This Schedule TO relates to the option of the holders of Vishay's Liquid Yield Option'TM' Notes due 2021 (Zero Coupon-Subordinated) (LYONs)* to require Vishay to purchase their LYONs on the purchase date of June 4, 2004. The option is exercisable upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the indenture referred to below, the company notice/prospectus, dated May 5, 2004, the LYONs and the related offer materials, copies of which are incorporated by reference as exhibits to this Schedule TO. The option will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on June 3, 2004, the day prior to the purchase date. The LYONs were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated as of June 4, 2001, between the Company and The Bank of New York, as trustee. The purchase price under the option is $602.77 per $1,000 principal amount at maturity of the LYONs. The purchase price will be paid in the form of shares of Vishay common stock, except as described below. Each holder of LYONs that exercises the option will receive a number of shares determined by dividing the total amount of cash the holder would have been entitled to receive had the purchase price been paid in cash by the market price of a share of common stock. Market price for these purposes means the average of the closing prices of Vishay common stock in New York Stock Exchange composite trading for the five trading day period ending on the third business day prior to the purchase date, which is the period from May 25, 2004 to and including June 1, 2004. The company's right to pay the purchase price in stock is subject to a number of conditions, as described in the indenture and the company notice/prospectus. If these conditions are not satisfied prior to the close of business on the purchase date, the company will be obligated to pay the entire purchase price in cash. Holders may specify whether in these circumstances they elect to withdraw exercise of the option with respect to some or all of their LYONs or to receive cash.
