Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

Master Separation Agreement

On June 22, 2010, Vishay Intertechnology, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), entered into a master separation and distribution agreement (the “Separation Agreement”) with Vishay Precision Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“VPG”), pursuant to which VPG will be legally and structurally separated from the Company. This separation will be accomplished through the distribution by the Company of all of the outstanding shares of VPG to the Company’s shareholders, as more particularly provided below (the “Spin-off”).

Under the terms of the Separation Agreement, (i) the Company and VPG will complete certain internal restructuring and capital allocation transactions; (ii) the Company and VPG will effect certain transfers of assets and assume certain liabilities such that substantially all of the assets and liabilities associated with the Company’s precision measurement and foil resistor businesses, including assets and equity interests of certain subsidiaries of the Company, will be transferred to and assumed by VPG; (iii) subject to certain exceptions, all agreements and commitments between VPG and the Company will terminate effective as of the date and time of the Spin-off; (iv) all intercompany accounts payable or accounts receivable for money borrowed and non-trade invoicing between the Company and VPG will be settled; (v) the Company will enter into an amended credit facility prior to the Spin-off so as to release certain VPG collateral from the existing credit facility; (vi) VPG will assume a portion of the exchangeable notes and warrants issued pursuant to agreements entered into by the Company on December 13, 2002, and the Company will issue amended exchangeable notes and warrants to reflect the portion of such instruments assumed by VPG; (vii) the Company will distribute all the issued and outstanding shares of (x) common stock, par value $0.10 per share, of VPG (the “VPG Common Stock”) as a pro rata dividend to its common stockholders and (y) Class B common stock, par value $0.10 per share, of VPG (the “VPG Class B Common Stock”) as a pro rata dividend to its Class B common stockholders; (viii) subject to certain exceptions, VPG and the Company will release each other and the other’s subsidiaries from all liabilities existing or alleged to exist on or before the Spin-off; (ix) effective as of the Spin-off, Dr. Lior Yahalomi and Mr. William Clancy will resign as directors of VPG; and (x) shortly following the Spin-off, VPG will prepare a calculation of its net cash as of the Spin-off, based on which either the Company or VPG will make a payment to the other to ensure that VPG’s net cash as of the Spin-off is as set forth in the Separation Agreement. The consummation of the Spin-off is subject to various conditions that must be satisfied or waived by the Company, including approval of the Spin-off by the board of directors of the Company, absence of legal restraints, receipt of any material consents and approvals, execution of certain identified ancillary agreements, and certain other conditions set forth in the Separation Agreement, many of which have already been satisfied. The Company has the sole and absolute discretion to determine the terms of, and whether to proceed with, the Spin-off and may terminate the Separation Agreement at any time prior to the Spin-off.

Employee Matters Agreement

In addition to, and concurrently with, the Separation Agreement, the Company and VPG entered into an Employee Matters Agreement (the “Employee Matters Agreement”). The Employee Matters Agreement provides for the transition of employee benefits arrangements and allocates responsibility for certain employee benefit matters on and after the Spin-off, including the treatment of existing welfare benefit plans, savings plans, equity-based plans and deferred compensation plans and VPG’s establishment of new plans.

Pursuant to the Employee Matters Agreement, prior to the Spin-off, to the extent not previously transferred, all employees of the Company that are expected to be employed primarily in VPG’s business will be transferred to VPG. Except as provided in the Employee Matters Agreement, the Company will retain all liabilities under the Company’s benefit plans, and VPG and the Company will reimburse each other for any liabilities satisfied or assumed by the other party that are the liabilities of the reimbursing party under the Employee Matter Agreement.

VPG has established or will establish retirement, pension, health and welfare plans similar to those maintained by the Company. Pursuant to the Employee Matters Agreement, the Company has caused or will cause the accounts and underlying assets and liabilities under the Company retirement and pension plans for our employees who were participating in these plans to be transferred to VPG’s corresponding plans, or rabbi trusts formed in connection with such plans, as applicable. VPG’s health and welfare plans waived and will waive preexisting condition and other limitations and exclusions, other than those that were in effect under the corresponding Company plan and will honor any deductibles, out-of-pocket maximums and co-payments incurred under the corresponding Company plan.

Under the Employee Matters Agreement, certain outstanding Company equity awards in the form of stock options, restricted stock units and phantom stock will be adjusted as a consequence of the Spin-off. These adjustments will be made in accordance with the formulas described in VPG’s information statement, filed as Exhibit 99.1 to VPG’s Form 10 Registration Statement, as amended, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 22, 2010 (the “Information Statement”). As described in greater detail in the Information Statement, VPG expects to replace or offer to replace outstanding Company equity awards held by its employees with similar awards issued pursuant to the Vishay Precision Group, Inc. 2010 Stock Incentive Program.

The foregoing descriptions of the Separation Agreement and Employee Matters Agreement are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Separation Agreement and the Employee Matters Agreement, which are filed as Exhibit 10.1 and Exhibit 10.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated herein by reference.

Item 8.01 Other Information

On June 22, 2010, the Company issued a press release confirming the timing and details of the spin-off of VPG. A copy of the press release is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

     WHEREAS, the Vishay Board has determined that it would be advisable and in the best interests of Vishay and its stockholders for Vishay to distribute, on a pro rata basis, (i) to the holders as of the Record Date (as defined below) of the issued and outstanding shares of Vishay’s common stock, par value $0.10 per share (the “Vishay common stock”), all of the issued and outstanding shares of VPG’s common stock, par value $0.10 per share (the “VPG common stock”), owned by Vishay as of the Distribution Date (as defined below) and (ii) to the holders as of the Record Date of the issued and outstanding shares of Vishay’s Class B common stock, par value $0.10 per share (the “Vishay Class B common stock”, together with the Vishay common stock, the “Vishay Stock”), all of the issued and outstanding shares of VPG’s Class B common stock, par value $0.10 per share (the “VPG Class B common stock”, together with VPG common stock, the “VPG Stock”), owned by Vishay as of the Distribution Date, in each case, as further described herein (collectively, the “Distribution”);

     WHEREAS, Vishay and VPG intend that the Separation (as defined below) and the Distribution will qualify for United States federal income tax purposes as transactions that are generally tax free under, among other provisions, Sections 355 and 368(a)(1)(D) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and hereby adopt this Agreement as a “plan of reorganization”; and

     WHEREAS, the parties intend in this Agreement to set forth the principal arrangements between them regarding the Separation and the Distribution and certain other agreements that will govern the relationship of Vishay and VPG following the Distribution.

Section 2.9Novation of the Assumed Liabilities.

          (a)Reasonable Best Efforts. Each of Vishay and VPG, at the request of the other and with the other’s reasonable best cooperation, shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain, or to cause to be obtained, any agreement, instrument, Consent, substitution or amendment required to novate or assign all rights and obligations under Contracts and other obligations or Liabilities of any nature whatsoever that constitute Assumed Liabilities, or to obtain in writing an unconditional release of all parties to such arrangements other than any member of the VPG Group, so that, in any such case, VPG and the other members of the VPG Group will be solely responsible for such Liabilities or, in the case of Shared Contracts, to novate the rights and obligations under each such Contract such that it is replaced with two separate Contracts, one of which provides for the rights and obligations of a member or members of the Vishay Group and the other of which provides for the rights and obligations of a member or members of the VPG Group; provided, however, that neither the Vishay Group nor the VPG Group shall be obligated to pay any consideration or assume any additional obligation therefor to any third party from whom any such Consent, substitution or amendment is requested. Each of Vishay and VPG, at the request of the other and with the other’s reasonable best cooperation, shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain, or to cause to be obtained, any agreement, instrument, Consent, substitution or amendment required to novate or assign all rights and obligations under Contracts and other obligations or Liabilities of any nature whatsoever that constitute Excluded Assumed Liabilities, or to obtain in writing an unconditional release of all parties to such arrangements other than any member of the Vishay Group, so that, in any such case, Vishay and the other members of the Vishay Group will solely be responsible for such Liabilities or, in the case of Shared Contracts, to novate the rights and obligations under each such Contract such that it is replaced with two separate Contracts, one of which provides for the rights and obligations of a member or members of the Vishay Group and the other which provides for the rights and obligations of a member or members of the VPG Group; provided, however, that neither the Vishay Group nor the VPG Group shall be obligated to pay any consideration or assume any additional obligation therefor to any third party from whom any such Consent, substitution or amendment is requested.

