PROXY STATEMENT
________________

The accompanying proxy is solicited by the Board of Directors of Vishay Precision Group, Inc. for use at the 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be held on Wednesday, May 24, 2023 at 9:00 a.m., local time. The meeting will be held in a virtual format via the Internet.

ABOUT THE MEETING

Why are we holding the 2023 Annual Meeting?

As a matter of good corporate practice, and in compliance with applicable corporate law and the rules of the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE"), we hold a meeting of stockholders annually. This year’s meeting will be held on May 24, 2023. There will be at least five items of business that must be voted on by our stockholders at the meeting, and our Board of Directors (the “Board”) is seeking your proxy to vote on these items. This proxy statement contains important information about Vishay Precision Group, Inc. and the matters that will be voted on at the meeting. Please read these materials carefully so that you have the information you need to make informed decisions. Throughout this proxy statement, we will refer to ourselves as “Vishay Precision Group, Inc.,” “VPG,” “we,” “our,” or the “Company.”

Why did I receive a notice in the mail regarding the Internet availability of proxy materials instead of a full set of proxy materials?

In accordance with rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), we may furnish proxy materials, including this proxy statement and our 2022 Annual Report to Stockholders, to our stockholders by providing access to such documents on the Internet instead of mailing printed copies. Most stockholders will not receive printed copies of the proxy materials unless they request them. Instead, the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the “Notice”), which is being mailed to our stockholders on or about April 14, 2023, will instruct you as to how you may access and review all of the proxy materials on the Internet. The Notice also instructs you as to how you may submit your proxy on the Internet. If you would like to receive a paper or email copy of our proxy materials, you should follow the instructions for requesting such materials in the Notice.

What is a proxy?

A proxy is your legal designation of another person to vote the shares of stock that you own. The person you designate to vote your shares is also called a proxy. When you submit a proxy, the people named on the proxy card are required to vote your shares at the annual meeting in the manner you have instructed.

What is the record date and why is it important?

The record date is the date used by our Board to determine which stockholders are entitled to receive notice of, and vote on the items presented at, the annual meeting. Our Board established March 27, 2023 as the record date for the 2023 Annual Meeting.

What is the difference between “Stockholders of Record” and “Beneficial Owners”?

If your shares are registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, you are considered to be the stockholder of record of those shares. The Notice or this proxy statement, annual report and proxy card have been sent directly to you by the Company.

If your shares are held in a stock brokerage account or by a bank or other nominee, you are considered the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name.” The Notice or this proxy statement, the annual report, and voting instruction form have been forwarded to you by your broker, bank, or nominee, who is considered, with respect to those shares, the stockholder of record. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker, bank, or nominee how to vote your shares by using the voting instruction card included in the mailing or by following their instructions for voting.

Who can attend the meeting?

All stockholders as of the record date, or their duly appointed proxies, are invited to attend the meeting. The meeting will be held in a virtual format via the Internet. Stockholders may participate in, and may vote and ask questions at, the annual meeting by visiting the following website: www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/VPG2023. To participate in or vote or ask questions at the annual meeting, you will need the 16-digit control number included on your Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, on your proxy card or on the instructions that accompanied your proxy materials.

What proposals will I be voting on and how does the Board of Directors recommend I vote?

The Board’s recommendations are set forth together with the description of each proposal in this proxy statement. In summary, the Board recommends a vote:

•FOR the election of eight directors to hold office for terms of one year or until their successors are duly elected and qualified (see Proposal One);

•FOR the ratification of the appointment of Brightman Almagor Zohar & Co., a firm in the Deloitte Global Network, as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2023 (see Proposal Two);

•FOR the approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation for our named executive officers (see Proposal Three);

•FOR the approval, on an advisory basis, of every year as the frequency with which stockholders are provided an advisory vote on executive compensation (see Proposal Four);

•FOR the amendment to our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (“Certificate of Incorporation”) (see Proposal Five); and

•for or against any other matters that come before the 2023 Annual Meeting, as the proxy holders deem advisable.

Does VPG have more than one class of stock outstanding?

We have two classes of stock outstanding, common stock and Class B common stock. On the record date, there were 12,576,178 shares of common stock and 1,022,887 shares of Class B common stock outstanding and entitled to vote.

What are the voting rights of each class of stock?

Each share of common stock will be entitled to one vote and each share of Class B common stock will be entitled to 10 votes with respect to each matter to be voted on at the annual meeting.

A list of stockholders entitled to vote at the annual meeting will be available for examination by VPG’s stockholders during ordinary business hours for a period of ten days prior to the annual meeting at our headquarters, 3 Great Valley Parkway, Suite 150, Malvern, Pennsylvania 19355. A stockholder list will also be available for examination at the annual meeting.

What constitutes a quorum?

A quorum is the minimum number of votes required to be present at the annual meeting to conduct business. As set forth in VPG’s by-laws, the holders of a majority of the votes represented by the outstanding shares of common stock and Class B common stock, voting together as a single class, present virtually, or represented by proxy, will constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the annual meeting.

What vote is required to approve each proposal?

Except with respect to Proposal Five, which is discussed in more detail below, on each matter to be voted on at the 2023 Annual Meeting, the holders of common stock and Class B common stock will vote together as a single class. Assuming a quorum is present, the vote required and method of calculation for the proposals to be considered at the annual meeting are as follows:

•Proposal One. The election of eight directors to hold office for terms of one year, or until their successors are duly elected and qualified. Directors will be elected by a plurality of the votes cast, which means that the eight nominees receiving the most "FOR" votes will be elected.

•Proposal Two. The ratification of the appointment of our independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal year 2023 requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast on Proposal Two.

•Proposal Three. The advisory approval of our executive compensation requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast on Proposal Three.

•Proposal Four. For the advisory approval regarding the frequency of stockholder advisory votes on executive compensation the option of every “One Year,” “Two Years” or “Three Years” that receives the highest number of votes cast by stockholders will be considered the frequency for the advisory vote on executive compensation that is preferred by our stockholders. The Board will consider our stockholders’ preference as reflected in the vote on this Proposal Four in determining how frequently the advisory vote on executive compensation occurs in the future.

