         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the terms and provisions of this
Agreement and the Separation, and for other good and valuable consideration, the
receipt of which is acknowledged by the execution and delivery hereof, VAT and
Vishay S.A. hereby agree as follows:

    Definitions 

     

         Terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given
to them in this Article I. 

     

    
      	A.	        	“Licensed Products” shall mean the finished RCK foil
      resistor products specified in Schedule A, that were manufactured by
      Vishay S.A. prior to the Separation.
	 
	B.	
            	“Manufacturing
      Agreement” shall
      refer to that certain Manufacturing Agreement dated as of _____, 2010
      between Vishay S.A. and VPG Gmbh.

    

     

    Article II

     

    Intellectual Property
License

     

    
      	A.	        	License Grant. Subject to the terms and conditions
      set forth in this Agreement, VAT hereby grants to Vishay S.A., a
      non-exclusive, irrevocable, worldwide right and license to the Licensed IP
      to make, have made, use, sell, offer for sale, export and import Licensed
      Products. Vishay S.A. may only sell and offer for sale Licensed Products
      pursuant to the Manufacturing Agreement to customers of VPG GmbH or as
      otherwise approved in writing by VAT.
	 
	B.	
            	License Fees. For the license and rights granted
      herein, Vishay S.A. shall pay VAT
USD10.

    

    

    
    

    
      	C.	        	Improvements. Licensee acknowledges and agrees that
      any modification, change, development, enhancement, derivative or
      improvement (collectively, “Improvements”) made by, or on behalf of, Licensee to
      the Licensed IP or Licensed Product, shall be owned exclusively by
      Licensor, and to the extent that Licensee retains any rights therein,
      Licensee irrevocably assigns all right, title and interest therein to
      Licensor. All Improvements shall be deemed Licensed IP or Licensed
      Products, as appropriate, and shall be subject to the terms of this
      Agreement.
	 
	D.	
            	Enforcement. Vishay S.A. shall cooperate fully and
      promptly with VAT in the protection of VAT’s rights in the Licensed IP, in
      such manner and to such extent as VAT may reasonably request, and at VAT’s
      expense. 
	 
	
            	
            	1. Each party
      shall promptly notify the other party in writing of any actual or
      potential infringement, or any other unauthorized use of or violation of
      the Licensed IP of which it becomes aware (each an “Infringement”). VAT may take such action as it, in
      its sole discretion, deems necessary or advisable to stop any
      Infringement. Vishay S.A. may request in writing that VAT institute an
      action to stop an Infringement affecting the Licensed Products. If VAT
      receives such a written request and does not institute such action within
      thirty (30) days, Vishay S.A. shall be entitled to institute such action
      as it deems necessary or advisable to stop such Infringement, in which VAT
      shall be entitled to join; provided that Vishay S.A. shall not compromise or
      settle any claim or action regarding the Licensed IP in any manner that
      would affect the rights of VAT without the written consent of VAT, which
      consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The party not
      taking the lead in any action shall cooperate fully with the other party
      at the other party’s reasonable request and expense, including VAT joining
      a suit instituted by Vishay S.A. in accordance with this Section to the
      extent necessary for Vishay S.A. to have standing.
	 
	
            	
            	2. Any monetary
      recovery or sums obtained in settlement of any action to stop an
      Infringement shall be allocated between VAT and Vishay S.A. as shall be
      fair and equitable, taking into account their actual out-of-pocket costs
      and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, and the damages
      sustained by each of them. Any dispute with respect to the allocation of
      recoveries shall be resolved in accordance with the resolution procedures
      referred to in Article V-P.

      Parties. VAT
      warrants that it has the right and power to enter into this Agreement, and
      that there are no outstanding assignments, grants, licenses, encumbrances,
      obligations or agreements, either written or oral or implied, that prevent
      it from doing so. Vishay S.A. warrants that it has the right and power to
      enter into this Agreement, and that there are no outstanding assignments,
      grants, licenses, encumbrances, obligations or agreements, either written
      or oral or implied, that prevent it from doing
so.

      EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR OTHERWISE, UNDER THIS AGREEMENT INCLUDING
      REPRESENTATIONS, GUARANTEES OR WARRANTIES AS TO THE RESULTS TO BE EXPECTED

      TO USE THE LICENSED IP; FOR THE CLAIMS OF THIRD PARTIES RELATING TO ANY
      PRODUCTS MANUFACTURED OR SOLD BY VISHAY S.A.; OR FOR ANY FAILURE IN
      PRODUCTION, DESIGN OR OPERATION OF ANY PRODUCT MANUFACTURED OR SOLD BY VISHAY S.A. THE

      effectuate the intents and purposes of this Agreement.
	 
