Item 8.01 Other Events

On February 14, 2017, MoSys, Inc. (the “Company”) filed a certificate of amendment to its amended and restated certificate of incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware to effect a one-for-ten reverse stock split of the Company’s shares of common stock. Such amendment and ratio were previously approved by the Company’s stockholders and board of directors, respectively.

As a result of the reverse stock split, every ten shares of the Company’s pre-reverse split outstanding common stock will be combined and reclassified into one share of common stock. Proportionate voting rights and other rights of common stock holders will not be affected by the reverse stock split. No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the reverse stock split; stockholders who would otherwise hold a fractional share of common stock will receive cash in an amount equal to the product obtained by multiplying (i) the closing sale price of the Company’s common stock on the effective date of the reverse stock split as reported on Nasdaq, by (ii) the number of shares of the Company’s common stock held by the stockholder that would otherwise have been exchanged for the fractional share interest.

All stock options and restricted stock units outstanding and common stock reserved for issuance under the Company’s equity incentive plans immediately prior to the reverse stock split will be appropriately adjusted by dividing the number of affected shares of common stock by 10 and, as applicable, multiplying the exercise price by 10, as a result of the reverse stock split.

The reverse stock split will be effective at 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on February 15, 2017, and the Company’s common stock will trade on the NASDAQ Capital Market on a post-split basis at the open of trading on February 16, 2017. The Company’s post-reverse split common stock will have a new CUSIP number, 619718208, and the par value will be adjusted to $0.001 per share. Other terms of the common stock are not affected by the reverse stock split.

The Company’s transfer agent, Wells Fargo Shareowner Services, is acting as exchange agent for the reverse stock split and will send instructions to stockholders of record regarding the exchange of certificates for common stock for uncertificated shares of common stock. Stockholders owning shares via a broker or other nominee will have their positions automatically adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split, subject to the brokers' particular processes, and will not be required to take any action in connection with the reverse stock split.

On February14, 2017, the Company issued a press release with respect to the reverse stock split, which is being filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K. A copy of the certificate of amendment to the amended and restated certificate of incorporation is being filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

Exhibit 3.1

 

CERTIFICATE OF AMENDMENT OF
RESTATED CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION
OF MOSYS, INC.

 

 

MoSys, Inc. (the "Corporation"), a corporation duly organized and existing under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, does hereby certify that:

 

1. The Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation, filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on November 12, 2010, is hereby amended by deleting paragraph (A) of Article IV thereof in its entirety and substituting the following in lieu thereof:

 

"The Corporation shall be authorized to issue 140,000,000 shares of capital stock, of which 120,000,000 shares shall be shares of Common Stock, $.001 par value ("Common Stock") and 20,000,000 shares shall be shares of Preferred Stock, $.001 par value ("Preferred Stock") of which one hundred twenty thousand (120,000) shares, $0.01 par value per share, are designated “Series AA Preferred Stock” pursuant to the certificate of designations that created such series as filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware.  Upon this Certificate of Amendment to the Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation becoming effective pursuant to the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the "Effective Time"), every ten (10) shares of the Corporation's common stock, par value $.001 per share (the "Old Common Stock"), issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, will be automatically reclassified as and converted into one share of common stock, par value $.001 per share, of the Corporation (the "New Common Stock").

 

Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, no fractional shares of New Common Stock shall be issued to the holders of record of Old Common Stock in connection with the foregoing reclassification of shares of Old Common Stock.  In lieu thereof, the aggregate of all fractional shares otherwise issuable to the holders of record of Old Common Stock shall be issued to the Corporation's transfer agent, as agent for the accounts of all holders of record of Old Common Stock otherwise entitled to have a fraction of a share issued to them. The sale of all of the fractional interests will be

 

effected by the transfer agent as soon as practicable after the Effective Time on the basis of prevailing market prices of the New Common Stock on the applicable tier of The Nasdaq Stock Market on which the New Common Stock is listed at the time of sale. After such sale and upon the surrender of the stockholders' stock certificates, the transfer agent will pay to such holders of record their pro rata share of the net proceeds derived from the sale of the fractional interests.

 

Each stock certificate that, immediately prior to the Effective Time, represented shares of Old Common Stock shall, from and after the Effective Time, automatically and without the necessity of presenting the same for exchange, represent that number of whole shares of New Common Stock into which the shares of Old Common Stock represented by such certificate shall have been reclassified (as well as the right to receive cash in lieu of any factional shares of New Common Stock as set forth above), provided, however, that each holder of record of a certificate that represented shares of Old Common Stock shall receive, upon surrender of such certificate, a new certificate representing the number of whole shares of New Common Stock into which the shares of Old Common Stock represented by such certificate shall have been reclassified, as well as any cash in lieu of fractional shares of New Common Stock to which such holder may be entitled pursuant to the immediately preceding paragraph."

 

2. The foregoing amendment was duly adopted in accordance with the provisions of Section 242 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, MoSys, Inc. has caused this Certificate to be executed by its duly authorized officer on this day 14 of February, 2017.

MoSys Announces 1-for-10 Reverse Stock Split

 

 

SANTA CLARA, Calif., February 14, 2017 - MoSys, Inc. (NASDAQ: MOSY), a leader in semiconductor solutions that enable fast, intelligent data access for Cloud, network and communications systems, today announced that as of 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on February 15, 2017 it will effect a 1-for-10 reverse stock split of its outstanding common stock, which will be effective for trading purposes as of the commencement of trading on February 16, 2017.

 

The reverse stock split is intended to increase the per share trading price of the Company’s common stock to satisfy the $1.00 minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on The NASDAQ Capital Market (Nasdaq). Trading of the Company’s common stock on NASDAQ will continue, on a post-split basis, with the opening of the markets on February 16, 2017, under the existing trading symbol “MOSY” and under a new CUSIP number, 619718208.  The reverse stock split will reduce the number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding from approximately 66 million shares pre-reverse split to approximately 6.6 million shares post-reverse split.

 

The number of authorized shares of common stock will remain unchanged and the par value per share will be reduced to $0.001. As a result of the reverse stock split, every ten shares of the Company’s pre-reverse split common stock will be combined and reclassified into one share of common stock. Proportionate voting rights and other rights of common stock holders will not be affected by the reverse stock split. No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the reverse stock split; stockholders who would otherwise hold a fractional share of the Company’s common stock will receive cash in an amount equal to the product obtained by multiplying (i) the closing sale price of the common stock on the effective date of the reverse stock split as reported on Nasdaq, by (ii) the number of shares of the common stock held by the stockholder that would otherwise have been exchanged for the fractional share interest.

 

All stock options and restricted stock units outstanding and common stock reserved for issuance under the Company’s equity incentive plans immediately prior to the reverse stock split will be appropriately adjusted by dividing the number of affected shares of common stock by 10 and, as applicable, multiplying the exercise price by 10, as a result of the reverse stock split.

 

 

The Company’s transfer agent, Wells Fargo Shareowner Services, is acting as exchange agent for the reverse stock split and will send instructions to stockholders of record regarding the exchange of certificates for common stock for uncertificated shares of common stock. Stockholders owning shares via a broker or other nominee will have their positions automatically adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split, subject to the brokers' particular processes, and will not be required to take any action in connection with the reverse stock split.

 

Additional information about the reverse stock split can be found in the Company’s Definitive Proxy Statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on June 6, 2016, a copy of which is available at www.sec.gov or at the Company’s website at www.mosys.com. Additional information regarding this reverse stock split can be found in the Company’s Form 8-K filed with the SEC on February 14, 2017.
