it has been reflected in the statement of operations for the year ended January 31, 2002.

9. Commitments:

        The Company is committed to payments under operating leases for office space and software. Annual payments are approximately as follows:

 
  2002
  2001
2002   $   $ 196,300
2003     286,080     233,400
2004     243,750     222,650
2005     243,750     190,100
2006     243,750     190,100
2007     243,750    
   
 
    $ 1,261,080   $ 1,032,550

10. Loss per share:

        For the purposes of the loss per share computation, the weighted average number of common shares outstanding has been used. Had the treasury stock method been applied to the unexercised share options and the preferred shares been converted, the effect on the loss per share would be anti-dilutive.

        The following securities could potentially dilute basic earnings per share in the future but have not been included in diluted earnings per share because their effect was antidilutive:

 
  2002
  2001
Class A preferred shares   3,200,000   1,500,000
Class B preferred shares   6,131,153   3,773,314
Class C preferred shares    
Class D series 1 preferred shares   3,333,333  
Class D series 2 preferred shares   1,898,148  
Stock options   2,573,728   1,862,166

11. Financial instruments:

    Fair values

        The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, amounts receivable, investment tax credits receivable, shareholder loan receivable, term deposit and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair value due to the relatively short periods to maturity of the instruments. The fair values of other financial assets and liabilities included in the consolidated balance sheet are as follows:

 
  January 31, 2002
  January 31, 2001
 
  Carrying

Capital lease obligations   $ 685,128   $ 668,032   $ 168,931   $ 166,098
Convertible debentures             2,719,959     2,719,959

        The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate fair value of each class of financial instrument:

        Capital lease obligations and convertible debentures—at the present value of contractual future payments, discounted at the current market rates of interest available to the Company for the same or similar debt instruments.

12. Segmented information:

        Management has determined that the Company operates in one dominant industry segment which involves the development and marketing of embedded semi-conductor memory solutions. All of the Company's operations, assets and employees are located in Canada.

13. United States accounting principles:

        The financial statements presented herein have been prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). The significant differences between Canadian and

Note 1. Basis of pro forma presentation

        On August 30, 2002, the Company acquired ATMOS Corporation ("ATMOS"), a Canada based privately held company. ATMOS is a semiconductor memory company that focuses on creating high-density, compiler-generated embedded memory solution for System-on-a-Chip ("SoC") applications. The total purchase price for the acquisition of approximately $12.3 million has been accounted for under the purchase method of accounting for business combinations. The Company paid $11.7 million in cash along with a distribution of 26,843 shares of common stock to ATMOS employees with a combined total fair value of $12.0 million in exchange for all outstanding stock of ATMOS. Under the purchase method of accounting, the common stock has been valued using the Company's average stock price for the five-day period (two days before, day of and two days after) ending June 10, 2002, which was $11.47. Direct transaction costs related to the acquisition are estimated to be approximately $313,000. The Company loaned $500,000 to ATMOS under a promissory note due on July 31, 2002, which has been included in the cash portion of the purchase price.

        The Company issued options to purchase a total of 320,000 shares of common stock to continuing ATMOS employees immediately following the closing. The exercise price of the MoSys options was equal to the closing price of a share of the Company's common stock on the Nasdaq National Market at the close of business on the closing date of the acquisition. The options granted to ATMOS employees are subject to the terms of the Company's 2000 Employee Stock Option Plan. Since the options issued were for post-acquisition services and not replacement awards for ATMOS options, the Company did not include the value in the total purchase price of the acquisition.

        The Company issued 34,900 shares of restricted stock and paid restricted cash of $153,000 to AMTOS continuing employees in exchange for outstanding stock of ATMOS. These transactions were accounted under compensation for post-combination services rather than additional purchase price as they are subject to future services. The shares and cash are subject to forfeiture in the event that the employees cease to be employed by the Company. The Company recorded approximately $314,000 of unearned compensation related the restricted shares, which will be amortized over the vesting period of 24 months using the graded method. The restricted cash shall cease to be restricted on the first anniversary of the closing date; therefore, it will be amortized over 12 months.