- 20 -

          (b)Inability to Obtain Novation. If Vishay or VPG is unable to obtain, or to cause to be obtained, any such required agreement, instrument, Consent, release, substitution or amendment with respect to any such Assumed Liability or Excluded Assumed Liability, as applicable, the applicable member of the Vishay Group or the VPG Group, as applicable, shall continue to be bound by such Contracts and other obligations and Liabilities and, unless not permitted by Applicable Law or the terms thereof (except to the extent expressly set forth in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement), Vishay, with respect to any Excluded Assumed Liability, and VPG, with respect to any Assumed Liability, shall, as agent or subcontractor for the other or such other Person, as the case may be, pay, perform and discharge fully, or cause to be paid, transferred or discharged all the obligations or other Liabilities of any member of the other’s Group thereunder from and after the Distribution Date or, in the case of a Shared Contract, such obligations or other Liabilities as pertain to the member or members of its own Group. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any such Liability shall still be considered an Assumed Liability or Excluded Assumed Liability, as applicable; provided, however, that neither Vishay nor VPG shall (nor shall either permit any member of its respective Group to), amend, renew, change the term of, modify the obligations under, or transfer to a third Person, any such Contract or other obligation or other Liability without the written consent of the other. Each of Vishay and VPG shall each use reasonable best efforts to provide prompt notice to the other of any request they receive from the counterparty to any Contract for any such amendment, renewal, change, modification or transfer. Vishay, with respect to any Assumed Liability and VPG, with respect to any Excluded Assumed Liability, shall, without further consideration, pay and remit, or cause to be paid or remitted, to the other or its appropriate Subsidiary promptly all money, rights and other consideration received by it or any member of its Group in respect of such performance (unless any such consideration is, with respect to consideration received by Vishay or any member of the Vishay Group, an Excluded Asset, or, with respect to consideration received by VPG or any member of the VPG Group, a Separated Asset). If and when any such agreement, instrument, Consent, release, substitution or amendment shall be obtained or such Contract or other obligations and Liabilities shall otherwise become assignable or able to be novated, Vishay, for any Assumed Liability, and VPG, for any Excluded Assumed Liability, shall thereafter assign, or cause to be assigned, all of its rights, obligations and other Liabilities thereunder or any rights or obligations of any member of its respective Group to the other without payment of further consideration and the other shall, without the payment of any further consideration, assume such rights, obligations and Liabilities.

     Section 2.10Documents Relating to Transfers of the Separated Assets and Assumption of the Assumed Liabilities. In furtherance of the Separation and the Distribution, including as contemplated by the Separation Transactions, (i) Vishay shall execute and deliver, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to execute and deliver, such bills of sale, stock powers, certificates of title, assignments of Contracts and other instruments of transfer, conveyance and assignment as and to the extent necessary to evidence the transfer, conveyance and assignment of all of Vishay’s and its Subsidiaries’ right, title and interest in and to the Separated Assets to VPG or its Subsidiaries and (ii) VPG shall execute and deliver, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to execute and deliver, to Vishay and its Subsidiaries such assumptions of Contracts and other instruments of assumption as and to the extent necessary to evidence the valid and effective assumption of the Assumed Liabilities by VPG.

The terms and provisions of Sections 2.7, 2.8, 2.10, 2.12, 2.13 and 4.2 as such terms and provisions relate to the contribution, assignment, transfer, conveyance or delivery of assets from Vishay or a member of the Vishay Group to VPG or a member of the VPG Group shall apply to any contribution, assignment, transfer, conveyance or delivery of assets contemplated by this Section 2.16, mutatismutandis.

Section 2.17Net Cash.

          (a)No later than fifteen (15) Business Days following the Distribution Date, VPG shall determine the VPG Net Cash as of the opening of business on the Distribution Date (the “Actual VPG Net Cash”). As soon as reasonably practicable, but in no event later than five (5) Business Days after making such determination, VPG shall prepare and deliver to Vishay a calculation of the VPG Net Cash, together with reasonably detailed supporting information (the “VPG Net Cash Statement”).

- 23 -

          (b)Thereafter, VPG will provide Vishay and its accountants with access to the records and employees of VPG, to the extent reasonably related to Vishay’s evaluation of the VPG Net Cash Statement, the calculation of the VPG Net Cash or the resolution of any dispute with respect thereto. Within ten (10) Business Days after Vishay’s receipt of the VPG Net Cash Statement, Vishay shall notify VPG in writing as to whether Vishay agrees or disagrees with the VPG Net Cash Statement, which notice, in the case of a disagreement, shall set forth in reasonable detail the particulars of such disagreement. In the event that Vishay does not provide a notice of disagreement within such ten (10) Business Day period, then Vishay shall be deemed to have accepted the calculations and the amounts set forth in the VPG Net Cash Statement delivered by VPG, which shall be final, binding and conclusive for all purposes hereunder. If any notice of disagreement is timely provided in accordance with this Section 2.17, VPG and Vishay shall each use commercially reasonable efforts for a period of ten (10) Business Days thereafter (or such longer period as they may mutually agree) to resolve any disagreements with respect to the calculations in the VPG Net Cash Statement. If, at the end of such period, VPG and Vishay are unable to resolve any disagreements as to items in the VPG Net Cash Statement, then the Parties shall engage KPMG LLP (the “Auditor”) to resolve any remaining disagreements. The Auditor shall be charged with determining as promptly as practicable, but in any event within thirty (30) days after the date on which such dispute is referred to the Auditor, whether the Actual VPG Net Cash as set forth in the VPG Net Cash Statement was prepared in accordance with this Agreement whether and to what extent the Actual VPG Net Cash requires adjustment. The fees and expenses of the Auditor shall be shared by VPG and Vishay in inverse proportion to the relative amounts of the disputed amounts determined in favor of VPG and Vishay, respectively. The determination of the Auditor shall be final, binding and conclusive for all purposes hereunder. The date on which the Actual VPG Net Cash is finally determined in accordance with this Section 2.17 is referred to as the “Determination Date.”

          (c)If the Actual VPG Net Cash, as determined in accordance with this Section 2.17, exceeds $71,500,000, VPG shall make a payment to Vishay in the amount of the excess, which for all purposes shall be deemed a dividend to Vishay from VPG made immediately prior to the Separation. If the Actual VPG Net Cash is less than $58,500,000, Vishay shall make a payment to VPG in the amount of the difference, which for all purposes shall be deemed a capital contribution by Vishay to VPG made immediately prior to the Separation. Such payment by VPG or Vishay, as the case may be, shall be made no later than five (5) Business Days after the Determination Date by wire transfer of immediately available funds.

