Item 7.01 – Regulation FD Disclosure
Conversion Ratio Adjustments for Dividends
The quarterly cash dividend program of Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. ("the Company" or "Vishay") results in adjustments to the conversion rate and
effective conversion price for each issuance of the Company's convertible senior notes, specifically, the 2.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2025 (the "2025 Notes"). As required by the indentures governing the terms of each issuance of convertible
senior notes, the Company has delivered a notice and officers' certificate to the trustees regarding these adjustments.
Pursuant to the indentures governing the terms of each issuance of convertible senior notes, effective December 3, 2024 (the ex-dividend date), the
adjusted conversion rate and adjusted effective conversion price are as follows (subject to the conditions applicable to conversion set forth in the indentures):

Item 8.01 – Other Events
In February 2022, the Board of Directors of Vishay approved, and
Vishay announced a Stockholder Return Policy ("SHRP"), which set forth the intention of Vishay to annually return to stockholders at least 70% of free cash flow, net of scheduled principal payments of long-term debt, directly in the form of
dividends, or indirectly, in the form of stock repurchases.
To enable the operation of the SHRP, Vishay's Board of Directors approves the repurchase of a stated number of shares of common stock from time-to-time. As of
September 28, 2024, approximately 1.2 million shares remained from the previous repurchase authorization of 8.5 million shares.
On December 3, 2024, Vishay's Board of Directors approved the repurchase
of an additional 3.0 million shares of common stock, to enable the operation of the SHRP for the foreseeable future.
