Item 8.01 – Other Events

On April 29, 2005, Vishay announced that a memorandum of understanding (“MOU”) has been executed with the plaintiffs in the consolidated class action litigation in Delaware Chancery Court regarding Vishay’s pending exchange offer for the shares of Siliconix incorporated not owned by Vishay.  The MOU sets forth the terms and conditions under which the plaintiffs, Vishay, Siliconix, and Siliconix’s directors have agreed in principle to settle the action.  The settlement is subject to court approval.

The MOU was filed as Exhibit 99 to the Vishay Form 8-K filed on May 2, 2005.  Vishay is filing this Amendment to also include Exhibit A to the MOU, which lists certain disclosures made by Vishay in the Siliconix tender offer documents pursuant to the agreement in principle with the plaintiffs.

The plaintiff in the California action challenging the exchange offer is not a party to the MOU.  The California Superior court issued a stay of that action on April 26, 2005.