          (b)Upon receipt by Vishay or VPG, or any of the members of the respective Groups, as the case may be, of any subpoena, discovery or other request from any third party that actually or arguably calls for the production or disclosure of Privileged Information of the other or if Vishay or VPG, or any of members of their respective Groups, as the case may be, obtains knowledge that any current or former employee of Vishay or VPG, as the case may be, receives any subpoena, discovery or other request from any third party that actually or arguably calls for the production or disclosure of Privileged Information of the other, Vishay or VPG, as the case may be, shall promptly notify the other of the existence of the request and shall provide the other a reasonable opportunity to review the Information and to assert any rights it may have under this Section 4.6 or otherwise to prevent the production or disclosure of Privileged Information. Vishay or VPG, as the case may be, will not, and will cause the members of their respective Groups to not, produce or disclose to any third party any of the other’s Privileged Information under this Section 4.6 unless (i) the non-disclosing party has provided its express written consent to such production or disclosure or (ii) a court of competent jurisdiction has entered an order not subject to interlocutory appeal or review (or for which the period for appeal or review has lapsed) finding that the Information is not entitled to protection from disclosure under any applicable privilege, doctrine or rule, in which case, such Information shall be subject to Section 4.5.

          (c)Vishay’s transfer of books and records pertaining to the MGF Business and other Information to VPG, Vishay’s agreement to permit VPG to obtain Information existing prior to the Distribution, VPG’s transfer of books and records pertaining to the Vishay Business, if any, and other Information to Vishay and VPG’s agreement to permit Vishay to obtain Information existing prior to the Distribution are made in reliance on Vishay’s and VPG’s respective agreements, as set forth in Section 4.5 and this Section 4.6, to maintain the confidentiality of such Information and to take the steps provided herein for the preservation of all Privileges that may belong to or be asserted by Vishay or VPG, as the case may be.

Nothing in this Agreement shall operate to reduce, minimize or condition the rights granted to Vishay and VPG in, or the obligations imposed upon Vishay and VPG by, this Section 4.6.

If it is determined that the know-how or other technical information is the exclusive property of one of the parties, the other party may request a license to utilize such information for development of or incorporation into its products and services or in other aspects of its business. In such case, the other party shall in good faith consider the request for a license, including the financial arrangements and other terms that the first party proposes for such a license. Nothing, however, shall require a party to enter into such a license or to act against its commercial interests as determined by such party. For the purpose of the discussions contemplated by this Section 4.7, each party shall at all times designate by notice to the other party one or more individuals at a level equal to or above divisional P&L leader who shall be available to engage in such discussions at the request of the other party.

     Section 5.4Tax Indemnification. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, indemnification for matters subject to the Tax Matters Agreement shall be governed by the terms, provisions and procedures of the Tax Matters Agreement and not by this Article V.

- 40 -

     Section 5.5Indemnification Obligations Net of Insurance Proceeds and OtherAmounts.

          (a)The parties intend that any Liability subject to indemnification or reimbursement pursuant to this Article V or Article VI will be net of Insurance Proceeds that actually reduce the amount of the Liability. Accordingly, the amount which any party (an “Indemnifying Party”) is required to pay to any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder (an “Indemnified Party”) will be reduced by any Insurance Proceeds theretofore actually received, realized or recovered by or on behalf of the Indemnified Party in reduction of the related Liability. If an Indemnified Party receives a payment (an “Indemnity Payment”) required by this Agreement from an Indemnifying Party in respect of any Liability and subsequently receives Insurance Proceeds that actually reduce the amount of the Liability, then the Indemnified Party will pay to the Indemnifying Party an amount equal to the excess of the Indemnity Payment received over the amount of the Indemnity Payment that would have been due if the Insurance Proceeds had been received, realized or recovered before the Indemnity Payment was made.

          (b)In the case of any Shared Contingent Liability, any Insurance Proceeds actually received, realized or recovered by any party in respect of the Shared Contingent Liability will be shared among the parties in such manner as may be necessary so that the obligations of the parties for such Shared Contingent Liability, net of such Insurance Proceeds, will remain in proportion to their respective Shared Percentages, regardless of which party or parties may actually receive, realize or recover such Insurance Proceeds.

          (c)An insurer who would otherwise be obligated to pay any claim shall not be relieved of the responsibility with respect thereto or, solely by virtue of the indemnification provisions hereof, have any subrogation rights with respect thereto, it being expressly understood and agreed that no insurer or any other third party shall be entitled to a “wind-fall” ( i.e., a benefit they would not be entitled to receive in the absence of the indemnification provisions) by virtue of the indemnification provisions hereof. Nothing contained in this Agreement or in any Ancillary Agreement shall obligate any member of any Group to seek to collect or recover any Insurance Proceeds; provided, that such member is capable of fulfilling and meeting any of its obligations as an Indemnifying Party under this Agreement (including, but not limited to the ability to make a full payment on any indemnification obligation).

Section 5.6Procedures for Indemnification of Third Party Claims.

          (a)If an Indemnified Party shall receive notice or otherwise learn of the assertion by a Person (including any Governmental Authority) who is not a member of the Vishay Group or the VPG Group of any claim or of the commencement by any such Person of any Action (collectively, a “Third Party Claim”) with respect to which an Indemnifying Party may be obligated to provide indemnification to such Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 5.2 or Section 5.3 or any other section of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, such Indemnified Party shall give such Indemnifying Party written notice thereof within twenty (20) days after becoming aware of such Third Party Claim. Any such notice shall describe the Third Party Claim in reasonable detail. If any Person shall receive notice or otherwise learn of the assertion of a Third Party Claim which may reasonably be determined to be a Shared Contingent Liability, such Person shall give the other party to this Agreement written notice thereof within twenty (20) days after becoming aware of such Third Party Claim. Any such notice shall describe the Third Party Claim in reasonable detail. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure of any Indemnified Party or other Person to give notice as provided in this Section 5.6(a) shall not relieve the related Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Article V, except to the extent that such Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by such failure to give notice.

- 41 -

          (b)If the Indemnifying Party receiving any notice pursuant to Section 5.6(a) or the Indemnified Party believes that the Third Party Claim is or may be a Shared Contingent Liability, such party may make a Determination Request with respect thereto. Vishay shall be entitled (but not obligated) to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim as if it were the Indemnifying Party hereunder until a determination on whether such Third Party Claim is a Shared Contingent Liability. In any such event, Vishay shall be entitled to reimbursement of all the costs and expenses of such defense once a final determination or acknowledgment is made as to the status of the Third Party Claim; provided, that, if such Third Party Claim is determined to be a Shared Contingent Liability, such costs and expenses shall be shared as provided in Section 5.6(c). If it is determined by the parties or the Contingent Claim Committee that the Third Party Claim is a Shared Contingent Liability, the Indemnifying Party determined to have a majority of the Shared Percentage of such Shared Contingent Liability shall assume the defense of such Third Party Claim; provided, that such Indemnifying Party is solvent. If the Indemnifying Party with a majority of the Shared Contingent Liability is insolvent, the Indemnifying Party with less than a majority of the Shared Contingent Liability shall be entitled (but not obligated) to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim.

          (c)The costs and expenses of assuming the defense of any Third Party Claim that is a Shared Contingent Liability (subject to Section 5.6(b)), and/or seeking to settle or compromise (subject to Section 5.6(g)) shall be included in the calculation of the amount of the applicable Shared Contingent Liability in determining the reimbursement obligations of the other parties with respect thereto pursuant to Section 6.3. Any Indemnified Party in respect of a Shared Contingent Liability shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in (but not control) the defense, compromise, or settlement thereof, but all fees and expenses of such counsel shall be the expense of such Indemnified Party.