        The acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting for business combinations in accordance with Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, Business Combinations. Under the purchase method of accounting, the purchase price is allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair value. The pro forma financial information has been prepared on the basis of assumptions described in the following notes and includes assumptions relating to the allocation of the consideration paid for the assets and liabilities of ATMOS based on preliminary estimates of their fair values from an independent appraisal. The actual allocation of such consideration may differ from that reflected in the pro forma financial statements after valuations that have been completed. The Company does not expect that the final allocation of the purchase price will differ materially from the preliminary allocation.

        Under the purchase method of accounting, the total estimated purchase price, calculated as described in Notes 1 and 2 to these unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial statements, is allocated to the net tangible and intangible assets of ATMOS acquired in connection with the acquisition, based on their fair values as of the completion of the acquisition. Independent valuation specialists are currently conducting an independent valuation in order to assist management of MoSys in determining the fair values of a significant portion of these assets. The preliminary work performed by the independent valuation specialists has been considered in management's estimates of the fair values reflected in these unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial statements. A final determination of these fair values will include management's consideration of a final valuation prepared by the independent valuation specialists. This final valuation will be based on the

27



actual net tangible and intangible assets of ATMOS that existed as of the date of completion of the acquisition.

        The unaudited pro forma combined condensed balance sheet as of June 30, 2002 gives effect to this acquisition as if it had occurred on June 30, 2002 and, due to different fiscal period ends, combines the historical balance sheet of the Company at June 30, 2002, and the historical balance sheet of ATMOS at July 31, 2002. The unaudited pro forma combined condensed statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2002 give effect to the acquisition as if it had occurred on January 1, 2002 and, due to different fiscal period ends, combines the historical results of the Company for the six months ended June 30, 2002, and the historical results of ATMOS for the six months ended July 31, 2002. The unaudited pro forma combined condensed statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2001 give effect to the acquisition as if it had occurred on January 1, 2001, and, due to different fiscal period ends, combines the historical results of the Company for the 12 months ended December 31, 2001, and the historical results of ATMOS for the 12 months ended January 31, 2002.

        The unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial information is presented for illustrative purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the operating results or financial position that would have actually occurred if the acquisition had been consummated as of the dates indicated, nor is it necessarily indicative of future operating results of financial position.

Note 2. Purchase Price Allocation

        The total purchase price of ATMOS is as follows:

 
   
Cash   $ 11,227
Loan note     500
Shares     308
Direct costs of acquisition     313
   
    $ 12,348

        Actual expected goodwill is anticipated to be approximately $12.3 million due to changes in net assets from July 31, 2002 to the date of acquisition.

        The Company's allocation of the aggregate purchase price is based on management's analysis and estimates of the fair values of the tangible and intangible assets. The book values of tangible assets and liabilities acquired are assumed to approximate fair values. The purchase price has been allocated to the tangible assets acquired based on management's estimate of their fair values, and to the intangible assets acquired based on their estimated fair values as determined by an independent appraisal. Goodwill will be reviewed annually for impairment based on estimated future undiscounted cash flows attributable to goodwill, or more frequently, if impairment indicators arise. In the event such cash flows

28



are not expected to be sufficient to recover the recorded value of goodwill, it is written down to its estimated fair value. The allocation is summarized below (in thousands):

Tangible assets acquired:        
  Cash   $ 150  
  Prepaids and other assets     498  
  Fixed Assets     1,331  
   
 
    Total tangible assets     1,979  
   
 
Total liabilities acquired     (1,855 )
   
 
Net assets acquired     124  
Intangible assets acquired:        
  Goodwill     12,224  
   
 
    Total consideration   $ 12,348  
   
 

Note 3. Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Net Income per Share

        Net income per share and shares used in computing the pro forma combined net income per share are based upon the Company's historical weighted average common shares outstanding together with the shares issued in the transaction as if such shares were issued January 1, 2001 for the year ended December 31, 2001, and January 1, 2002 for the six months ended June 30, 2002.