	C.	
            	Relationship of the
      Parties. This
      Agreement shall not be construed to place the parties in the relationship
      of legal representatives, partners, joint venturers or agents of or with

      	G.	        	Waiver of Defaults. Waiver by any party hereto of any
      default by the other party hereto of any provision of this Agreement shall
      not be construed to be a waiver by the waiving party of any subsequent or
      other default, nor shall it in any way affect the validity of this
      Agreement or prejudice the rights of the other party thereafter to enforce
      each and every such provision. No failure or delay by any party hereto in
      exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a
      waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude
      any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right,
      power or privilege.
	 
	H.	
            	Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is
      determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or
      unenforceable, the remaining provisions hereof shall remain in full force
      and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated
      thereby, so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions
      contemplated hereby, as the case may be, is not affected in any manner
      adverse to any party hereto or thereto. Upon such determination, the
      parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith in an effort to agree upon a
      suitable and equitable provision to effect the original intent of the
      parties hereto.
	 
	I.	
            	Indemnification. Each of the parties shall indemnify,
      defend and hold harmless the other party, each of its respective current
      and former directors, officers and employees, and each of their respective
      heirs, executors, successors and assigns (“Indemnified Parties”), from and against any and all
      liabilities relating to a claim by a third party arising out of or
      resulting from any breach of, or failure to perform or comply with, any
      covenant, undertaking or obligation of, this Agreement by the indemnifying
      party. All indemnification procedures and payments shall be governed by
      Sections 5.6, 5.7 and 5.8 of the Master Separation Agreement, as
      applicable. The foregoing indemnification obligations shall survive any
      termination or expiration of this Agreement.
	 
	J.	
            	LIMITATION OF
      LIABILITY. IN NO
      EVENT SHALL VAT OR VISHAY S.A. BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER 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,
      ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT THE FOREGOING
      LIMITATIONS SHALL NOT LIMIT EITHER PARTY’S INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS
      WITH RESPECT TO THIRD PARTY CLAIMS.
	 
	K.	
            	Confidential
      Information. VAT and
      Vishay S.A. shall hold and shall cause each of their respective
      affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents, consultants, advisors
      and other representatives to hold, in strict confidence and not to
      disclose or release without the prior written consent of the other party,
      any and all proprietary or confidential information, material or data of
      the other party that comes into its possession in connection with the
      performance by the parties of their rights and obligations under this
      Agreement. The provisions of Section 4.5 of the Master Purchase Agreement
      shall govern, mutatis mutandis, the confidentiality obligations of the
      parties under this Section. 
	 
	L.	
            	Attorneys’ Fees. In any action hereunder to enforce the
      provisions of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to
      recover its reasonable attorneys’ fees in addition to any other recovery
      hereunder.

      	M.	        	Governing Law. This Agreement and the legal relations
      between the parties shall be governed by and construed in accordance with
      the laws of the State of New York, without regard to the conflict of laws
      rules thereof to the extent such rules would require the application of
      the law of another jurisdiction.
	 
	N.	
            	Consent to
      Jurisdiction.
      Subject to the provisions referenced in Article V-P, each of the parties irrevocably
      submits to the jurisdiction of the federal and state courts located in
      Philadelphia, Pennsylvania for the purposes of any suit, action or other
      proceeding to compel arbitration, for the enforcement of any arbitration
      award or for specific performance or other equitable relief pursuant to
      Article V-P. Each of the parties further agrees
      that service of process, summons or other document by U.S. registered mail
      to such parties address as provided in Article V-A shall be effective service of process
      for any action, suit or other proceeding with respect to any matters for
      which it has submitted to jurisdiction pursuant to this Section. Each of
      the parties irrevocably waives any objection to venue in the federal and
      state courts located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania of any action, suit or
      proceeding arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated
      hereby.
	 
	O.	
            	Specific Performance. The parties hereto agree that the
      remedy at law for any breach of this Agreement may be inadequate, and that
      any party hereto shall be entitled to specific performance in addition to
      any other appropriate relief or remedy. Such party may, in its sole
      discretion, apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for specific
      performance or injunctive or such other relief as such court may deem just
      and proper in order to enforce this Agreement.
	 
	P.	
            	Dispute Resolution. The procedures set forth in Article
      VIII of the Master Separation Agreement shall apply to the resolution of
      all disputes arising under this Agreement, except that all proceedings
      provided for therein shall be conducted in Philadelphia,
      Pennsylvania.
	 
	Q.	
            	Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Schedules
      hereto, as well as any other agreements and documents referred to herein,
      constitute the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the
      subject matter hereof and supersede all previous agreements, negotiations,
      discussions, understandings, writings, commitments and conversations
      between the parties with respect to such subject matter.
	 
	R.	
            	Waiver of Jury Trial. SUBJECT TO SECTION L.16, EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVES TO
      THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY
      JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY COURT PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING
      OUT OF AND PERMITTED UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE
      TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT.
	 
