Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On July 2, 2007, MoSys, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an asset purchase agreement and a transition services agreement with Atmel Corporation with respect to the purchase of several mixed signal integrated circuit designs and related assets from Atmel, including the rights to acquire an Atmel subsidiary located in Romania that employs 58 people and another Atmel subsidiary located in Shanghai, China that employs 45 people.  Under the agreement MoSys paid cash, assumed liabilities of Atmel and its subsidiaries, and agreed to reimburse some pre-closing operating expenses, the total amount of all of which is less than $2.0 million.  Pending required local government approval of the transfer of ownership of these subsidiaries to the Company, Atmel has agreed to operate both entities for the Company at the Company’s expense for a term of up to six months pursuant to a transition services agreement.  The Company estimates these direct expenses to be approximately $1.2 million per quarter.
