Exhibit 1.02
MoSys, Inc.
Conflicts Minerals Report
For the year ended December 31, 2013
This is the Conflict Minerals Report of MoSys, Inc. (MoSys or the Company) for calendar year 2013 in accordance with Rule 13p-1 (Rule 13p-1) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Rule 13p-1 was adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission to implement reporting and disclosure requirements related to Conflict Minerals, as directed by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010. Conflict Minerals are defined as columbite-tantalite (coltan), cassiterite, gold, wolframite, or their derivatives, which are limited to tin, gold, tantalum and tungsten (collectively, referred to as “3T&G”) that originate in the Democratic Republic of the Congo or an adjoining country (collectively, the “Covered Countries”).
MoSys is a provider of integrated circuits used by communications, networking and storage equipment manufacturers. As a fabless semiconductor company, MoSys does not purchase directly from smelters or refineries and must rely upon its manufacturing subcontractors to: i) identify whether 3T&G minerals are used in the manufacture of MoSys’ products, ii) identify the sources of 3T&G minerals used in the manufacture of MoSys products and iii) declare whether any of the 3T&G minerals used is a Conflict Mineral. MoSys has determined that at least one or more of the 3T&G minerals is necessary to produce one or more MoSys’ integrated circuit products. In particular, the Company believes some material used by our foundry to produce the silicon wafers for one or more products contains at least one of the 3T&G.
The Company has conducted a good faith reasonable country of origin inquiry regarding the Conflict Minerals contained in its products, which inquiry was designed to determine (a) whether any of the Conflict Minerals contained in its products originated in the Covered Countries and (b) whether any of the Conflict Minerals are from recycled or scrap sources. The Company also exercised due diligence on the chain of custody and source of the Conflict Minerals.
MoSys’ due diligence measures were based on the Electronic Industry Citizenship Coalition and Global e-Sustainability (“EICC/GeSI”) initiative with the smelters and refiners of conflict minerals that provide 3T&G to the Company’s suppliers. MoSys’ due diligence measures were comprised of:
· Conducting a supply-chain survey with direct suppliers of materials containing 3T&G using the EICC/GeSI Conflict Minerals Reporting Template to identify the smelters and refiners;
· Comparing the smelters and refiners identified in the supply-chain survey against the list of smelter facilities which have been identified as “conflict free” by programs such as the EICC/GeSI Conflict Free Smelter (“CFS”) program for 3T&G; and
· Reviewing our suppliers’ conflict minerals policies to ensure that they are encouraging their suppliers to not source from refiners, smelters and other suppliers that may use Conflict Minerals.
Based on the information provided by the Company’s suppliers and through the due diligence process, the Company believes that the facilities used to process the 3T&G minerals in products supplied to the Company include:

* The Company was unable to determine the countries of origin for the listed minerals.
During the reporting period for the year ending December 31, 2014, the Company intends to take the following steps to mitigate the risk that necessary Conflict Minerals will benefit armed groups and improve its due diligence: (a) encourage its supply chain to transition to compliant smelters and refiners; (b) include provisions from the Company’s Conflicts Minerals Policy in new supply contracts or renewals of existing contracts; and (c) work with suppliers to improve the content of their survey responses and provide written confirmations as to their due diligence process.