	S.	
            	Amendments. No provisions of this Agreement shall
      be deemed amended, modified or supplemented by any party hereto, unless
      such amendment, supplement or modification is in writing and signed by the
      authorized representative of the party against whom it is sought to
      enforce such amendment, supplement or
modification.

         SECTION 2.1 Agreement to Purchase and Sell
Products. (a) During the
Term, Supplier hereby agrees to manufacture and sell to Buyer, and Buyer hereby
agrees to purchase and accept from Supplier, the Products in such quantities,
within such delivery deadlines and on such other terms as reasonably necessary
to enable Buyer to fill orders submitted by Vishay Precision Foil GmbH (“VPG
GmbH”) for finished RCK foil products under the Manufacturing Agreement dated as
of even date herewith between Buyer and VPG GmbH, as may be amended or
supplemented from time to time (the “Manufacturing Agreement”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, and in the
event that Buyer reasonably believes that Supplier’s manufacturing and delivery
schedule will cause Buyer to breach its obligations under the Manufacturing
Agreement, the parties agree to cooperate in good faith to avoid a breach of
either this Agreement or the Manufacturing Agreement. 

     

         (b) All Products to be sold to Buyer pursuant to
this Agreement shall be manufactured by Supplier or an Affiliate of Supplier;
provided, however, that Supplier may subcontract the
manufacture of any Product to a manufacturer that is not an Affiliate of
Supplier with Buyer’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld, provided that any such subcontracting shall not
relieve Supplier of its obligations hereunder. 

     

         SECTION 2.2 Product Specifications and
Changes. Supplier shall
manufacture all Products according to the Specifications in effect as of the
date of this Agreement, with such changes or additions to the Specifications of

Obligations, on the other. 

     

         SECTION 2.4 Product Changes. Supplier shall communicate any change in the
Specifications for any Product or its manufacture in accordance with Supplier’s
product change notification process. Buyer shall be deemed to have accepted such

Buyer informs Supplier that such change is not acceptable. If Buyer informs
Supplier that such change is not acceptable, Supplier may by notice to Buyer
either (x) continue to supply the Product in accordance with the original
Specifications and manufacturing procedures or (y) terminate this Agreement with
respect to such Product on a date specified by Supplier in a notice of
termination, which date shall not be earlier than the earlier of one (1) year from the date of
Buyer’s information that it does not accept the change proposed by Supplier,
subject to the right of the Buyer to submit a Last-Time Buy Order in accordance
with Section 3.5. Supplier shall not change the Specifications
if to do so would prevent Buyer from being able to comply with its obligations
under the Manufacturing Agreement.

discontinuation shall take effect on a date specified by Supplier in a notice of
discontinuation, which date shall not be earlier than one (1) year from the date
of the notice of discontinuation; subject to the right of the Buyer to submit a
Last-Time Buy Order in accordance with Section 3.5. To the extent that a discontinuation by VAT
under this Section 2.5 causes Buyer to be unable to satisfy its obligations
under the Manufacturing Agreement, Buyer shall be released from any claims of
breach of this Agreement caused by such discontinuation. 

     

         SECTION 2.6 Consultation and Support. At either Party’s reasonable request, the
Parties shall meet and discuss the nature, quality and level of supply services
contemplated by this Agreement. In addition, Supplier will make available on a
commercially reasonable basis and at commercially reasonable times qualified
personnel to provide knowledgeable support service with respect to the Products.

charges incurred by Supplier in providing other than routine product support.

writing, Buyer shall make payment separately for each Firm Order. Buyer shall

or allows for prepayment with a discount. Invoices shall not be sent earlier
than the date on which the Products related thereto are delivered to Buyer.

     

         SECTION 3.5 Last-Time Buy Order.

     

         (a) Buyer shall have a right to place a written
last-time Firm Order for a Product (a “Last-Time Buy Order”) at such time and in such quantities as may
be required in order to comply with a last-time buy order under the
Manufacturing Agreement. The right of the Buyer to submit a Last-Time Buy Order
shall entitle Buyer to purchase the Products at the price in effect for the
products as of the time of Buyer’s exercise of such right.

     

         (b) A Last-Time Buy Order shall specify (i) number
of units of the Product to be purchased and (ii) the requested delivery date or
dates for such units. If Supplier informs Buyer that it cannot honor the
requested delivery dates because of capacity restraints or otherwise, the
Parties shall negotiate in good faith with respect to delivery dates mutually
acceptable to Supplier and Buyer.

     

         (c) The Parties hereby agree to use commercially
reasonable efforts to coordinate forecasting and ordering during the period
between the date the Last-Time Buy Order is delivered to Supplier and the final
delivery date to allow for regular supply of Products during such
period.