Note 4. Purchase Adjustments

        The following adjustments were applied to the combined financial statements:

    (A)
    To reflect the issuance of cash and loan notes in the acquisition and to record estimated transaction costs and other assets and liabilities at their fair values.

    (B)
    To reflect the elimination of the stockholders' equity accounts of ATMOS.

    (C)
    To record stock compensation associated with shares issued subject to forfeiture. Unearned compensation is amortized using the graded method over the vesting period of 3 years, which results in the amortization of approximately 61% in the first year.

    (D)
    To reflect the cash compensation given subject to forfeiture. The cash compensation is amortized over 12 months.

    (E)
    To reflect elimination of additional paid in capital of ATMOS, and to reflect deferred compensation and share consideration arising on the issuance of shares:

Elimination of ATMOS additional paid in capital   $ (15,079 )
Deferred stock compensation     314  
Share consideration     308  
   
 
    $ (14,457 )
    (F)
    To reflect fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of ATMOS.

The Withheld Amount shall be deposited by MoSys in a trust account of their Canadian counsel Blake Cassels & Graydon LLP, which shall be invested in short-term interest bearing securities for and held for the benefit of the particular Vendor, and shall be remitted to the Receiver General of Canada on the day that the Withheld Amount is required to be so remitted pursuant to subsection 116(5) of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the “Remittance Date”).  The Remittance Date shall be extended if the Canada Customs and Revenue Agency issues a letter of extension for such remittance to MoSys.  All interest received by Blake Cassels & Graydon LLP or MoSys on the Withheld Amount shall be for the account of the Vendor, and the full amount of such interest less any Taxes required to be deducted or withheld from such interest shall be paid to the Vendor on the Remittance Date.  MoSys is hereby authorized to execute any documents and take any action as will enable it to satisfy its

 

13



 

liabilities and obligations under section 116 of the ITA, including the remittance of the Withheld Amount to the Receiver General of Canada under subsection 116(5) of the ITA.  The balance, if any, of the Vendor’s Consideration will be released to the Vendor on the Closing Date.

(c)           Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraphs (a) and (b), if the Vendor delivers a Section 116 Certificate or a replacement Section 116 Certificate to MoSys at any time after Closing and at least one Business Day prior to the Remittance Date and such certificate specifies a certificate limit in an amount no less than the Vendor’s Consideration, MoSys shall deliver the Withheld Amount together with all interest received by MoSys on the Withheld Amount less any Taxes required to be deducted or withheld from such interest, to the Vendor within three Business Days after the Section 116 Certificate is delivered to MoSys.

(d)           In any case where MoSys and/or Blake Cassels & Graydon LLP withholds and remits to the Receiver General of Canada any amount pursuant to this Section 2.10, such withheld amount (prior to conversion into Canadian dollars) shall be treated for all purposes as having been paid to the Vendor on account of the Vendor’s Consideration, provided that the amounts so withheld have been remitted to the Vendor in question or to the Receiver General of Canada on its behalf and provided that the interest so required to be paid less any Taxes required to be deducted or withheld from such interest is paid to the Vendor in question.

2.11         Employee Amount.  At Closing, MoSys will not withhold any portion of the consideration payable to a holder of Common Shares, subject to receipt of an appropriate tax opinion letter from KPMG; provided that if MoSys is assessed any payment, fine or penalty by Canadian taxation authorities for failing to withhold the amount (the “Employee Amount”) that is required to be withheld under the ITA on the amount of the aggregate amount of the employment benefit or benefits realized by such Employee under Section 7 of the ITA as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, such Employee agrees to pay MoSys the Employee Amount (including interest and penalties), and further agrees that MoSys may set off the Employee Amount against the Restricted Cash and Restricted Shares subject to the RSPA.

