The Company is successfully following its Growth Plan, the foundation of which is its strong financial health. For the first time in the Company’s history, Vishay will begin to make quarterly cash dividend payments to its stockholders. Our historically strong cash generation even during economically challenging times enables us to start paying a cash dividend to our stockholders, while also continuing to pursue our Growth Plan, which includes organic growth supplemented by small to mid-size acquisitions. We are pleased to be in a position to return cash to our stockholders and are proud of the strong financial health of Vishay. From 2010 to 2012, we repurchased 44.3 million shares of our common stock, representing 24% of our shares outstanding before we began this initiative. With the initiation of a quarterly cash dividend program, we have now taken yet another step in our continuous efforts to enhance stockholder value. We have also enhanced stockholder value through targeted acquisitions of specialty businesses. In June 2013, Vishay acquired MCB Industrie S.A., a manufacturer of resistors used as motion sensors in avionics, military, and space applications and as power resistors in traction, energy distribution, and various other industrial applications. The acquisition of MCB Industrie S.A. follows the 2012 acquisition of HiRel Systems and the previous year’s acquisition of Huntington Electric. Vishay will continue to pursue targeted acquisitions of small to mid-size businesses, while at the same time investing in R&D and stimulating organic growth. I am confident that Vishay’s strong financial health and solid market position will lead to continued growth in 2014 and beyond. I offer my sincere thanks to Vishay’s employees, customers, vendors, strategic business partners, and stockholders. Thank you for your faith in Vishay. Marc Zandman Executive Chairman of the Board LETTER FROM THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER For manufacturers of electronic components, year 2013 overall was not bad. However, developments in relevant market segments differed from one another. Vishay’s results in this environment were acceptable. In 2013, Vishay generated “free cash” (the amount of cash generated from operations in excess of capital expenditures and net of proceeds from the sale of assets) of $144 million. Vishay has consistently generated in excess of $100 million in “free cash” in each of the past eight years. We defended the level of contributive margin during recent years and also kept increases in fixed costs low while adding technical resources. We remain committed to our Growth Plan, which includes organic growth supplemented by small to mid-size acquisitions. In October, Vishay announced several cost reduction programs. These programs include a plan to enhance the competitiveness of the Company’s MOSFETs business, and a voluntary separation/ early retirement offer to certain employees Company-wide. There are also two smaller cost reduction programs concerning manufacturing within the Company’s diodes business. The programs in total are expected to lower costs by approximately $36 million per year when fully implemented at expected cash costs of approximately $32 million. These programs are in process, and there are plans for further cost reductions. In case of a real upturn, Vishay is very well positioned. We would benefit from increased capacities in strategic product lines; from having improved market access in the industrial segment in Asia, specifically in China; from increased technical resources; from our broad and innovative product portfolio; and from our strong position with distributors worldwide. I am grateful to Vishay’s employees, customers, vendors, strategic business partners, and stockholders for their support in 2013 and anticipate further success in 2014. Dr. Gerald Paul Chief Executive Officer Vishay Intertechnology 1 THE VISHAY STORY Dr. Felix Zandman, with a loan from his cousin Alfred P. Slaner, founded Vishay in 1962 to develop and manufacture Bulk Metal® foil resistors. The Company was named after Dr. Zandman’s ancestral village in Lithuania, in memory of family members who perished in the Holocaust. When Dr. Zandman passed away in 2011, he left a lasting legacy. His high standards and values are embedded in Vishay’s culture. ACQUISITIONS During the 1960s and 1970s, Vishay became known as the world’s