          (d)Other than in the case of a Shared Contingent Liability, an Indemnifying Party may elect to defend (and, unless the Indemnifying Party has specified any reservations or exceptions, to seek to settle or compromise), at such Indemnifying Party’s own expense and by such Indemnifying Party’s own counsel, any Third Party Claim. Within thirty (30) days after the receipt of notice from an Indemnified Party in accordance with Section 5.6(a) (or sooner, if the nature of such Third Party Claim so requires), the Indemnifying Party shall notify the Indemnified Party of its election whether the Indemnifying Party will assume responsibility for defending such Third Party Claim, which election shall specify any reservations or exceptions. After notice from an Indemnifying Party to an Indemnified Party of its election to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim, such Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in (but not control) the defense, compromise, or settlement thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be the expense of such Indemnified Party.

          (e)Other than in the case of a Shared Contingent Liability, if an Indemnifying Party elects not to assume responsibility for defending a Third Party Claim, or fails to notify an Indemnified Party of its election as provided in Section 5.6(d), such Indemnified Party may defend such Third Party Claim at the cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party.

- 42 -

          (f)Unless the Indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense of the Third Party Claim in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, no Indemnified Party may settle or compromise any Third Party Claim that is not a Shared Contingent Liability without the consent of the Indemnifying Party. No Indemnified Party may settle or compromise any Third Party Claim that is a Shared Contingent Liability without the consent of the Indemnifying Party that is entitled to or has assumed the defense of such Third Party Claim.

          (g)In the case of a Third Party Claim that is not a Shared Contingent Liability, no Indemnifying Party shall consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement of the Third Party Claim without the consent of the Indemnified Party if the effect thereof is to permit any injunction, declaratory judgment, other order or other nonmonetary relief to be entered, directly or indirectly against any Indemnified Party. In the case of a Third Party Claim that is a Shared Contingent Liability, the Indemnifying Party that has assumed the defense of such Third Party Claim shall not consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement of the Third Party Claim without the consent of the Indemnified Party if the effect thereof is to permit any injunction, declaratory judgment, other order or other nonmonetary relief to be entered, directly or indirectly, against any Indemnified Party; provided, however, the Indemnifying Party shall not need to obtain the consent of the Indemnified Party if the Indemnified Party is insolvent.

     Section 5.7Procedures for Indemnification of Direct Claims. Any claim for indemnification made directly by the Indemnified Party against the Indemnifying Party that does not result from a Third Party Claim shall be asserted by written notice from the Indemnified Party to the Indemnifying Party specifically claiming indemnification hereunder. Such Indemnifying Party shall have a period of forty-five (45) days after the receipt of such notice within which to respond thereto. If such Indemnifying Party does not respond within such forty-five (45) day period, such Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have accepted responsibility to make payment and shall have no further right to contest the validity of such claim. If such Indemnifying Party does respond within such forty-five (45) day period and rejects such claim in whole or in part, such Indemnified Party shall be free to pursue resolution as provided in Article VIII.

     Section 5.8Payments. The Indemnifying Party shall pay all amounts payable pursuant to this Article V by wire transfer of immediately available funds, promptly following receipt from an Indemnified Party of a statement therefor, together with all accompanying reasonably detailed backup documentation, for a Liability that is the subject of indemnification hereunder, unless the Indemnifying Party in good faith disputes the Liability, in which event it shall so notify the Indemnified Party. In any event, the Indemnifying Party shall pay to the Indemnified Party, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, the amount of any Liability for which it is liable hereunder no later than ten (10) Business Days following any final determination of such Liability and the Indemnifying Party’s liability therefor. A “final determination” shall exist when (a) the parties to the dispute have reached an agreement in writing, (b) a court of competent jurisdiction shall have entered a final and non-appealable order

- 43 -

or judgment or (c) an arbitration or like panel shall have rendered a final non-appealable determination with respect to disputes the parties have agreed to submit thereto.

     Section 5.9Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Article V shall, for any reason, be unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an Indemnified Party hereunder in respect of any Liability, then the Indemnifying Party shall, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Liability, in such proportion as shall be sufficient to place the Indemnified Party in the same position as if such Indemnified Party were indemnified hereunder, the parties intending that their respective contributions hereunder be as close as possible to the indemnification under Section 5.2 and Section 5.3. If the contribution provided for in the previous sentence shall, for any reason, be unavailable or insufficient to put the Indemnified Party in the same position as if it were indemnified under Section 5.2 or Section 5.3, as the case may be, then the Indemnifying Party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Liability, in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by and the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party on the one hand and the Indemnified Party on the other hand with respect to the matter giving rise to the Liability.

     Section 5.10Remedies Cumulative. The rights and remedies provided in this Article V shall be cumulative and, subject to the provisions of Article VIII, shall not preclude assertion by any Indemnified Party of any other rights or the seeking of any and all other remedies against any Indemnifying Party.

     Section 5.11Survival of Indemnities. The rights and obligations of each of Vishay and VPG and their respective Indemnified Parties under this Article V shall survive the distribution, sale or other transfer by any party of any Assets or the delegation or assignment by it of any Liabilities.

ARTICLE VI

CONTINGENT GAINS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

Section 6.1Contingent Gains.

          (a)Each of Vishay and VPG shall have the sole and exclusive right to any benefit received with respect to any Exclusive Vishay Contingent Gain and any Exclusive VPG Contingent Gain, respectively. Each of Vishay and VPG shall have the sole and exclusive authority to commence, prosecute, settle, manage, control, conduct, waive, forego, release, discharge, forgive and otherwise determine all matters whatsoever with respect to any such Exclusive Vishay Contingent Gain or Exclusive VPG Contingent Gain, as the case may be.

- 44 -

          (b)Any benefit that may be received from any Shared Contingent Gain shall be shared between Vishay and VPG in proportion to the Shared Vishay Percentage and the Shared VPG Percentage, respectively, and shall be paid in accordance with Section 6.4. If it is determined by the parties or the Contingent Claim Committee that a Contingent Gain is a Shared Contingent Gain, the party determined to have a majority of the Shared Percentage of such Shared Contingent Gain shall have the sole and exclusive authority to commence, prosecute, settle, manage, control, conduct, waive, forgo, release, discharge, forgive and otherwise determine all matters whatsoever with respect to such Shared Contingent Gain. The party with a minority interest in such Shared Contingent Gain shall not take, or permit any member of its Group to take, any action (including commencing any Action) that would interfere with such rights and powers of the other party. The party with a majority of the Shared Percentage of such Shared Contingent Gain shall use its reasonable best efforts to notify the other party in the event that it commences an Action with respect to a Shared Contingent Gain; provided, that the failure to provide such notice shall not give rise to any rights on the part of the other party against such party or affect any other provision of this Section 6.1. The party with a majority of the Shared Percentage of such Shared Contingent Gain may elect not to pursue any Shared Contingent Gain for any reason whatsoever (including a different assessment of the merits of any Action, claim or right than the other party or any business reasons that are in the best interests of such party or a member of such party’s Group, without regard to the best interests of any member of the other Group) and no member of the Group with a majority interest in such Shared Contingent Gain shall have any liability to any Person (including any member of the other Group) as a result of any such determination.