2.12         Employee Withheld Amount.  On Closing, MoSys, or its designated Agent, will withhold from the portion of the consideration otherwise payable to a holder of Atmos Options the amount (the “Employee Withheld Amount”) that is required to be withheld under the ITA on the amount of the aggregate amount of the employment benefit or benefits realized by such Employee under Section 7 of the ITA (the “Employment Benefit”) as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.  As soon as commercially reasonable following Closing, MoSys shall convert the Employee Withheld Amount into Canadian dollars at reasonable commercial exchange rates.  MoSys will cause Atmos, and Atmos hereby agrees, to remit the Employee Withheld Amount to the appropriate taxation authorities on account of Canadian income tax payable by Employee in respect of the Employment Benefit.  The Employee Withheld Amount shall be treated for all purposes as having been paid to the Employee on account of the portion of the consideration payable to such Employee.

(a)           Subject to Sections 6.1 and 6.5, each of the Vendors agrees, on a several basis (and not jointly or jointly and severally) and only in respect to the Personal Representations and Warranties given by such particular Vendor, to indemnify MoSys, and its respective shareholders, Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys, contractors and their respective successors, assigns, heirs and personal representatives (collectively, the “MoSys Indemnitees”), severally, against and in respect of any and all Damages, either incurred directly by such Indemnitee or indirectly as a result of Damages incurred by any MoSys Indemnitee, which arise out of, result from or relate to any breach of or inaccuracy in any of the Personal Representations and Warranties made by such particular Vendor, or any representation or warranty in any certificate delivered by such particular Vendor to MoSys pursuant to this Agreement and from the breach by such particular Vendor of its Vendor Release.  The parties acknowledge that, upon Closing, Atmos shall be deemed to be a MoSys Indemnitee.

(b)           Subject to Section 6.5, MoSys shall indemnify each Vendor and their respective shareholders, Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys, contractors and their respective successors, assigns, heirs and personal representatives (collectively, the “Vendor Indemnitees”) against and in respect of any and all Damages either incurred directly by such Indemnitee or indirectly as a result of Damages incurred by any Vendor Indemnitee, which arise

 

35



 

out of, result from or relate to any breach of or inaccuracy in any of the representations and warranties of MoSys contained in Section 4.2 or in any certificate delivered by MoSys pursuant to this Agreement.

6.5           Limitation on Claims.

(a)           All Damages incurred by any MoSys Indemnitee shall be satisfied only from the Escrow Property (as defined in the Escrow Agreement), except as otherwise provided in this Section 6.5.

(b)           No Vendor will be liable for Damages pursuant to Section 6.4(a) with respect to an amount in excess of the consideration paid to such Vendor.

(c)           Notwithstanding Section 6.5(a), each Vendor shall be solely responsible for and shall indemnify the MoSys Indemnitees against and in respect of any and all Damages incurred by MoSys which arise out of, result from or relate to any breach of or inaccuracy in any of the Personal Representations and Warranties of such Vendor, or any breach of such Vendor’s Release, subject to the limitations on Damages set forth in this Section 6.5(b).

(d)           Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the limitations set forth in this Section 6.5 shall not apply to a claim or Damages arising out of the knowing personal fraud or willful or reckless misconduct of a Party or its agents or any breach of such Vendor’s Release.

6.6           Notice of Claims.  Any claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 6.4(a) shall be made by written notice from the MoSys Indemnitee to the Holders’ Agent in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement or pursuant to Section 6.4(b) from the Holders’ Agent or the Virage Group to MoSys in accordance with Section 8.2; provided, however, that any claim in respect of the Personal Representations and Warranties, which are given on a several basis, shall be made by MoSys directly to the particular Vendor.

6.7           Disputed and Third-Party Claims.

(a)           If any Party shall give notice of a claim in accordance with Section 6.6, and MoSys and the Holders’ Agent (or the particular Vendor acting on its own behalf, as the case may be) do not resolve such matter by written agreement within 45 days after such notice is given, the dispute will be settled exclusively by arbitration before a single arbitrator appointed by JAMS/Endispute.  If the total amount (not including interest) of the dispute and any counterclaim exceeds $50,000, the arbitration will be conducted in accordance with the Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures of JAMS/Endispute; any other arbitration under this Section will be conducted in accordance with the Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures of JAMS/Endispute.  The arbitral award shall allocate the arbitrator’s fees and expenses according to the relative success of MoSys and the Holders’ Agent in the arbitration, as determined by the arbitrator.