leading manufacturer of foil resistors, PhotoStress® products, and strain gages. (These products later became part of Vishay Precision Group [NYSE: VPG], which was spun off as an independent, publicly traded company in 2010 through a tax-free stock dividend to Vishay Intertechnology stockholders.) Vishay’s decision in the mid-1980s to grow through acquisitions proved very successful. Starting in 1985, Vishay acquired resistor companies Dale Electronics (U.S.), Draloric Electronic (Germany), and Sfernice (France). These acquisitions helped produce dramatic sales growth. In the early 1990s, Vishay applied its acquisition strategy to the capacitor market by purchasing Sprague Electric (U.S.), Roederstein (Germany), and Vitramon (U.S.). In 2002, Vishay purchased BCcomponents, the former passive component businesses of Philips Electronics (Netherlands) and Beyschlag (Germany). In 1998, Vishay acquired the Semiconductor Business Group of TEMIC, which included Telefunken (Germany) and 80.4% of Siliconix (U.S.), producers of MOSFETs, RF transistors, diodes, optoelectronic products, and power and analog switching integrated circuits. Vishay’s next semiconductor acquisition came in 2001, with the purchase of the infrared component business of Infineon Technologies (Germany). That was followed the same year by the acquisition of General Semiconductor (U.S.), a leading global manufacturer of rectifiers and diodes. These 2001 acquisitions enhanced Vishay’s existing Telefunken and Siliconix businesses and propelled Vishay into the top ranks of discrete semiconductor manufacturers. In 2005, Vishay purchased the remaining 19.6% of Siliconix shares. Two years later, Vishay acquired selected discrete semiconductor and module product lines from International Rectifier. This acquisition added manufacturing plants in Italy, China, and India and provided products that were new to Vishay: high-voltage planar MOSFETs and high-power diodes and thyristors. Over the years, Vishay has made a number of other passive component acquisitions. These include Electro-Films, Cera-Mite, and Spectrol in 2000; Tansitor and North American Capacitor Company (Mallory) in 2001; the thin film interconnect business of Aeroflex in 2004; Phoenix do Brasil in 2006; and the wet tantalum capacitor business of KEMET in 2008. In 2011, Vishay acquired the resistor businesses of Huntington Electric, composed of Huntington, Milwaukee, Central, and Mills Resistors. In 2012, Vishay acquired HiRel Systems, a leading supplier of high- reliability transformers, inductors, coils, and power conversion products. In 2013, Vishay acquired MCB Industrie S.A., a manufacturer of resistors used as motion sensors in avionics, military, and space applications and as power resistors in traction, energy distribution, and various other industrial applications. Since 2011, Vishay’s acquisition strategy has focused on opportunistic small to mid-size acquisitions of niche businesses to supplement organic growth.

ZANDMAN’S LEGACY When Dr. Felix Zandman, Vishay’s founder and Executive Chairman of the Board, passed away in 2011, he left a lasting legacy. His high standards and values are embedded in Vishay’s culture. They positively influence the ethical business practices implemented by Vishay personnel, across the globe, every day. Marc Zandman, as Executive Chairman of the Board, and Dr. Gerald Paul, as President and CEO, are committed to building upon Dr. Zandman’s efforts and leading Vishay through its next phase of continued growth. 2 Vishay Intertechnology DRIVING STOCKHOLDER VALUE Vishay’s Growth Plan is focused on driving stockholder value. It will do this through intensified organic growth, targeted acquisitions, a cash dividend program, and opportunistic stock buybacks, while at the same time maintaining a prudent capital structure. Vishay is a reliable generator of “free cash” (the amount of cash generated from operations in excess of capital expenditures and net of proceeds from the sale of assets). Vishay has consistently generated in excess of $100 million in “free cash” in each of the past eight years. From 2010 to 2012, the Company repurchased 44.3 million shares of its common stock, representing 24% of its shares outstanding before it began this initiative. In February 2014, Vishay announced its first ever cash dividend, taking yet another step in its continuous efforts to enhance stockholder value.