•Proposal Five. We believe that the approval of an amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to limit the liability of certain officers as permitted pursuant to 2022 amendments to the Delaware General Corporation Law regarding officer exculpation requires the affirmative vote of holders of shares of common stock and Class B common stock entitled to cast a majority of the votes entitled to be cast by the holders of all outstanding shares of common stock and Class B common stock, voting together as a single class. However, for the approval of this Proposal Five, we will nonetheless require the following three affirmative votes of: (i) the holders of shares of common stock and Class B common stock entitled to cast a majority of the votes entitled to be cast by the holders of all outstanding shares of common stock and Class B common stock, voting together as a single class; (ii) the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock, voting as a separate class; and (iii) the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Class B common stock, voting as a separate class.

•Other Matters. Aside from the five proposals above, we are not aware of any other matter to be presented at the 2023 Annual Meeting.

How are abstentions, broker non-votes and withholding of authority considered?

Shares represented by proxies that are properly marked “abstain” will be counted for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum at the 2023 Annual Meeting. Abstentions will have no effect on the election of directors under Proposal One or on the vote under Proposal Two, Proposal Three or Proposal Four. Abstentions will be counted as votes against Proposal Five.

Brokers holding shares for beneficial owners in street name must vote those shares according to specific instructions they receive from the beneficial owners. If instructions are not received, brokers may only vote the shares, in their discretion, on matters for which they are not precluded from exercising their discretion by the rules of the NYSE. Under the NYSE rules, a broker is permitted to vote shares on routine matters, which do not include the election of directors or the approval, on an advisory basis, of a resolution approving our executive compensation, the approval, on an advisory basis, regarding the frequency of stockholder advisory votes on executive compensation or the approval of an amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation. Accordingly, brokers may not vote in their discretion only on any of Proposal One, Proposal Three, Proposal Four or Proposal Five. For your vote to be counted with respect to any Proposal, you will need to communicate your voting instructions to your bank, broker or other holder of record before the date of the 2023 Annual Meeting.

A broker “non-vote” occurs when a broker holding shares for a beneficial owner does not vote on a particular proposal because the broker does not have discretionary voting power with respect to that item and has not received instructions from the beneficial owner. Broker non-votes will be counted in determining whether there is a quorum

at the annual meeting but will not be regarded as votes cast. Broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the vote on Proposal One or on the vote under Proposals Two, Three and Four inasmuch as broker non-votes are not counted as votes cast with respect to any matter on which the broker has expressly not voted. Because Proposal Five will be determined by a majority in three separate votes of the Company’s outstanding shares entitled to vote, broker-non-votes will have the effect of votes against Proposal Five.

A stockholder’s withholding of authority to vote for a director nominee will not be counted as a vote and has no legal effect.

How do I vote my shares? Can I vote electronically?

If you are a stockholder of record of our common stock as of the record date, there are four ways to vote:

•On the Internet. You can vote over the Internet at www.proxyvote.com, 24 hours a day, seven days a week, by following the instructions on your proxy card. You will need the 16-digit control number included on your proxy card.

•Over the Phone. You can vote using a touch-tone telephone by calling 1-800-690-6903, 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and following the instructions on your proxy card.

•By Mail. If you requested a copy of our proxy materials by mail, you may complete, sign and mail your enclosed proxy card to Vote Processing, c/o Broadridge Financial Solutions, 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, NY 11717.

•Virtually, during the meeting. You may vote at the annual meeting.

The shares represented by your proxy, whether voted using the Internet, by phone, or mail, will be voted as directed with respect to each of the proposals set forth in the proxy statement, OR, if no direction is indicated by your proxy for a proposal, in accordance with the recommendation of the Board.

You may either vote “for all” or “withhold” your vote for the election of the director nominees under Proposal One, or you may vote for only some of the nominees. You may vote “for,” “against,” or “abstain” on Proposal Two, Proposal Three and Proposal Five. You may vote “One Year,” “Two Years,” “Three Years” or “abstain” on Proposal Four.

If your shares are held in a stock brokerage account or by a bank or other nominee, you must follow the instructions provided by your broker, bank, or nominee on how to revoke your proxy.

Whether or not you plan to attend the meeting, we strongly encourage you to vote by proxy prior to the meeting.

Can I change my vote after I return my proxy card?

Yes. You may revoke your proxy at any time before it is voted at the 2023 Annual Meeting. In order to revoke your proxy, you may either:

•sign, and timely return, another proxy card bearing a later date;

•provide written notice of the revocation to VPG’s Corporate Secretary; or

•attend the annual meeting and vote during the meeting.

If your shares are held in a stock brokerage account or by a bank or other nominee, you must follow the instructions provided by your broker, bank, or nominee on how to revoke your proxy.

What will happen if I provide my proxy but do not vote on one or more proposals?

If you are a stockholder of record, you should provide voting instructions for all proposals appearing on the proxy card. The persons named as proxies on the enclosed proxy card will vote your shares according to your instructions.

However, if you fail to provide instructions on how you want your shares to be voted, properly signed and dated proxies will be voted in accordance with the recommendation of the Board.

If you hold your shares in “street name,” you should provide voting instructions for all proposals appearing on the proxy card to your broker, bank, or other holder of record. If you do not provide voting instructions for all proposals, your broker, bank, or other holder of record might not be authorized to vote your shares on certain matters, in which event they will be recorded as “broker non-votes.” See the discussion under the heading “How are abstentions, broker non-votes and withholding of authority considered?” above.

What will happen if I do not provide my proxy?

If you are a stockholder of record, your shares will not be voted unless you attend the 2023 Annual Meeting and vote your shares during the meeting.

If you are the beneficial owner of shares held in street name, your broker, bank, or other holder of record might not be authorized to vote your shares on certain matters and they will be recorded as “broker non-votes.” See the discussion under the heading “How are abstentions, broker non-votes and withholding of authority considered?” above.

Who paid to send me the proxy materials?

The cost of production and mailing of proxy materials, and the solicitation of proxies, is borne by VPG. The Board may use the services of VPG’s directors, officers and other regular employees to solicit proxies personally or by telephone. Arrangements will be made with brokerage houses and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries to forward solicitation material to the beneficial owners of the shares held of record by such fiduciaries, and VPG will reimburse them for the reasonable expenses incurred by them in so doing.

Who is assuming the expense of the proxy solicitation?