(b)           In the event of a claim by MoSys under Section 6.4(a) which, based on the relief sought by the claimant, can be fully satisfied by the available Escrow Amount (after deducting the full amount of all other pending claims for Damages) (a “Third-Party Claim”), Holders’ Agent (or the particular Vendor acting on its own behalf, as the case may be) will have the

 

36



 

option, exercisable by written notice to MoSys within 20 days after receipt of MoSys’s notice, to control the defense of such Third-Party Claim.  All expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Holders’ Agent (or the particular Vendor acting on its own behalf, as the case may be) in connection with his assumption of control of the defense of a Third-Party Claim shall be paid by the Holders’ Agent.  If the Holders’ Agent (or the particular Vendor acting on its own behalf, as the case may be) has not so assumed the defense of a Third-Party Claim, then MoSys shall have the right to control the defense of the Third-Party Claim, and the expenses reasonably incurred by MoSys in connection with such defense shall be recoverable as part of the Damages which are the source of the underlying claim.

(c)           In the event any claim alleging Damages in excess of the available Escrow Property (after deducting the full amount of all pending claims for Damages), MoSys shall have the sole right to control the defense of any such claim and the expenses reasonably incurred by MoSys in connection with such defense shall be recoverable as part of the Damages which are the source of the underlying claim.

(d)           The party controlling the defense may use counsel selected by it to conduct such defense and shall notify the other party of such selection.  If the other party reasonably objects within 20 days after designation of counsel initially selected that such counsel’s representation or potential representation of the designating party in matters in which MoSys’s and the Vendors’ or Atmos’s interests are adverse or potentially adverse, the designating party shall select other counsel free of any such adverse representation.  The party controlling the defense shall have the right, in its discretion exercised in good faith and upon the advice of counsel, to settle such matter, either before or after the initiation of litigation, at such time and upon such terms as they deem fair and reasonable, provided that (i) at least 10 days’ prior notice shall be given to the other party of the intention to settle the Third-Party Claim, (ii) no settlement by the controlling party shall include any equitable relief binding on the noncontrolling party, and (iii) the controlling party shall not agree to any settlement of such Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the other party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.  The noncontrolling party will have the right to be represented by counsel, solely at its own expense.  The controlling party shall keep the other party advised of the status of the Third-Party Claim and the defense thereof and shall consider in good faith recommendations made by the other party with respect thereto.

(e)           Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, arbitration of a claim by MoSys with respect to a Third-Party Claim shall be deferred until the resolution of the Third-Party Claim.

(f)            Certain Specified Claims.  The parties acknowledge and agree that Pixim and Atmos have asserted claims against one another with respect to the License and Services Agreement dated August 21, 2001 between Pixim and Atmos, which they have agreed to resolve by binding arbitration.  All Damages to any MoSys Indemnitee from this dispute shall represent a claim against Escrow subject to the provisions of this Article 6.  The net proceeds of any recovery by Atmos from Pixim in the arbitration proceeding shall be deposited into the Escrow and disbursed in the manner provided in the Escrow Agreement.  MoSys agrees that counsel chosen by the Vendors will represent Atmos in the arbitration proceeding against Pixim, subject to the provisions of this Section 6.7.  The parties further acknowledge and agree that all reasonable employee severance amounts that Atmos becomes obligated to pay after the Closing which arise from terminations which occur prior to the Closing in excess of the amounts set forth

 

37



 

in Schedule 6.7(f) attached, shall represent a claim against Escrow subject to the provisions of this Article 6.

ARTICLE 7 - ADDITIONAL COVENANTS OF THE VENDORS AND MOSYS

7.1           Non-DisclosureEach Party agrees not to divulge or communicate, or use for any purpose other than evaluating this transaction or exercising rights as a Party hereto, any information or materials concerning this Agreement, the negotiation between the Parties hereto and the transactions contemplated hereby, except to the extent that such information (i) is or hereafter becomes lawfully obtainable from other sources, (ii) is required to be disclosed to a Governmental Agency having jurisdiction over the Party or its Affiliates, (iii) is otherwise required by law to be disclosed, (iv) is disclosed following a waiver in writing from the other Parties, (v) was known by the receiving Party prior to disclosure by the other party, or (vi) has been disclosed prior to the date of this Agreement.