         (c) Any Party seeking indemnification pursuant to
this Section 5.3 shall promptly notify the other Party of the
claim as to which indemnification is sought, shall afford the other Party, at
the other Party’s sole expense, the opportunity to defend or settle the claim
(in which case the indemnifying Party shall not be responsible for the
attorneys’ fees of the indemnified Party with respect such claim) and shall
cooperate to the extent reasonably requested by the other Party in the
investigation and defense of such claim; provided, however, that any settlement of any such claim that
would adversely affect the rights of the indemnified Party shall require the
written approval of such indemnified Party; and provided further that an indemnified Party shall not settle
any such claim without the written approval of the indemnifying Party.

         SECTION 8.9 Waivers. No claim or right arising out of or relating
to a breach of any provision of this Agreement can be discharged in whole or in
part by a waiver or renunciation of the claim or right unless the waiver or
renunciation is supported by consideration and is in writing signed by the
aggrieved Party. Any failure by any Party to enforce at any time any provision
under this Agreement shall not be considered a waiver of that Party’s right
thereafter to enforce each and every provision of this Agreement.

    Any notice, demand or
other communication hereunder shall be deemed given upon the first to occur of:
(i) the fifth (5th) day after deposit thereof, postage prepaid
and addressed correctly, in a receptacle under the control of the United States
Postal Service; (ii) transmittal by facsimile transmission to a receiver or
other device under the control of the party to whom notice is being given; (iii)
actual delivery to or receipt by the party to whom notice is being given or an
employee or agent thereof; or (iv) one (1) day after delivery to an overnight

         SECTION 8.11 Headings. The headings contained herein are included
for convenience of reference only and do not constitute a part of this
Agreement. 

     

         SECTION 8.12 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or
more counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered or transmitted
by facsimile, e-mail or other electronic means, shall be deemed to be an
original and all of which taken together shall constitute but one and the same
instrument. A facsimile or electronic signature is deemed an original signature
for all purposes under this Agreement. 

     

         SECTION 8.13 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the
application thereof to any Person or circumstance is determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remaining
provisions hereof, or the application of such provision to Persons or
circumstances or in jurisdictions other than those as to which it has been held
invalid or unenforceable, shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no
way be affected, impaired or invalidated thereby, so long as the economic or
legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any
manner adverse to any party. Upon such determination, the Parties shall
negotiate in good faith in an effort to agree upon such a suitable and equitable
provision to effect the original intent of the Parties. 

     

         SECTION 8.14 Waiver of Default. (a) Any term or provision of this Agreement
may be waived, or the time for its performance may be extended, by the party or
the parties entitled to the benefit thereof. Any such waiver shall be validly
and sufficiently given for the purposes of this Agreement if, as to any party,
it is in writing signed by an authorized representative of such party.

     

         (b) Waiver by any party of any default by the
other party of any provision of this Agreement shall not be construed to be a
waiver by the waiving party of any subsequent or other default, nor shall it in
any way affect the validity of this Agreement or any party hereof or prejudice
the rights of the other party thereafter to enforce each and ever such
provision. No failure or delay by any party in exercising any right, power or
privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or
partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the
exercise of any other right, power or privilege. 

     

    - 13 - 

     

    

    
    

         SECTION 8.15 Amendments. No provisions of this Agreement shall be
deemed amended, modified or supplemented by any Party, unless such amendment,
supplement or modification is in writing and signed by the authorized
representative of the Party against whom it is sought to enforce such amendment,
supplement or modification. 

     

         SECTION 8.16 Specific Performance. The Parties agree that the remedy at law for
any breach of this Agreement may be inadequate, and that, as between Supplier
and Buyer, any Party by whom this Agreement is enforceable shall be entitled to
seek temporary, preliminary or permanent injunctive or other equitable relief
with respect to the specific enforcement or performance of this Agreement. Such
Party may, in its sole discretion, apply to a court of competent jurisdiction
for such injunctive or other equitable relief as such court may deem just and
proper in order to enforce this Agreement as between Supplier and Buyer, or the
members of their respective Groups, or prevent any violation hereof, and, to the
extent permitted by Applicable Law, as between Supplier and Buyer, each Party
waives any objection to the imposition of such relief. 

     

         SECTION 8.17 Waiver of jury trial. Subject to Article VII, each of the Parties hereby waives to the
fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law any right it may have to a trial by
jury with respect to any court proceeding directly or indirectly arising out of
and permitted under or in connection with this Agreement or the transactions
contemplated hereby. Each of the Parties hereby (a) certifies that no
representative, agent or attorney of any other party has represented, expressly
or otherwise, that such other party would not, in the event of litigation, seek
to enforce the foregoing waiver and (b) acknowledges that it has been induced to
enter into this agreement and the transactions contemplated by this agreement,
as applicable, by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in
this Section 8.17.