VPG engaged Alliance Advisors, LLC to assist with the solicitation of proxies and provide related advice and informational support for a services fee and reimbursement of customary disbursements, the total of which is not expected to exceed $10,000.

Are there any stockholders who own more than 5% of VPG’s shares or voting power?

According to filings made with the SEC, Dimensional Fund Advisors LP, Renaissance Technology LLC, BlackRock, Inc. and Harvey Partners, LLC each own greater than 5% of VPG’s outstanding common stock.

Ruta Zandman, the widow of the late founder of our technology, Dr. Felix Zandman, Ziv Shoshani (Mrs. Ruta Zandman’s nephew and our Chief Executive Officer and a member of our Board of Directors) and Marc Zandman (Dr. Felix Zandman's son and a member of our Board of Directors) are co-trustees of a family trust which holds 3,010 shares of common stock and 615,487 shares of Class B common stock, representing less than 1% of our common stock and approximately 60% of our class B common stock, respectively, and, together, 27.0% of the aggregate voting power of the outstanding capital stock of the Company. Additionally, pursuant to a voting agreement with certain third parties, Mrs. Zandman has the power to direct the voting of 171,609 shares of Class B common stock held by such third parties. Therefore, Ruta Zandman controls, solely or on a shared basis with Marc Zandman and Ziv Shoshani, approximately 34.5% of the total voting power of our capital stock; Marc Zandman controls, solely or on a shared basis with Ruta Zandman and Ziv Shoshani, approximately 27.1% of the total voting power of our capital stock; and Ziv Shoshani controls, solely or on a shared basis with Ruta Zandman and Marc Zandman, approximately 27.9% of the total voting power of our capital stock. Each of Ruta Zandman, Marc Zandman, Ziv Shoshani and the family trust intend to vote FOR ALL nominees, FOR Proposal Two, FOR Proposal Three, ONE YEAR for Proposal Four and FOR Proposal Five. Pursuant to an agreement relating to the family trust, each of them is required to cause shares controlled by the trust to be voted in support of the election of Messrs. Shoshani and Zandman as directors of the Company.

See “Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management” for more information. Except as described above, none of these 5% or greater stockholders have indicated their intentions to VPG regarding matters to be voted on at the annual meeting.

GOVERNANCE OF THE COMPANY

How is VPG governed?

At VPG, day-to-day business activities are carried out by our employees under the direction and supervision of Ziv Shoshani, our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”). The Board oversees these activities. In doing so, each director is required to apply his or her business judgment in the best interests of VPG and its stockholders. The Board’s primary responsibilities include:

•Review of our performance, strategies, and major decisions;

•Oversight of our compliance with legal and regulatory requirements and the integrity of our financial statements;

•Oversight of management, including review of the CEO’s performance and succession planning for key management roles; and

•Oversight of compensation for the CEO, key executives and the Board, as well as oversight of compensation policies and programs for all employees.

Additional description of the Board’s responsibilities is included in our Corporate Governance Principles document, which is available to stockholders on our website and in print upon request, as described in this proxy statement.

Where can I find more information about the corporate governance practices of VPG?

Various corporate governance related documents are available on our website, including:

•Corporate Governance Principles

•Code of Business Conduct and Ethics

•Code of Ethics Applicable to the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and Principal Accounting Officer or Controller

•Policy Regarding Qualifications of Directors

•Audit Committee Charter

•Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Charter

•Compensation Committee Charter

To view these documents, access our Investor Relations page at https://ir.vpgsensors.com and click on “Governance” and then "Governance Documents." Any of these documents can be obtained in print by any stockholder upon written request to VPG’s investor relations department.

We intend to post any amendments to, or any waivers from, a provision of our Code of Ethics Applicable to the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and Principal Accounting Officer or Controller on our website.

What is the composition of our Board of Directors?

VPG has a single class of directors, all of whom are elected annually. The number of directors is fixed by the Board, subject to a maximum of nine directors as provided in the Company’s charter documents. There are currently eight members of the Board. As described in Proposal One, all of our directors are nominated to serve for a term expiring at the annual meeting of stockholders in 2024.

Biographical information on each of the directors is included in Proposal One.

How does the Board determine which directors are considered independent?

The Board has determined that, to be considered independent, an outside director may not have a direct or indirect material relationship with VPG. A material relationship is one which impairs or inhibits, or has the potential to impair or inhibit, a director’s exercise of critical and disinterested judgment on behalf of VPG and its stockholders. The materiality standard applied by the Board includes, but is not limited to, the disqualifying relationships set forth in the governance listing standards of the NYSE.

Accordingly, the Board has concluded that Janet Clarke, Wesley Cummins, Sejal Shah Gulati, Bruce Lerner, Saul Reibstein and Timothy Talbert qualify as independent directors. The Audit Committee, the Nominating and

Corporate Governance Committee, and the Compensation Committee of the Board are composed entirely of independent directors.

How often did the Board meet during 2022?

The Board met eight times during 2022. In 2022, each director attended at least 75% of the aggregate number of meetings of the Board of Directors and any Committee on which such director served during their period of Board service. All of our eight directors attended the 2022 annual meeting of stockholders. It is the policy of the Board that directors are expected to attend the 2023 Annual Meeting and all future annual meetings of stockholders.

What is the role of the Board’s Committees?

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee - The functions of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee include identifying individuals qualified to become members of the Board; selecting and recommending that the Board approve the director nominees for the next annual meeting of stockholders; developing and recommending to the Board a set of corporate governance principles for VPG; overseeing the evaluation of the Board and the management of VPG; administering VPG’s Related Party Transactions Policy; and performing other related functions specified in the Committee’s charter. A copy of the Committee’s charter is available to stockholders on our website and in print upon request.

The chair of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is designated under our Corporate Governance Principles to preside at the executive sessions of the Board’s non-management directors. The current chair of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is Mr. Talbert.

Audit Committee - The functions of the Audit Committee include overseeing VPG’s accounting and financial reporting processes; overseeing the audits of our consolidated financial statements and the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting; assisting the Board in its oversight of the integrity of our financial statements, our compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, the independence and qualifications of our independent registered public accounting firm, and the performance of our internal audit function and independent registered public accounting firm; and performing other related functions specified in the Committee’s charter. The Audit Committee consists of three non-management directors, each of whom satisfies the independence requirements of the rules of the SEC and the governance listing requirements of the NYSE. All of the members of the Committee also satisfy the financial literacy requirements of the NYSE and the Board has determined that Mr. Reibstein, the chair of the Committee, qualifies as an audit committee financial expert under the rules of the SEC. A copy of the Committee’s charter is available to stockholders on our website and in print upon request.