7.2           AccessBetween the date of this Agreement and the Closing or any earlier termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, each Vendor will (i) provide MoSys and its authorized representatives with such access to Atmos’s books, records, Properties, officers, attorneys and accountants as each such Vendor is authorized to obtain for himself and permit MoSys to make inspections and copies of such books and records, and (ii) furnish MoSys with such financial information and operating data and other information with respect to Atmos’s business and Properties as such Vendor possesses or is entitled to obtain, all as MoSys may from time to time reasonably request for the purposes of this Agreement, during normal office hours.  MoSys shall give each Vendor reasonable advance notice of any on-site visit, and such Vendor shall have the right to cause the agents of MoSys to be accompanied by an officer or designated employee of such Vendor.

7.3           Reasonable Business Efforts, No Inconsistent ActionEach Party will use its reasonable business efforts to cause the conditions over which it has control to be satisfied on or before the Closing; provided that MoSys shall not be obligated to consent to or waive compliance with any matter specified as requiring its consent in Section 3.2.  No Party will take any action which will foreseeably result in the failure to satisfy any condition stated in Section 3.2 or 3.3 on or before the Closing.

7.4           Indemnification of Atmos Indemnitees.  The Vendors agree that all rights to indemnification for acts or omissions occurring prior to the Closing Time in favor of the directors or executive officers of Atmos (the “Atmos Indemnitees”) as provided in Atmos’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws, in effect immediately prior to the Closing Time or granted by contract shall terminate at the Closing Time, except as to claims brought against the Atmos Indemnitee as an agent of Atmos (i) if such Atmos Indemnitee had knowledge of such claim or the basis of such claim as of the date of the Closing, (ii) such claim has been disclosed on the appropriate schedule to this Agreement, and (iii) such claim would not constitute a breach of any representation or warranty under Section 4.1 or in the Vendors’ Releases.

7.5           Termination of this Agreement.

(a)           MoSys may terminate this Agreement prior to Closing and the transactions contemplated hereunder in the event (i) of any breach of any covenant of a Vendor under this Agreement, (ii) any closing condition under Section 3.2 is not satisfied prior to August 31, 2002,

 

38



 

(iii) of material default hereunder by any Vendor, or (iv) of mutual agreement by MoSys and the Principal Vendors to terminate this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereunder.  Termination of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereunder by MoSys for any other reason will constitute an abandonment of such transactions by MoSys.

(b)           If any condition stated in Section 3.3 is not satisfied prior to August 31, 2002, then, provided the Vendors are not in material default hereunder, the Vendors and the Holders’ Agent may at any time thereafter terminate their respective obligations under this Agreement including, as applicable, under or arising from any exhibits, certificates and schedules thereto by giving written notice thereof to MoSys.  No Vendor may terminate this Agreement or abandon the transactions contemplated hereunder for any other reason.

(c)           No termination will terminate or otherwise affect the obligations of the Parties under Sections 7.1 or 8.1.

7.6           Termination of Other Agreements.  The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that, in conjunction with the payments to be made to the Virage Group hereunder and the sale of all of its interest in Atmos, the various agreements and arrangements between the Virage Group and Atmos (the “Virage Agreements”) shall be terminated, and, as contemplated by the Mutual Release to be delivered on Closing as provided for in Sections 3.2(i) and 3.3(d)(vi) hereof by some of the parties hereto and certain others, including Atmos, each of the parties hereto hereby covenants and agrees to release each other from any claims or accrued entitlements under the Virage Agreements (known or unknown) subject to the terms of this Section 7.6. 