Vishay Intertechnology 3 DIVERSE COMPONENTS PASSIVE COMPONENTS RESISTORS Resistors restrict current flow. Vishay manufactures many different types of resistive products, including single (discrete) resistors based on film, wirewound, Power Metal Strip®, and other technologies, as well as resistor networks and arrays, in which multiple resistors are combined in a single package. Vishay also manufactures battery management shunts, chip fuses, variable resistors (including potentiometers), and non-linear resistors (including thermistors, used for current protection and temperature sensing). Vishay is a market and technology leader in wirewound and other power resistors, leaded film resistors, and thin film surface-mount resistors. INDUCTORS Inductors, a category of magnetics, use an internal magnetic field to change AC current phase and resist AC current. Inductor functions include controlling AC current and voltage and filtering out unwanted electrical signals. Transformers, also a type of magnetics, are made up of two inductors on a common core of magnetic material. Transformers increase or decrease AC voltage or AC currents. Vishay innovations include IHLP® power inductors, which outperform competing devices. Vishay is a market and technology leader in power inductors and custom magnetics. CAPACITORS Capacitors store energy and discharge it when needed. Applications include power conversion, DC-linking, frequency conversion, bypass, decoupling, and filtering. Types of capacitors manufactured by Vishay Intertechnology include tantalum (both solid and wet), ceramic (both multilayer chip and disc), film, power, heavy-current, and aluminum. Vishay is a market and technology leader in wet and conformal-coated tantalum capacitors, as well as capacitors for power electronics. Vishay is also one of the largest manufacturers of molded tantalum surface-mount capacitors. Passive components (resistors, capacitors, and inductors) do not require a power supply to handle the signals that pass through them. They are used to store electrical charges, to limit or resist electrical current, and to help in filtering, surge suppression, measurement, timing, and tuning applications. Resistors Inductors Capacitors 4 Vishay Intertechnology Diodes M O S FETs Discrete semiconductors (including MOSFETs, rectifiers, diodes, and infrared optoelectronics components) typically perform the function of switching, amplifying, rectifying, or transmitting electrical signals. Semiconductors are referred to as “active” components because they require power to function. SFETs O M Optoelectronics SEMICONDUCTORS MOSFETs DIODES AND THYRISTORS Metal oxide semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs) function as solid-state switches to control power. For example, they turn off specific functions of smartphones when these functions are not in use, thereby extending battery life. They also help convert power into levels required by other components. Vishay offers low- voltage TrenchFET® power MOSFETs, medium-voltage power MOSFETs, high-voltage planar MOSFETs, high- voltage Super Junction MOSFETs, and automotive-grade MOSFETs that switch and manage power very efficiently. Vishay is a market and technology leader in low-voltage power MOSFETs. Diodes and thyristors are semiconductor components that allow voltage to be conducted in only one direction. Most diodes are based on semiconductor p-n junctions; in thyristors there are four layers of p-n material creating three p-n junctions. Both types of devices are used in a wide range of electronic systems to route, switch, and block radio frequency (RF), analog, and power signals. The Vishay diodes portfolio includes a variety of devices, as well as products for transient voltage suppression (TVS), electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection, and electromagnetic interference (EMI) filtering. INTEGRATED CIRCUITS (ICs) INFRARED OPTOELECTRONICS Integrated circuits combine the functions of multiple semiconductors and passive components on a single chip. IC products from Vishay are focused on analog signal switching and routing, power conversion, and power management. They are used in end products such as tablet, notebook, and desktop computers; smartphones; fixed telecommunications systems; and other products and systems. The Vishay IC portfolio includes power management and power control ICs, smart load switches, and analog switches and multiplexers. Optoelectronic components emit light, detect light, or do both. Vishay’s broad range of optoelectronic components includes infrared (IR) emitters and detectors, IR remote control receivers, optical sensors for detection, optocouplers and solid-state relays for circuit isolation, LEDs for light sources, 7-segment displays, IR data transceiver modules for wireless, two- way data transfer, and custom products. Vishay is a market and technology leader in infrared components. RECTIFIERS Rectifiers convert alternating current (AC) into direct current (DC), a unidirectional current required for operation of many electronic systems. For example, a bridge rectifier is used in a phone charger to change the AC voltage from a wall outlet to a specific DC voltage. Vishay rectifiers, including TMBS®, FRED Pt®, HEXFRED®, SUPERECTIFIER®, eSMP®, and isoCink+™ devices, save space, reduce power losses, and improve efficiency in computing, telecommunications, and other areas. Vishay is a market and technology leader in power rectifiers. Vishay Intertechnology 5 DIVERSE MARKETS Vishay Intertechnology supports customers in virtually every major market sector.