Compensation Committee - The functions of the Compensation Committee include evaluating the performance of the Company’s executive officers and, based on this evaluation, determining and approving the compensation of the executive officers; making recommendations to the Board with respect to, and administering, our incentive compensation plans and equity based compensation plans; and performing other related functions specified in the Committee’s charter. The Compensation Committee is authorized, within the limits of the Company’s 2022 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2022 Stock Incentive Plan”), to determine the individuals who are to receive awards; the type of awards, including stock, stock options, restricted stock and restricted stock units (“RSUs”), and the vesting requirements with respect to those awards, and to administer and interpret the 2022 Stock Incentive Plan. Ms. Clarke is the chair of this Committee. A copy of the Committee’s charter is available to stockholders on our website and in print upon request.

Board Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight

The Board believes that it is important to retain the flexibility to combine or separate the responsibilities of the offices of Chairman of the Board and CEO, as may be in the best interests of the Company from time to time.

The significant experience of Mr. Reibstein, our Chairman, with the business of the Company and its Board, including his service as chair of the Audit Committee, uniquely qualifies him to serve as the Board’s non-executive Chairman. At the same time, the active membership of our CEO, Mr. Ziv Shoshani, assures our Board of the benefit of his comprehensive knowledge of the Company’s business, day-to-day operations, industry and competitive challenges.

Management continually monitors the material risks facing the Company, including financial risk, strategic risk, operational risk, corporate governance risk, and legal and compliance risk. The Board is responsible for exercising

oversight of management’s identification and management of, and planning for, those risks. Although the Board is ultimately responsible for risk oversight at the Company, the Board has delegated to certain Committees oversight responsibility for those risks that are directly related to their respective areas of focus.

•The Audit Committee reviews our policies and guidelines with respect to risk assessment and risk management, including our major financial risk exposures, and oversees the steps management has taken to monitor and control those exposures.

•The Compensation Committee considers risk issues when establishing and administering our compensation programs for executive officers and other key personnel.

•The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee oversees corporate governance risks, including matters relating to the composition and organization of the Board and recommends to the Board how its effectiveness can be improved by changes in its composition and organization.

Each of these Committees routinely reports to the Board on the management of these specific risk areas. To permit the Board and its Committees to perform their respective risk oversight roles, individual members of management who supervise the Company’s risk management report directly to the Board or the relevant committee of the Board responsible for overseeing the management of specific risks, as applicable. For this purpose, management has a high degree of access and communication with the Board and its Committees.

The Board believes that open and constructive communication between management and the Board is essential for effective risk management and oversight. Members of the Company’s senior management regularly attend Board and committee meetings and are available to address any questions or concerns raised on matters related to risk management. The Board and its Committees exercise their risk oversight function by carefully evaluating the reports they receive from management and by making inquiries of management with respect to areas of particular interest to the Board.

How does the Board select nominees for the Board?

In selecting candidates for nomination at the annual meeting of our stockholders, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee begins by determining whether the incumbent directors whose terms expire at the meeting desire, and are qualified, to continue their service on the Board. We are of the view that the repeated service of qualified incumbents promotes stability and continuity in the boardroom, giving us the benefit of the familiarity and insight into our affairs that our directors have accumulated during their tenure and contributing to the Board’s ability to work as a collective body. Accordingly, it is the policy of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, absent special circumstances, to nominate qualified incumbent directors who continue to satisfy the Committee’s criteria for membership on the Board; who the Committee believes will continue to make important contributions to the Board; and who consent to stand for re-election and, if re-elected, to continue their service on the Board. If there are Board positions for which the Committee will not be re-nominating a qualified incumbent, the Committee will solicit recommendations for nominees from persons who the Committee believes are likely to be familiar with qualified candidates, including members of the Board and senior management.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may also engage a search firm to assist in identifying qualified candidates. If such a search firm is engaged, the Committee sets the fees and scope of engagement. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will review and evaluate each candidate who it believes merits serious consideration, taking into account all available information concerning the candidate, the qualifications for Board membership established by the Committee, the existing composition and mix of talent and expertise on the Board and other factors that it deems relevant. In conducting its review and evaluation, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may solicit the views of management and other members of the Board and may, if deemed helpful, conduct interviews of proposed candidates. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will evaluate candidates recommended by stockholders in the same manner as candidates recommended by other persons, except that the Committee may consider, as one of the factors in its evaluation of stockholder-recommended candidates, the size and duration of the interest of the recommending stockholder or stockholder group in the equity of VPG and whether the stockholders intend to continue holding that interest through the annual meeting date.

What qualifications must a director have?

Under a policy formulated by our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, we generally require that all candidates for director:

•be persons of integrity and sound ethical character;

•be able to represent all stockholders fairly;

•have no interests that materially conflict with those of VPG and its stockholders;

•have demonstrated professional achievement;

•have meaningful management, advisory or policy making experience;

•have a general appreciation of the major business issues facing VPG; and

•have adequate time to devote to serve on the Board.

A limited exception to some of these requirements, other than the requirements of integrity and ethics and the absence of material conflict, may be made for a holder of substantial voting power. Directors may not stand for re-election after the age of 75 unless the Board makes an affirmative determination that, because of the importance and value of the continued service of a director, the retirement policy should be waived, except that no director may stand for re-election after age 85. This policy does not apply to any person who controls more than 20% of the voting power of the Company. Mr. Talbert has reached age 75, and the Board has made an affirmative determination to waive the retirement policy with respect to Mr. Talbert for his nomination for re-election at the 2023 Annual Meeting. Mr. Reibstein will reach age 75 prior to the 2023 Annual Meeting, and the Board has made an affirmative determination to waive the retirement policy with respect to Mr. Reibstein for his nomination for re-election at the 2023 Annual Meeting. We also require that a majority of directors be independent; at least three of the directors have the financial literacy necessary for service on the audit committee and at least one of these directors qualifies as an audit committee financial expert; at least some of the independent directors have served as senior executives of public or substantial private companies; and at least some of the independent directors have general familiarity with the major industries in which we operate. Additionally, while the Company does not have a formal policy with respect to the consideration of diversity in identifying director candidates, the benefits of board

diversity are considered in the nominations process, including diversity of background and experience. A copy of the Company’s Policy Regarding Qualifications of Directors is available to stockholders on our website.