Notwithstanding the terms of the agreements referred to below, each of the parties hereto hereby covenants and agrees that the following provisions shall apply among Atmos, MoSys, the Virage Group and, where applicable, the other parties hereto:

(a)           The Vendors agree that all of their respective rights and obligations under that certain Share Purchase Agreement dated as of June 29, 2001 among Atmos, Virage and certain other purchasers, the Atmos Shareholders’ Agreement and the Share Purchase Option Agreement will be terminated, canceled and without force or effect immediately after the Closing Time and no party thereto shall have any ongoing rights, obligations, claims or entitlements thereunder.

(b)           With respect to that certain Technology License Agreement made as of June 29, 2001 among Atmos, Virage and Mosaid, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the License contemplated therein never became effective (as provided in Section 2.5 of such agreement), that Virage was never given access to the technology and “Atmos Intellectual Property” contemplated thereunder and, accordingly, such agreement will be terminated effective as of the Closing of the transactions herein contemplated and no party thereto shall have any ongoing rights, obligations, claims or entitlements thereunder.

7.7           Exclusivity.  Between the date of this Agreement and the earlier of the Closing Date and the permissible termination of this Agreement and abandonment of the transactions contemplated hereby pursuant to Section 7.5 (a) or (b), the Vendors, and each of them, agree not to enter into any agreement with respect to an Acquisition Transaction or commence, continue or conduct any discussions, directly or indirectly, with any other party concerning any Acquisition Proposal.

8.4           Effect of Waiver.  A waiver of any default, breach or non-compliance under this Agreement is not effective unless in writing and signed by the Party to be bound by the waiver.  No waiver shall be inferred from or implied by any failure to act or delay in acting by a Party in respect of any default, breach or non-observance or by anything done or omitted to be done by the other Party.  The waiver by a Party of any default, breach or non-compliance under this Agreement shall not operate as a waiver of that Party’s rights under this Agreement in respect of any continuing or subsequent default, breach or non-observance (whether of the same or any other nature).

8.5           Severability.  Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability and shall be severed from the balance of this Agreement, all without affecting the remaining provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

8.6           Non-Merger.  Each Party hereby agrees that all provisions of this Agreement (other than the representations and warranties contained in Article 4, which shall survive for the periods specified in that Article or in Article 6, as the case may be) shall forever survive the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, the Closing and the execution, delivery and performance of any and all documents delivered in connection with this Agreement.

8.9           Gender.  A third person reference to “him” or “his” with respect to a Vendor is made without regard to actual status or gender of the Vendor and shall be deemed to apply to all Persons that are Vendors.

8.10         Governing Law; Waiver of Jury Trial; ForumThis Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with applicable laws of the state of California without regard to any principles governing conflicts of laws.  The parties hereby waive, and consent to the waiver of, any right they may have to a jury trial.  Except as provided otherwise in Section 6.7(a), any dispute which arises with respect to any part of this Agreement shall be prosecuted in a court of competent jurisdiction situated in Santa Clara County, California, USA.

 

42



 

8.11         Successors and AssignsThis Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding on, the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.  No Party may assign or transfer, whether absolutely, by way of security or otherwise, all or any part of its respective rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Parties.

8.12         CounterpartsThis Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument.  Counterparts may be executed either in original or faxed form and the Parties adopt any signatures received by a receiving fax machine as original signatures of the Parties; provided, however, that either the Party providing its signature in such manner shall promptly forward to the other Parties an original of the signed copy of this Agreement which was so faxed.

Exhibit 23.3


Independent Auditors' Consent

The Board of Directors
Monolithic System Technology, Inc.:

We consent to the incorporation by reference in the registration statement (No. 333-64302) on Form S-8 of Monolithic System Technology, Inc. of our report dated March 8, 2002, with respect to the balance sheets of ATMOS Corporation as of January 31, 2002 and 2001, and the related statements of operations and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended January 31, 2002, which report appears in the Form 8-K/A of Monolithic System Technology, Inc. dated November 13, 2002.

Our report dated March 8, 2002 contains a Comment by Auditors for U.S. Readers on Canada-U.S. Difference that is included because, as disclosed in Note 1 (a) to the statements, the Company has incurred losses for the year, generated negative cash flow from operations for the year, and expects to incur further operating losses and has no lines of credit, which raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedules do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of that uncertainty.