          (c)In the event of any dispute as to whether any claim or right is a Contingent Gain or whether any Contingent Gain is a Shared Contingent Gain, an Exclusive Vishay Contingent Gain or an Exclusive VPG Contingent Gain, Vishay may, but shall not be obligated to, commence prosecution or other assertion of such claim or right pending resolution of such dispute. In the event that Vishay commences any such prosecution or assertion and, upon resolution of the dispute, it is determined hereunder that VPG has the exclusive right to such claim or right, Vishay shall, promptly upon the request of VPG, discontinue the prosecution or assertion of such right or claim and transfer the control thereof to VPG. In such event, VPG will reimburse Vishay for all costs and expenses, reasonably incurred prior to resolution of such dispute in the prosecution or assertion of such claim or right.

     Section 6.2Exclusive Contingent Liabilities. Each Exclusive Contingent Liability shall constitute a Liability for which indemnification is provided by Vishay or VPG, as the case may be, pursuant to Article V and shall be subject to the procedures set forth in Article V with respect thereto.

     Section 6.3Shared Contingent Liabilities.

          (a)As set forth in Section 5.6(c) and subject to Section 5.6(g), any Third Party Claim that is a Shared Contingent Liability, and the costs and expenses thereof, shall be included in the calculation of the amount of the applicable Shared Contingent Liability in determining the reimbursement obligations of the other parties with respect thereto pursuant to this Section 6.3.

          (b)Each of Vishay and VPG shall be responsible for its Shared Percentage of any Shared Contingent Liability. It shall not be a defense to any obligation by any party to pay any amount in respect of any Shared Contingent Liability that such party was not consulted in the defense thereof, that such party’s views or opinions as to the conduct of such defense were not accepted or adopted, that such party does not approve of the quality or manner of the defense thereof or that such Shared Contingent Liability was incurred by reason of a settlement rather than by a judgment or other determination of liability (even if, subject to Section 5.6(g), such settlement was effected without the consent or over the objection of such party).

- 45 -

     Section 6.4Payments. Any amount owed in respect of (i) any Shared Contingent Liabilities (including reimbursement for the cost or expense of defense of any Third Party Claim that is a Shared Contingent Liability), or (ii) any Shared Contingent Gains (including reimbursement for the costs or expenses to commence, prosecute or settle matters with respect to a Shared Contingent Gain), pursuant to this Article VI shall be remitted promptly after the party entitled to such amount provides an invoice (including reasonable supporting Information with respect thereto) to the party owing such amount.

     Section 6.5Procedures to Determine Status of Contingent Liability or Contingent Gain.

          (a)With respect to any other matters not set forth on Schedules to this Agreement (regardless of whether such matters are currently pending but not set forth on such Schedules or are asserted or filed hereafter), Vishay and VPG will form the Contingent Claim Committee for (x) the purpose of resolving whether:

(i)any claim or right is a Contingent Gain; 

     (ii)any Contingent Gain is a Shared Contingent Gain, an Exclusive Vishay Contingent Gain or an Exclusive VPG Contingent Gain;

(iii)any Liability is a Contingent Liability; or 

     (iv)any Contingent Liability is a Shared Contingent Liability, an Exclusive Vishay Contingent Liability or an Exclusive VPG Contingent Liability.

and (y) for the purpose of determining the Shared VPG Percentage and the Shared Vishay Percentage in connection with Shared Contingent Gains and Shared Contingent Liabilities.

          (b)(i) The parties shall refer any Shared Contingent Gain or Shared Contingent Liability to the Contingent Claim Committee to determine the Shared VPG Percentage and the Shared Vishay Percentage in connection with such Shared Contingent Gain or Shared Contingent Liability and (ii) any of the parties may refer any potential Contingent Gains or Contingent Liabilities to the Contingent Claim Committee for resolution as described in Section 6.5(a) (any such request described in clause (i) or clause (ii), a “Determination Request”). If the Contingent Claim Committee reaches a determination (which shall be made within thirty (30) days of such referral on a matter submitted to the Contingent Claim Committee by any of the parties), then that determination shall be binding on all of the parties and their respective successors and assigns. In the event that the Contingent Claim Committee cannot reach a determination as to (i) the appropriate allocation of Contingent Gains or Contingent Liabilities between the parties in connection with Shared Contingent Gains or Shared Contingent Liabilities, respectively, or (ii) as to the nature or status of any such Contingent Liabilities or Contingent Gains, within thirty (30) days after such referral, then the issue will be submitted to the respective Senior Party Representative of Vishay and VPG for determination. If the Senior Party Representatives cannot reach a determination, then the procedures set forth in Article VIII of this Agreement shall govern.

- 46 -

     Section 6.6Certain Case Allocation Matters. The parties agree that if any Action not set forth on Schedules to this Agreement involves separate and distinct claims that, if not joined in a single Action, would constitute separate Exclusive Contingent Liabilities of two or more parties, they will use their reasonable best efforts to segregate such separate and distinct claims so that the Liabilities associated with each such claim (including all costs and expenses) shall be treated as Exclusive Contingent Liabilities of the appropriate party and so that each party shall have the rights and obligations with respect to each such claim (including pursuant to Article V) as would have been applicable had such claims been commenced as separate Actions. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, this Section 6.6 shall not apply to any separate and distinct claim that is de minimis or frivolous in nature.

ARTICLE VII

INSURANCE

     Section 7.1Insurance Matters Generally.

          (a)VPG does hereby, for itself and each other member of the VPG Group, agree that no member of the Vishay Group or any Vishay Indemnified Party shall have any liability whatsoever as a result of the insurance policies and practices of Vishay and its Affiliates as in effect at any time prior to the Effective Time, including as a result of the level or scope of any such insurance, the creditworthiness of any insurance carrier, the terms and conditions of any policy, the adequacy or timeliness of any notice to any insurance carrier with respect to any claim or potential claim, the bankruptcy or insolvency of any insurance carrier or otherwise.

          (b)The Separated Assets shall include any and all Insurance Policies which are owned or maintained by or on behalf of VPG or any member of the VPG Group or which are owned or maintained by or on behalf of Vishay or any member of the Vishay Group and which relate exclusively to the MGF Business and which are by their terms assignable to VPG or any member of the VPG Group. All other Insurance Policies shall be subject to the provisions of Section 7.2.

Section 7.2Shared Insurance Policies.

          (a)Vishay agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to cause the interest and rights of VPG and the other members of the VPG Group as of the Effective Time as insureds, additional named insureds or beneficiaries or in any other capacity under occurrence-based Insurance Policies of Vishay or any other member of the Vishay Group in respect of periods prior to the Effective Time (and under claims-made policies and programs to the extent a claim has been submitted prior to the Effective Time) to survive the Effective Time for the period for which such interests and rights would have survived without regard to the transactions contemplated hereby to the extent permitted by such Insurance Policies; provided however that Vishay shall be required to maintain tail or extended coverage for the benefit of the VPG Group with respect to certain Insurance Policies in effect prior to the Effective Time as described in Schedule 1.4 and Schedule 2.5(b)(v). For the avoidance of doubt, except as otherwise provided in Schedule 1.4 or Schedule 2.5(b)(v), Vishay shall not be required to maintain any tail or extended coverage for the benefit of the VPG Group with respect to Insurance Policies in effect prior to the Effective Time.

- 47 -

          (b)Following the Effective Time, Vishay, at its sole option, cost and expense, shall continue to administer the Insurance Policies, including on behalf of VPG and the other members of the VPG Group. Vishay’s retention of the administrative responsibilities for the Insurance Policies shall not relieve VPG or any member of the VPG Group submitting any insurance claim of the responsibility to report such claim accurately, completely and in a timely manner or limit the authority of VPG or such other member of the VPG Group to settle any such insurance claim within the limits of the relevant Insurance Policy. Vishay may discharge its administrative responsibilities under this Section 7.2(b) by contracting for the provision of services by one or more independent parties.