Can I recommend a nominee for director?

Yes. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider recommendations for director nominations submitted by stockholders entitled to vote generally in the election of directors. Submissions must be made in accordance with the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee’s procedures, as outlined herein and set forth in materials posted on our website. For each annual meeting of our stockholders, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will accept for consideration only one recommendation per stockholder or affiliated group of stockholders. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will only consider candidates who satisfy our minimum qualifications for director, as summarized in this proxy statement and as set forth in materials posted on our website. Stockholders should be aware, as discussed herein, that it is our general policy to re-nominate qualified incumbent directors and that, absent special circumstances, the Committee will not nominate other candidates when a qualified incumbent director consents to stand for re-election.

A stockholder wishing to recommend to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee a candidate for election as director must submit the recommendation in writing, addressed to the Committee, care of our Corporate Secretary, at Vishay Precision Group, Inc., 3 Great Valley Parkway, Suite 150, Malvern, PA 19355. Submissions must be made by mail, courier, or personal delivery. E-mailed submissions will not be considered. Submissions recommending candidates for election at an annual meeting of stockholders must generally be received no later than 120 calendar days prior to the first anniversary of the date of the proxy statement for the prior annual meeting of stockholders. However, in the event that the date of an annual meeting of stockholders is more than 30 days following the first anniversary date of the annual meeting of stockholders for the prior year, the submission must be made a reasonable time in advance of the mailing of our proxy statement for the current year. Each nominating recommendation must be accompanied by the information called for by our “Procedures for Securityholders’ Submission of Nominating Recommendations,” which is available upon request. This includes specified information concerning the stockholder or group of stockholders making the recommendation and the proposed nominee, any relationships between the recommending stockholder or stockholders and the proposed nominee and the qualifications of the proposed nominee to serve as director. The recommendation must also be accompanied by the consent of the proposed nominee to serve if nominated and elected and the agreement of the nominee to be contacted by the Committee, if the Committee decides in its discretion to do so.

In addition to being entitled to make a recommendation that the Committee nominate a candidate for election as a director, stockholders are also entitled to nominate candidates themselves for election to the Board at a meeting of stockholders, by providing the necessary information by the applicable deadlines. See the discussion under the heading “Stockholder Proposals and Nominations for the 2024 Annual Meeting” below.

How do stockholders and others communicate with the Board?

VPG stockholders may communicate with the Board, any Committee of the Board or any individual director, and any interested party may communicate with the non-management directors of the Board as a group, by delivering such communications either in writing addressed to our Corporate Secretary at Vishay Precision Group, Inc., 3 Great Valley Parkway, Suite 150, Malvern, PA 19355; or by e-mail to boardofdirectors@vpgsensors.com. Communications should not exceed 1,000 words.

All communications must be accompanied by the following information: (i) if the person submitting the communication is a securityholder, a statement of the type and amount of the securities of VPG that the person holds; (ii) if the person submitting the communication is not a securityholder and is submitting the communication to the non-management directors as an interested party, the nature of the person’s interest in VPG; (iii) any special interest, meaning an interest not in the capacity as a stockholder of VPG, of the person in the subject matter of the communication; and (iv) the address, telephone number and e-mail address, if any, of the person submitting the communication. Communications addressed to directors may, at the direction of the directors, be shared with VPG’s management.

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

Under the Company's 2017 Non-Employee Director Compensation Plan (as amended, the “NEDC Plan”), each non-employee director receives an annual retainer fee of $40,000 for serving on the Board, excluding the Chairman, who receives an annual retainer fee of $90,000 for his service. In addition, under the NEDC Plan, the chair of the Audit Committee receives an annual retainer of $15,000, and the chairs of the Compensation Committee and the Nominating and Governance Committee each receive an annual retainer of $10,000 for their services as chair of their respective committees. Under the NEDC Plan, the retainer fees for the independent directors are paid in equal quarterly installments in advance and beginning with a payment due on the date of the annual meeting. Such annual retainer fees are pro-rated for a partial year of service by a non-employee director elected to the board between annual meetings.

Under the NEDC Plan, each of our non-employee directors was granted RSUs worth $70,000 effective immediately upon their election at the 2022 annual meeting. The number of RSUs granted is based on the average closing price of our common stock on the New York Stock Exchange for the five consecutive trading days immediately preceding the date of grant. These grants will vest on the earlier of the next annual meeting date or May 26, 2023 (the first anniversary of their grant date), subject to each non-employee director's continued service on the board. The grant-date fair value of RSUs is recognized over the vesting period. For directors appointed between annual meetings, the amount of the stock grant is pro-rated for a partial year of service by the non-employee director and vests on the date of the first annual meeting after the date of grant subject to the director’s continued service on the board.

Our director who is also an employee of VPG (our Chief Executive Officer) did not receive any additional compensation for his service as a director. See the discussion herein under the heading “Executive Compensation.”

REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE

Management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, for assessing the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, and for preparing our consolidated financial statements. Our independent registered public accounting firm is responsible for, among other things, performing an independent audit of our consolidated financial statements in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and issuing a report thereon. It is the responsibility of the Audit Committee to monitor and oversee these processes.

