Dear Jeff:

This letter sets forth the substance of the separation agreement (the “Agreement”) that Everspin Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) is offering to you.

1.     SEPARATION. Your last day of work with the Company and your employment termination date will be January 31st, 2020 (the “Separation Date”).

2.    ACCRUED SALARY.  On the Separation Date, the Company will pay you all accrued salary earned through the Separation Date minus the mandatory furlough dates, subject to standard payroll deductions and withholdings.

3.   SEVERANCE BENEFITS.  If you timely sign this Agreement, allow it to become effective, and remain in compliance with your legal and contractual obligations to the Company, then the Company will deem your termination from the Company to be a termination without Cause, as defined in your Executive Employment Agreement with the Company dated April 25th, 2014 (the “Employment Agreement”), and provide you with the following severance benefits in accordance with the terms of the Employment Agreement:

a.   Cash Severance. The Company will pay you six (6) months of your base salary (for a total of $146,016.00), which will be paid (less deductions and withholdings) over the course of six (6) months following the Separation Date in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll schedule.

b.   Bonus. Within thirty (30) days after the Separation Date of your employment the Company will pay your 2019 bonus. We will calculate the final numbers based on actual bonus achievement in January of 2020 and communicate the amount to you in writing.

c.    Paid COBRA. Provided that you timely elect continued coverage under COBRA, then the Company shall reimburse you for the COBRA premiums to continue your health insurance coverage (including coverage for eligible dependents, if applicable) through the period starting on the Separation Date and ending on July 31st, 2020. You

must timely pay your premiums, and then provide the Company with proof of same to obtain reimbursement for your COBRA premiums under this Section 3.c.

d.   Accelerated Vesting/Post Termination Option Exercise Period. During your employment, you were granted certain equity interests (the “Awards”). The Company will accelerate the vesting of the Awards (Stock Options and RSUs) such that, as of the Separation Date, you will be deemed vested in those Awards that would have vested in the six (6) months following the Separation Date had you remained employed.

You will also have 6 months from the date of your separation to exercise stock options and RSUs. Due to IRS regulations, certain options convert from ISO to NSO 90 days after employment terminates. Please check with your investment professional to understand the tax implications of the conversion of your options.

4.    OTHER COMPENSATION OR BENEFITS.  You acknowledge that, except as expressly provided in this Agreement, you will not receive any additional compensation, severance, or benefits after the Separation Date. You further expressly acknowledge and agree that the severance benefits being provided to you under this Agreement are in full satisfaction of any severance benefits you are eligible to receive under the Employment Agreement.

5.    EXPENSE REIMBURSEMENTS.  You agree that, within ten (10) days after the Separation Date, you will submit your final documented expense reimbursement statement reflecting all business expenses you incurred through the Separation Date, if any, for which you seek reimbursement. The Company will reimburse you for these expenses pursuant to its regular business practice.

6.     RETURN OF COMPANY PROPERTY. By the Separation Date, you agree to return to the Company all Company documents (and all copies thereof) and other Company property within your possession, custody or control, including, but not limited to, Company files, notes, drawings, records, business plans and forecasts, financial information, specifications, computer-recorded information, tangible property (including, but not limited to), credit cards, entry cards, identification badges, and keys; and, any materials of any kind that contain or embody any proprietary or confidential information of the Company (and all reproductions thereof).

7.     PROPRIETARY INFORMATION OBLIGATIONS. You acknowledge your continuing obligations under your Employee Proprietary Information and Inventions Assignment Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A.

8.    MUTUAL NON-DISPARAGEMENT.  You agree not to disparage the Company, its officers, directors, employees, shareholders, and agents, in any manner likely to be harmful to its or their business, business reputation or personal reputation; and the Company (through its officers and directors) agrees not to disparage you in any manner likely to be harmful to you or your business, business reputation or personal reputation; provided that you and the

Company will respond accurately and fully to any question, inquiry or request for information when required by legal process.

9.     NO  ADMISSIONS.  You understand and agree that the promises and payments in consideration of this Agreement shall not be construed to be an admission of any liability or obligation by the Company to you or to any other person, and that the Company makes no such admission.

10.   RELEASE OF CLAIMS.  In exchange for the consideration under this Agreement to which you would not otherwise be entitled, you hereby generally and completely release the Company and its directors, officers, employees, shareholders, partners, agents, attorneys, predecessors, successors, parent and subsidiary entities, insurers, affiliates, and assigns from any and all claims, liabilities and obligations, both known and unknown, that arise out of or are in any way related to events, acts, conduct, or omissions occurring at any time prior to and including the date you sign this Agreement.

While this Agreement does not limit your right to receive an award for information provided to the Securities and Exchange Commission, you understand and agree that, to maximum extent permitted by law, you are otherwise waiving any and all rights you may have to individual relief based on any claims that you have released and any rights you have waived by signing this Agreement.