          (c)If any insurer does not promptly acknowledge insurance coverage in connection with any insured Assumed Liabilities, then, with respect to such insured Assumed Liabilities, VPG, on an as-incurred basis (i) shall advance all amounts expended by Vishay for or with respect to such insured Assumed Liabilities, including all costs and expenses in connection with the defense and settlement and in satisfaction of any judgment incurred, and amounts sufficient to cover any Liabilities required to be paid by Vishay or any member of the Vishay Group, and (ii) shall pay all costs incurred in connection with pursuing and recovering Insurance Proceeds with respect to the insured Assumed Liabilities, but, in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii) above, only to the extent Vishay is taking action in respect therewith at the request of VPG, which shall be entitled to direct all such defense, settlement and recovery efforts, subject, however to the provisions of Article V. Any Insurance Proceeds received by Vishay or any other member of the Vishay Group after the Effective Time under such policies and programs in respect of VPG and the other members of the VPG Group shall be for the benefit of and shall promptly be paid over to VPG and the other members of the VPG Group. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, neither Vishay nor any member of the Vishay Group shall be liable for the satisfaction of any claim by VPG or any member of the VPG Group out of any self-insurance program maintained by a member of the Vishay Group to the extent relating to an Assumed Liability.

          (d)Except as otherwise provided in Schedule 1.4 or Schedule 2.5(b)(v), Vishay and VPG agree that the aggregate amount of any deductible paid shall be borne by the parties in the same proportion as the Insurance Proceeds received by each such party bears to the total Insurance Proceeds received under the applicable Insurance Policy, and any party that has paid more than its allocable share of the deductible shall be entitled to receive from the other party an amount such that each party will only bear its allocable share.

          (e)This Agreement is not intended as an attempted assignment of any policy of insurance or as a contract of insurance and shall not be construed to waive any right or remedy of any member of the Vishay Group in respect of any insurance policy or any other contract or policy of insurance.

- 48 -

          (f)The parties agree to use their reasonable best efforts to cooperate with respect to the insurance matters contemplated by this Agreement. In the event that both parties have insurance claims relating to the same occurrence, the parties shall jointly defend and waive any conflict necessary to the conduct of a joint defense.

          (g)Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to restrict any member of the VPG Group from acquiring at its own expense any other insurance policy in respect of any Liabilities or covering any period.

     Section 7.3Insurance for VPG Officers & Directors. Vishay shall use its reasonable best efforts to provide insurance to those individuals who at and immediately following the Effective Time are officers, directors, employees, fiduciaries or agents of VPG and who immediately prior to the Effective Time were insured persons under the current Vishay Directors & Officers Liability Insurance Policy (such individuals, the “VPG Officers & Directors”) with material terms and conditions no less favorable to the VPG Officers & Directors than is available to the officers, directors, employees, fiduciaries or agents of Vishay under the Vishay Directors & Officers Liability Insurance Policy in effect at such time, except that such insurance shall exclude coverage for wrongful acts, errors or omissions occurring after the Distribution Date.

     Section 7.4Director and Officer Indemnification. For a period of six (6) years from the Effective Time, the provisions of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Amended and Restated By-laws of Vishay to the extent providing for indemnification of persons who were officers, directors, employees, fiduciaries or agents immediately prior to the Effective Time shall not be amended in any manner that would adversely affect the rights of persons who at the Effective Time were directors, officers, employees, fiduciaries or agents of any member of the VPG Group, unless such modification shall be required by, and then only to the minimum extent required by, Applicable Law.

     Section 7.5VPG Insurance. Effective as of the Distribution Date, except as expressly provided herein, Vishay shall not be obligated to maintain insurance coverage with respect to the business, affairs, operations, assets or liabilities of the VPG Group, and VPG shall indemnify and hold the Vishay Group harmless from any Liabilities arising by reason of the failure of the VPG Group to maintain such insurance.

ARTICLE VIII

- 49 -

     Section 8.2Dispute Resolution; Mediation.

          (a)Either party may commence the dispute resolution process of this Section 8.2 by giving the other party written notice (a “Dispute Notice”) of any controversy, claim or dispute of whatever nature arising out of or relating to or in connection with this Agreement, any Ancillary Agreement or the breach, termination, enforceability or validity thereof (a “Dispute”) which has not been resolved in the normal course of business or as provided in the relevant Ancillary Agreement. The parties shall attempt in good faith to resolve any Dispute by negotiation between executives of each party (“Senior Party Representatives”) who have authority to settle the Dispute and, unless discussions between the parties are already at a senior management level, who are at a higher level of management than the Persons who have direct responsibility for the administration of this Agreement or the relevant Ancillary Agreement. Within fifteen (15) days after delivery of the Dispute Notice, the receiving party shall submit to the other a written response (the “Response”). The Dispute Notice and the Response shall include (i) a statement setting forth the position of the party giving such notice and a summary of arguments supporting such position and (ii) the name and title of such party’s Senior Party Representative and any other Persons who will accompany the Senior Party Representative at the meeting at which the parties will attempt to settle the Dispute. Within thirty (30) days after the delivery of the Dispute Notice, the Senior Party Representatives of both parties shall meet at a mutually acceptable time and place, and thereafter as often as they reasonably deem necessary, to attempt to resolve the Dispute. The parties shall cooperate in good faith with respect to any reasonable requests for exchanges of Information regarding the Dispute or a Response thereto.

          (b)If the Dispute has not been resolved within sixty (60) days after delivery of the Dispute Notice, or if the parties fail to meet within thirty (30) days after delivery of the Dispute Notice as hereinabove provided, the parties shall make a good faith attempt to settle the Dispute by mediation pursuant to the provisions of this Section 8.2 before resorting to arbitration contemplated by Section 8.3 or any other dispute resolution procedure that may be agreed by the parties.

          (c)All negotiations, conferences and discussions pursuant to this Section 8.2 shall be confidential and shall be treated as compromise and settlement negotiations. Nothing said or disclosed, nor any document produced, in the course of such negotiations, conferences and discussions that is not otherwise independently discoverable shall be offered or received as evidence or used for impeachment or for any other purpose in any current or future arbitration.

          (d)Unless the parties agree otherwise, the mediation shall be conducted in accordance with the CPR Institute for Dispute Resolution Model Procedure for Mediation of Business Disputes in effect on the date of this Agreement by a mediator mutually selected by the parties.

- 50 -

          (e)Within thirty (30) days after the mediator has been selected as provided above, both parties and their respective attorneys shall meet with the mediator for one (1) mediation session, it being agreed that each party representative attending such mediation session shall be a Senior Party Representative with authority to settle the Dispute. If the Dispute cannot be settled at such mediation session or at any mutually agreed continuation thereof, either party may give the other and the mediator a written notice declaring the mediation process at an end.

          (f)Costs of the mediation shall be borne equally by the parties involved in the matter, except that each party shall be responsible for its own expenses.

          (g)Any Dispute regarding the following matters is not required to be negotiated or mediated prior to seeking relief from an arbitrator or, if applicable, from a court pursuant to Section 10.14: (i) breach of any obligation of confidentiality or waiver of Privilege; and (ii) any other claim where interim relief is sought to prevent serious and irreparable injury to one of the parties. However, the parties to the Dispute shall make a good faith effort to negotiate and mediate such Dispute, according to the above procedures, while such arbitration is pending.

Section 8.3Arbitration.