In fulfilling its oversight duties, the Audit Committee reviewed and discussed with management and our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, Brightman Almagor Zohar & Co., a firm in the Deloitte global network ("Brightman Almagor Zohar & Co."), (a) the audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, (b) the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, and (c) the other matters required to be discussed under the applicable requirements of the PCAOB and the SEC. These required communications addressed, among other topics, the independent registered public accounting firm’s responsibility under the standards of the PCAOB; critical accounting policies and practices; judgments and accounting estimates; alternative accounting treatments; any significant audit adjustments; any disagreements or difficulties encountered in performing the audit; and other material communications between the independent registered public accounting firm and management. The Audit Committee received from the independent auditors written disclosures regarding the auditor’s independence required by PCAOB Ethics and Independence Rule 3526, Communication with Audit Committees Concerning Independence, and has discussed with the independent auditors, the independent auditor’s independence. The Audit Committee also considered the compatibility of non-audit services provided to VPG by Brightman Almagor Zohar & Co., the member firms of Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu Limited and their related entities, and the fees and costs billed or to be billed for these services, with the maintenance of the independent registered public accounting firm’s independence. The Committee has concluded that the provision of the non-audit services by Brightman Almagor Zohar & Co., the member firms of Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu Limited and their related entities in 2022 did not impair the independent registered public accounting firm’s independence. Under the Audit and Non-Audit Services Pre-Approval Policy as adopted by the Audit Committee, the Audit Committee must pre-approve all audit and non-audit services provided to VPG by the independent registered public accounting firm. The policy sets forth the procedures and conditions for pre-approval of these services. All of the audit and non-audit services provided by the independent registered public accounting firm since adoption of the Audit and Non-Audit Services Pre-Approval Policy were pre-approved by the Committee in accordance with such policy.

Based upon this review and discussions with management and the independent registered public accounting firm, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that our audited financial statements be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Audit Committee has also appointed Brightman Almagor Zohar & Co. as our independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal year 2023, but the Committee has decided to submit the appointment for ratification by stockholders (see Proposal Two).

Respectfully submitted,

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors

Saul Reibstein, Chair
Janet Clarke

Timothy Talbert

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in any of our previous or future filings under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act that might incorporate this proxy statement in such filings with the SEC, in whole or in part, the above report shall not be deemed to be “soliciting material” or “filed” with the SEC and shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into any such filing.

PROPOSAL TWO

RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF

INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Audit Committee of the Board is responsible for the selection of our independent registered public accounting firm. The Committee has determined to reappoint the public accounting firm of Brightman Almagor Zohar & Co., a firm in the Deloitte global network ("Brightman Almagor Zohar & Co."), as the independent registered public accounting firm to audit our financial statements for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023, as well as to audit the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Brightman Almagor Zohar & Co. has served as our independent registered public accounting firm since 2019. Although stockholder approval for the appointment of the independent registered public accounting firm is not required, we are submitting the selection of the independent registered public accounting firm to stockholders for their ratification.

Representatives of Brightman Almagor Zohar & Co. are expected to be present at the 2023 Annual Meeting and will have an opportunity to make a statement if they so desire and will be available to respond to appropriate questions from stockholders.

Under the Audit and Non-Audit Services Pre-Approval Policy as adopted by the Audit Committee, the Audit Committee must pre-approve all audit and non-audit services provided to VPG by the independent registered public accounting firm. The policy sets forth the procedures and conditions for pre-approval of these services. The Audit Committee has pre-approved generally the engagement of the independent registered public accounting firm for services relating to our filings with the SEC (including comfort letters, comment letters and consents for securities offerings); acquisition or disposition related diligence activities; internal control review and compliance; interpretation and compliance with accounting and accounting-related disclosure rules and standards; certain attest services; domestic and international tax planning and compliance; and risk management.

The following table sets forth the aggregate fees billed by Brightman Almagor Zohar & Co., the member firms of Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu Limited and their related entities in 2022 and 2021. These fees are categorized as audit fees, audit-related fees, tax fees, and all other fees. The nature of the services provided in each category is described following the table.


	2022		2021
Audit fees	$	1,765,559	$	1,626,429
Audit-related fees	—		—
Tax fees	66,662		2,000
All other fees	25,102		6,040
Total fees	$	1,857,323	$	1,634,469
____________________

Audit fees. These fees generally consist of professional services rendered for the audits of the consolidated financial statements of VPG, quarterly reviews, statutory audits, issuance of consents, and assistance with and review of documents filed with the SEC.

Audit-related fees. These fees generally consist of assurance and other services related to the performance of the audit or review of VPG’s financial statements or that are traditionally performed by the independent registered public accounting firm, and consultations concerning financial accounting and reporting standards.

Tax fees. These fees relate primarily to tax compliance, including review of corporate tax returns, assistance with tax audits, review of the tax treatment for certain expenses, and tax-related due diligence. They also include fees for state and local tax planning and consultations with respect to various domestic and international tax matters.

All other fees. These fees generally consist of reviews for compliance with various government regulations, risk management and treasury reviews, assessments and audits of various contractual arrangements, consulting services and subscription to online accounting research tools.

In 2022, VPG did not make use of the rule that waives pre-approval requirements for non-audit services in certain cases if the fees for these services constitute less than 5% of the total fees paid to the independent registered public accounting firm during the year.

The Board of Directors unanimously recommends that you vote “FOR” the ratification of the appointment of Brightman Almagor Zohar & Co. as our independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2023.

Copies of these reports are also required to be supplied to VPG. VPG believes, based solely on a review of the copies of such reports received, that our directors and executive officers and persons who beneficially own more than ten percent of our common stock complied with all applicable Section 16(a) reporting requirements during the year ended December 31, 2022, except that Mr. Cummins filed one late Form 4 reporting a purchase of shares due to administrative error.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

No member of the Compensation Committee was at any time during 2022 an officer or employee of VPG or any of the Company’s subsidiaries nor was any such person a former officer of VPG or any of the Company’s subsidiaries. In addition, no Compensation Committee member is an executive officer of another entity at which one of the Company’s executive officers serves on the board of directors.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

This Compensation Discussion and Analysis describes the Company’s executive compensation program and explains how the Compensation Committee made compensation decisions for our Named Executive Officers (the “NEOs”) who are identified below:



Named Executive Officer			Position
Ziv Shoshani			President and Chief Executive Officer
William M. Clancy			Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer
Amir Tal			Senior Vice President and Chief Accounting Officer

Compensation Philosophy and Objectives

Our executive compensation program is designed to assist us in recruiting, retaining and motivating our NEOs and providing our NEOs with an appropriate level of compensation, commensurate with their contributions to the Company. The Compensation Committee believes that the elements of our executive compensation program, as well as the mix of these elements in relation to total compensation, reward sound management decisions and do not encourage undue risk taking to enhance short-term profitability at the expense of the long-term financial health of the Company. The Compensation Committee seeks to mitigate any compensation-related risk by:

•providing a meaningful portion of total compensation in the form of equity incentives that are earned over multiple years (to encourage a long-term focus); and

•capping annual cash bonuses for our NEOs at 200% of base salary for Mr. Shoshani, at 105% of base salary for Mr. Clancy, and at 75% for Mr. Tal (to provide appropriate balance between short- and long-term objectives).