          (a)Subject to Section 8.3(b), if for any reason a Dispute is not resolved within one hundred eighty (180) days from delivery of the Dispute Notice in accordance with the dispute resolution process described in Section 8.2, the parties agree that such Dispute shall be settled by binding arbitration before a single arbitrator under the auspices of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania pursuant to the Commercial Rules of the AAA. The arbitrator selected to resolve the Dispute shall be bound exclusively by the laws of the State of New York without regard to its choice of law rules. Any decisions of award of the arbitrator will be final and binding upon the parties and may be entered as a judgment by the parties. Any rights to appeal or review such award by any court or tribunal are hereby waived to the extent permitted by Applicable Law.

          (b)Costs of the arbitration shall be borne equally by the parties involved in the matter, except that each party shall be responsible for its own expenses, except as otherwise determined by the arbitrator.

          (c)The parties agree to comply and cause the members of their applicable Group to comply with any award made in any arbitration proceeding pursuant to this Section 8.3, and agree to enforcement of or entry of judgment upon such award in any court of competent jurisdiction, including any federal or state court located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania or the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan. The arbitrator shall be entitled to award any remedy in such proceedings, including monetary damages, specific performance and all other forms of legal and equitable relief; provided, however, that the arbitrator shall not be entitled to award punitive, exemplary, treble or any other form of non-compensatory monetary damages unless in connection with indemnification for a Third Party Claim, to the extent of such claim.

     Section 8.4Continuity of Service and Performance. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, the parties will continue to provide service and honor all other commitments under this Agreement and each Ancillary Agreement during the course of dispute resolution pursuant to the provisions of this Article VIII with respect to all matters not subject to such Dispute.

- 51 -

     Section 8.5Limitation of Liability. In no event shall any member of the Vishay Group or the VPG Group be liable to any member of the other Group for any special, consequential, indirect, collateral, incidental or punitive damages or lost profits or failure to realize expected savings or other commercial or economic loss of any kind, however caused and on any theory of liability (including negligence) arising in any way out of this Agreement, whether or not such Person has been advised of the possibility of any such damages; provided, however, that the foregoing limitations shall not limit either party’s indemnification obligations for Liabilities with respect to Third Party Claims as set forth in Article V. The provisions of Article V, Article VIII and Section 10.14 shall be the parties’ sole recourse for any breach hereof or any breach of the Ancillary Agreements, except as may be explicitly provided in any Ancillary Agreement.

ARTICLE IX

TERMINATION

     Without limiting the generality of Section 3.5(a), (i) this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements may be terminated, (ii) the Separation may be abandoned and (iii) the Distribution may be abandoned, in each case at any time prior to the Effective Time by and in the sole and absolute discretion of Vishay without the approval of VPG.

Schedule 1.4
Shared Contingent Liabilities

Product Liability

Product liability refers to third party liability from bodily injury and/or property damage caused by faulty products. With respect to products manufactured in all jurisdictions other than the United States and sold prior to the Separation, it also includes other third party financial loss and the cost of dismantling and refitting any other products manufactured with the faulty product, but does not include the cost of product recall. With respect to products sold in the United States, it includes other third party financial loss only to extent covered by the Errors and Omission (E&O) Insurance Policy of the Vishay Group.

The Vishay Group will be responsible for product liability in respect of any product manufactured by the VPG Group outside the United States and sold prior to the Separation, whether a claim is made with respect thereto before or after the Separation, to the extent of available insurance coverage of the Vishay Group.

The Vishay Group will be responsible for product liability in respect of any product sold by the VPG Group prior to the Separation inside the United States, but only for which a claim has been made with respect thereto before the Separation, to the extent of available insurance coverage of the Vishay Group; provided that to the extent the liability is covered under the Errors & Omission (E&O) Insurance Policy of the Vishay Group, Vishay will be responsible for the liability whether a claim is made with respect thereto before or after the Separation.

The following shall govern deductible amounts under any insurance policies of the Vishay Group for which coverage is sought under the circumstances recited in the two preceding paragraphs. Any deductible for which a liability has been accrued on the books and records of the VPG Group prior to the Separation will be the sole responsibility of the VPG Group. Any policy deductible for which a liability has not been accrued on the books and records of the VPG Group prior to the Separation will be shared equally by the Vishay Group and the VPG Group.

Vishay agrees to (i) obtain tail coverage for a period of five years under the E&O Policy of Vishay (as in effect on the date the Agreement), to the extent it affords coverage for third party loss on account of products manufactured and sold by the VPG Group prior to the Separation; and (ii) purchase or self-insure extended reporting coverage for a period of five years for product liability relating to products of the VPG Group manufactured and sold prior to the Separation, which coverage shall be substantially the same (including deductible amounts and policy limits) as the coverage afforded under the existing policy of Vishay with HDI-Gerling (as in effect on the date the Agreement), but only in respect of products manufactured outside the United States.

5

Product Recall Liability

Product Recall Liability refers to third party expenses arising in connection with the recall of a faulty product to prevent bodily injury or property damage.

The Vishay Group will be responsible for product recall liability in respect of any product manufactured by the VPG Group outside the United States and sold prior to the Separation, whether a claim is made with respect thereto before or after the Separation, to the extent of available insurance coverage of the Vishay Group.

The following shall govern deductible amounts under any insurance policies of the Vishay Group for which coverage is sought under the circumstances recited in the preceding paragraph. Any deductible for which a liability has been accrued on the books and records of the VPG Group prior to the Separation will be the sole responsibility of the VPG Group. Any policy deductible for which a liability has not been accrued on the books and records of the VPG Group prior to the Separation will be shared equally by the Vishay Group and the VPG Group.

Vishay agrees to purchase or self-insure extended reporting coverage for a period of five years for product recall liability relating to products of the VPG Group manufactured and sold prior to the Separation, which coverage shall be substantially the same (including deductible amounts and policy limits) as the coverage afforded under the existing policy of Vishay with Gerling Insurance (as in effect on the date the Agreement), but only in respect of products manufactured outside the United States.

Liabilities Relating to the Separation

Liabilities relating to the Separation based upon a claim or other assertion that the Separation violated the rights of any Person or constituted a breach of a duty owed by any Person to the stockholders of Vishay or VPG shall be borne by the Vishay Group and the VPG Group as follows:

(i)	if covered by an insurance policy of the Vishay Group or an insurance policy of the VPG Group, by the Vishay Group or the VPG Group, as the case may be, but only to the extent of the insurance proceeds;
(ii)	each party shall be responsible for the policy deductible under its insurance policy referred to in clause (i); and

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any such employees who are on an approved leave of absence (including maternity, paternity, family, sick leave, qualified military service under the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act of 1994, short-term or long-term disability leave, leave under the Family Medical Leave Act and other approved leave) prior to and as of the Distribution Date shall not be transferred to VPG or a member of the VPG Group unless and until they return to work. Such transfer shall not be treated as a separation from service for purposes of any Vishay Benefit Plan or any agreement (or any benefit thereunder) which is subject to the provisions of Section 409A of the Code.

Section 2.2Assumption and Retention of Liabilities.

(a)As of the Distribution Date, except as otherwise expressly provided for in this Agreement or any other agreement by and between the Parties, and/or their Affiliates, Vishay shall, or shall cause one or more other members of the Vishay Group to, retain and Vishay hereby agrees to pay, perform, fulfill and discharge, in due course in full: (i) all Liabilities under all Vishay Benefit Plans with respect to the Vishay Employees; and (ii) any other Liabilities or obligations expressly assigned to Vishay or any other member of the Vishay Group under this Agreement.

“Per Share Market Value” of the VPG Common Stock or the Vishay Common Stock means the average Daily Market Price of the respective security for the first ten (10) consecutive trading days following the Distribution Date. “Daily Market Price” for a security on any trading day means the volume-weighted average of the per share selling prices of the security on the New York Stock Exchange or other principal United States securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system on which the security is then listed or quoted; or, if there are no reported sales of the security on a trading day, the average of the high bid and low ask price for the security on such trading day; or, if there are no high bid and low ask prices on such trading day, the Daily Market Price shall be the per share fair market value of the security as determined by the board of directors of the issuer of the security in good faith.

          (b)Performance Goals. Effective as of the Separation, Vishay shall amend each outstanding grant of performance stock units (restricted stock units that are subject to performance-based vesting) granted pursuant to the Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. 2007 Stock Incentive Program, as amended and restated effective April 2008, to reduce by 10% the numeric value of each applicable performance goal that applies to periods following the Separation.

Section 5.3Stock Options.

(a)Stock Options Held by Vishay Employees. Effective as of the Distribution Date, Vishay will amend each outstanding grant of stock options made pursuant to the Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. 1998 Stock Option Program, the Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. 2007 Stock Incentive Program, as amended and restated effective April 2008, and the Amended and Restated 1998 Long-Term Incentive Plan of General Semiconductor, Inc. to reduce the exercise price of each of the stock options and increase the number of shares issuable upon exercise of each of the stock options according to the following formulas:

EVs	=	EV x PVs / (PVs + r x PPs)
and
NVs	=	NV x EV / EVs

where
	EV	is the per share exercise price of the Vishay stock option prior to the Distribution Date;
	NV	is the number of shares of Vishay Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the stock option prior to the Distribution Date;
	EVs	is the per share exercise price of the Vishay stock option following the Distribution Date;
	PVs	is the Per Share Market Value of Vishay Common Stock following the Distribution Date;

14

NVs	is the number of shares of Vishay Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the stock option following the Distribution Date;
PPs	is the Per Share Market Value of VPG Common Stock following the Distribution Date; and
r	is the distribution ratio for the Distribution.

The other terms of the Vishay stock options, including their remaining vesting schedule if any, shall remain the same.

          (b)Stock Options Held by VPG Employees. Effective as of the separation, VPG shall issue to VPG Employees who hold unvested Vishay stock options that will be forfeited as a result of the Distribution stock options under the VPG Stock Incentive Program in lieu of their Vishay stock options. In addition, VPG shall offer to VPG Employees who hold vested Vishay stock options the opportunity to replace those options with VPG stock options. In either case, the exercise price of each of the VPG stock options and the number of shares of VPG Common Stock issuable upon exercise of each of the stock options shall be determined according to the following formulas:

EPs	=	EV x PPs /(PVs + (r x PPs))
and
NPs	=	NV x EV / EPs

where
	EPs	is the per share exercise price of the option to purchase VPG Common Stock;
	NPs	is the number of shares of VPG Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the stock option; and

the other symbols have the same values as those assigned above with respect to the formulas for treatment of Vishay stock options.

The other terms of the VPG stock options shall be the same as the Vishay stock options that they are intended to replace. In the case of VPG stock options issued in lieu of forfeited Vishay stock options, the vesting schedule for the VPG stock options shall be the same as the remaining vesting schedule of the forfeited Vishay stock options. If the exercise price of any VPG stock options is less than the market value of VPG Common Stock on the date the stock options are issued, VPG may issue the VPG stock options according to a different formula in order to comply with regulations under Section 409A of the Code.

ARTICLE VI

If one Party receives a tax benefit as a result of any payment or benefit funded by the other Party under this Agreement, the first Party shall reimburse the other Party for that tax benefit at the time and to the extent that such tax benefit is realized.

          (b)Equity-Based Compensation Deductions. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 7.5(a), the Parties agree that, to the extent permitted by law, tax deductions for equity-based compensation described in Section 5.3 shall be allocated to and claimed by the member or members of the Vishay Group or the VPG Group, as the case may be, that employed the individual receiving the compensation during the relevant vesting period based on the number of months of such individual’s employment with such entity or entities.

          (c)The member or members of a Group claiming any tax deduction on account of compensation paid to a VPG Employee shall be responsible for any tax reporting obligations, including but not limited to the filing of any required form W-2, and payment of any taxes imposed upon the employer in respect of the corresponding amounts, in proportion to the amount claimed as a deduction. The Party in control of the payment of any such amounts shall be responsible for effecting the withholding of any applicable income and employment tax withholding required to be effected from any such payment. The Parties shall cooperate with each other to facilitate any required tax reporting obligations, including sharing, as relevant, information regarding amounts withheld from the payments to the employees. To the extent deductions cannot be claimed in the manner referenced in this Section 7.5(c), or are disallowed or adjusted on audit, the entity that receives the tax benefit shall reimburse the entity that would have received such tax benefit pursuant to the preceding sentence as and when realized. To the extent such reimbursement is treated as taxable income, the reimbursing party shall gross-up the reimbursement amount for taxes.

          (d)Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Parties agree to cooperate to minimize the loss of deductions and to utilize commercially reasonable best efforts to have the applicable plans, programs and arrangements comply with Section 409A of the Code.

REGISTRATION STATEMENT ON FORM 10

VPG Common Stock Expected to Begin Trading on June 23, 2010

VPG on Track for July 6, 2010 Separation from Vishay

MALVERN, PA – June 22, 2010 – Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. (“Vishay”) (NYSE: VSH) announced today that, in connection with its proposed spin-off of Vishay Precision Group, Inc. (“VPG”) from Vishay, the Securities and Exchange Commission has declared effective VPG’s Registration Statement on Form 10. An information statement containing detailed information concerning VPG and the spin-off will be mailed to stockholders of record as of 5:00 p.m. ET on June 25, 2010, the record date for the distribution.

VPG common stock will begin trading on a “when-issued” basis on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) under the symbol “VPG WI” (when-issued) beginning on June 23, 2010. The targeted distribution date is July 6, 2010, and the common stock is expected to begin “regular way” trading under the ticker symbol “VPG” at the start of trading on July 7, 2010. The CUSIP number for the VPG common stock will be 92835K 103 when regular way trading begins. Vishay common stock will continue to trade on the NYSE under its current symbol, VSH.

As previously announced, on the distribution date, Vishay common stockholders of record will receive one share of VPG common stock for every 14 shares of Vishay common stock they hold, and Vishay Class B common stockholders of record will receive one share of VPG Class B common stock for every 14 shares of Vishay Class B common stock they hold. Fractional shares of VPG common stock and VPG Class B common stock will not be distributed to Vishay stockholders. Instead, the fractional shares of VPG common stock will be aggregated and sold in the open market, with the net proceeds distributed pro rata in the form of cash payments to Vishay stockholders who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fractional share of VPG common stock. Holders of Vishay Class B common stock will be compensated by VPG for fractional shares of VPG Class B common stock they were entitled to receive based upon the same price used to cash out the fractional shares of VPG common stock.

No action or payment is required by Vishay stockholders to receive the shares of VPG common stock and VPG Class B common stock. Stockholders who hold Vishay common stock or Vishay Class B common stock on the record date will receive a book-entry account statement reflecting their ownership of VPG common stock or VPG Class B common stock, or their brokerage account will be credited with the appropriate VPG shares. Any holders of shares of Vishay common stock who sell Vishay shares regular way on or before the distribution date will also be selling their right to receive shares of VPG common stock. Investors are encouraged to consult with their financial advisers regarding the specific implications of buying or selling Vishay common stock on or before the distribution date.