Please see the discussion below under the headings “Performance Bonus” and “Equity Compensation” for further detail regarding performance bonus and long-term equity incentive targets.

Considerations for Setting 2022 Compensation

The Compensation Committee considered a number factors when setting each NEO’s compensation, including competitive market data derived from our peer group, individual and Company performance, and the NEO’s role and responsibilities. The Compensation Committee reviewed competitive market data that was derived from our 2022 compensation peer group, which is composed of the following companies


Badger Meter, Inc.			Mercury Systems, Inc.
CSW Industrials, Inc.			ONTO Innovation Inc.
CTS Corp.			Hurco Companies, Inc.
Daktronics Inc.			Luna Innovations, Inc.
Faro Technologies Inc.			Amtech Systems, Inc.
ESCO Technologies Inc.			nFlight, Inc.

The Compensation Committee did not align NEOs’ compensation to a particular benchmark level but considered pay data as one point of reference when setting NEO compensation.

Role of the Compensation Consultant

As permitted under its charter, the Compensation Committee retained Meridian Compensation Partners, LLC (“Meridian”) as its independent compensation consultant for 2022. In particular, Meridian advised the Compensation Committee on our 2020 compensation peer group and provided the Compensation Committee an assessment of the compensation of our Senior Vice President and Chief Accounting Officer against peer group practices.

The Compensation Committee determined that the work performed by Meridian did not give rise to a conflict of interest and that Meridian was independent of management. In making this determination, the Compensation Committee considered the factors outlined in the NYSE listing standards relating to compensation consultant independence, including whether the compensation consultant has provided other services to the Company, the magnitude of the projected fees payable to the compensation consultant in the context of the compensation consultant's total revenues, the absence of personal or business relationships between members of the Compensation Committee or the Company’s executive officers and the compensation consultant, and whether any member of the compensation consultant’s team owns, or otherwise has an investment or interest in, the Company’s common stock.

Compensation Components

The following are the primary components of our executive compensation program:

•Base salary;

•Annual performance bonus (payable in cash); and

•Annual long-term equity incentive compensation (payable in RSUs).

In addition to the foregoing, our NEOs are eligible to receive severance, certain perquisites and customary welfare and retirement benefits. Each of the primary components of our executive compensation program, and the methodology used to determine the amounts, and mix, of such compensation, are discussed below.

Base Salaries

Minimum base salaries for our NEOs are established in their respective employment agreements, the material terms of which are summarized below under the heading “Employment Agreements.” Each year, the Compensation Committee reviews the appropriateness of each NEO’s base salary. In determining whether to increase base salary of an NEO, the Compensation Committee considers the following factors: competitive market data derived from our peer group, individual and Company performance, and the NEO’s role and responsibilities. We believe that setting our NEOs' base salaries based on the foregoing factors helps us to retain our NEOs, while appropriately motivating them to fulfill their core responsibilities and duties.

Variations in base salary among our NEOs reflect the differences in their respective positions, duties and responsibilities.

Effective January 1, 2022, the annual base salaries for our NEOs were as follows:


	2022			2021
Executive		Base Salary			Base Salary		% increase (3)
Ziv Shoshani
President and Chief Executive Officer (1)		$	720,053		$	705,270	6.0	%
William M. Clancy
Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer		$	391,250		$	376,202	4.0	%
Amir Tal
Senior Vice President and Chief Accounting Officer (2)		$	294,010		$	265,437	15.0	%

____________________


(1)			Pursuant to Mr. Shoshani’s employment agreement, his 2022 base salary was 2,420,092 New Israeli Shekels ("NIS") and his 2021 base salary was 2,283,106 NIS. The U.S. Dollar amount shown in the table is based on the weighted average exchange rate for 2022 of 3.36099 and for 2021 of 3.23721.
(2)			Pursuant to Mr. Tal's employment agreement, his 2022 base salary was 988,165 NIS and his 2021 base salary was 859,274. The U.S. Dollar amount shown in the table is based on the weighted average exchange rate for 2022 of 3.36099 and for 2021 of 3.23721.
(3)			Percentage increase is based on local currency amounts.

Effective January 1, 2023, Mr. Shoshani received an increase in his base salary to 2,516,896 NIS, or $770,400, converted using a weighted average budgeted exchange rate for 2023 of 3.267; Mr. Clancy received an increase in

his base salary to $406,900; and Mr. Tal received an increase in his base salary to 1,027,692 NIS or $314,567, converted using a weighted average budgeted exchange rate for 2023 of 3.267.

Annual Performance Cash Bonus

Our 2022 annual performance cash bonus program was designed to incent our NEOs to achieve certain predetermined objectives set by the Compensation Committee and the Board.

The 2022 annual performance cash bonus payouts were based on achievement of two equally weighted corporate objectives: adjusted operating margin and adjusted EBITDA. The target levels of adjusted operating margin and adjusted EBITDA for 2022 were set at $48.5 million and $65.6 million, respectively.

Adjusted operating margin and adjusted EBITDA mean, respectively, operating margin and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, in each case determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and adjusted to exclude various items that are outside of our core operations, including purchase accounting inventory adjustments, COVID-19 impacts, start-up costs, restructuring and related severance costs, and foreign exchange gains and losses. The Board determined that adjusted operating margin and adjusted EBITDA for 2022 should exclude the impact of $1.6 million for purchase accounting adjustments, $0.2 million for start-up costs, $1.5 million in restructuring costs, and $0.1 million impact of government subsidies, net with costs incurred by the Company as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Additionally, adjusted EBITDA excludes the impact of $(3.6) million of foreign currency exchange rates on assets and liabilities.

These performance targets were intended to represent challenging, but reasonable, goals, the achievement of which will contribute meaningfully to long-term stockholder value creation as well as the short-term success of our business.

If less than 80% of the target for a performance goal were attained, the NEOs would not receive any portion of their performance bonus tied to such performance goal. The table below sets forth the payments that each of Messrs. Shoshani, Clancy, and Tal would have been eligible to receive (expressed as a percentage of his base salary) pursuant to our annual performance bonus plan and his employment agreement with respect to each 2022 performance objective, based upon various levels of actual performance.

Potential Performance Bonus Payments for Messrs. Shoshani, Clancy, and Tal for Each Performance Objective, in Relation to Target Performance*

*			All performance bonus payments set forth in this table are expressed as a percentage of the applicable executive officer’s base salary and represent the potential payments to our executive officers with respect to each performance objective.

The aggregate target performance bonuses for each of Messrs. Shoshani, Clancy, and Tal, pursuant to their employment agreements and taking into account all 2022 performance objectives, were 100%, 65%, and 50% of their respective base salaries. The maximum 2022 performance bonuses payable to Messrs. Shoshani, Clancy, and Tal were 200%, 105%, and 75% of their respective base salaries. We believe that the target and maximum performance bonus levels and the corresponding payouts are such that they do not encourage excessive risk-taking and represent appropriate compensation in light of each executive officer’s responsibilities.

The Board and the Compensation Committee determined that our 2022 adjusted EBITDA was $62.0 million (or 94.5% of the target) and our 2022 adjusted operating margin was $47.2 million (or 97.2% of the target). Accordingly, for the adjusted EBITDA target, Messrs. Shoshani Clancy and Tal each received a cash bonus equal to 43.1%, 29.5%, and 21.8% of their respective base salaries. For the adjusted operating margin target, Messrs. Shoshani, Clancy, and Tal each received a cash bonus equal to 46.5%, 31.0% and 23.4% of their respective base salaries.

The total of these performance bonuses for Messrs. Shoshani, Clancy and Tal is reflected under the “Non-Equity Incentive Compensation Plan” column of the Summary Compensation Table herein.

Equity Compensation

Our executive compensation program uses the grant of long-term equity awards as the primary tool for aligning the interests of our NEOs with the long-term interests of our stockholders. The NEOs’ employment agreements established the following target value of their respective annual equity grants.

•On or about January 1 of each year, each NEO receives equity awards ("Annual Equity Grant"), with an aggregate value equal to the following percentages of their base salary: 175% (with respect to Mr. Shoshani), 75% (with respect to Mr. Clancy), and 40% (with respect to Mr. Tal). The Annual Equity Grant, which is in the form of restricted stock units (“RSUs”), is sized based on the average closing price of our stock on the New York Stock Exchange for the five consecutive trading days immediately preceding January 1 of the year of grant.

•50% of the Annual Equity Grant is in the form of performance-based RSUs ("PBRSUs") which vest on January 1 of the third year following the date of grant, but only to the extent that performance criteria have been achieved and provided the executive remains continuously employed by us through such date. The performance criteria are determined by the Compensation Committee and are based on metrics set forth in the 2022 Stock Incentive Plan.

•50% of the Annual Equity Grant is in the form of time-vested RSUs which vest on January 1 of the third year following the date of grant provided the executive remains continuously employed by us through such date.

•The Annual Equity grant is subject to accelerated vesting upon a change of control of the Company, an event giving rise to a severance entitlement, death or disability.

With respect to each performance criterion, and as illustrated below, (i) 50% of the total number of PBRSUs subject to such criterion will vest if 80% of the applicable objective is met, and (ii) an additional 2.5% of the total number of PBRSUs subject to such criterion will vest for each additional full 1% (between 80% and 100%) of the applicable performance objective that is met.

2022 Annual Equity Grant Components


		Performance-Based RSUs for Each Performance Objective
Executive	Time-Vested RSUs (# of RSUs)	80% of Target (# of PBRSUs)	80—100% of Target (# of PBRSUs)
Ziv Shoshani	18,266	4,566.75	4,566.75	-	9,133.5
William M. Clancy	3,944	986	986	-	1,972
Amir Tal	1,705	426	426	-	853

Vesting of the PBRSUs is subject to the achievement over the three-year performance period ending on December 31, 2024 of two equally weighted corporate objectives: cumulative Adjusted Net Earnings and cumulative Adjusted Free Cash.

“Adjusted Net Earnings” means the Company’s net profits after taxes, including the impact of acquisitions, if any, adjusted for reconciling items as set forth in the associated years' annual reports to stockholders. “Adjusted Free Cash” means the amount of cash generated from the Company’s operations in excess of capital expenditures and net of proceeds from the sale of assets, including the impact of acquisitions, if any.

The target levels of Adjusted Net Earnings and Adjusted Free Cash over that three-year period from 2022-2024 were set at $118,292,000 and $77,663,000, respectively. The Company's achieved performance against each of these performance goals determines the vesting for fifty percent (50%) of the total number of PBRSUs granted to each

NEO. These targets are intended to represent challenging, but reasonable, goals, the achievement of which will contribute meaningfully to long-term stockholder value creation as well as the long-term success of our business.

Each executive who received a 2022 Annual Equity Grant is eligible to vest in a portion of the PBRSUs included within the 2022 Annual Equity Grant to the extent that our performance with respect to one or both of the objectives equals at least 80% of the targeted amount. If the 80% threshold target for a performance goal is not attained, the executive would not receive any portion of the PBRSUs attributable to such target and that portion of the grant would be forfeited. The table above sets forth the vesting of the PBRSUs that each executive officer would be eligible to receive (expressed as a number of shares) pursuant to his respective employment agreement with respect to each 2022 performance objective, based upon various levels of actual performance.

The Annual Equity Grants awarded to each of the NEOs in 2022 are included in the “Stock Awards” column in the Summary Compensation Table herein.

In January 2020, Mr. Shoshani, Mr. Clancy and Mr. Tal were granted PBRSUs that were subject to vesting based on two performance conditions - Adjusted Net Earnings and Adjusted Free Cash - measured over a three-year period ended December 31, 2022. The Compensation Committee determined, after reviewing the Company’s performance during this measurement period, that the Company had achieved 88.3% of the target for Free Cash and 108.7% of the target for Adjusted Net Earnings. Accordingly, for the PBRSUs granted to our NEOs in January 2020, 88.3% of the PBRSUs for the Free Cash target vested and 100% of the PBRSUs for the Adjusted Net Earnings target vested.

Employment Agreements

The Company entered into employment agreements in 2011, which have been subsequently amended, with Messrs. Shoshani and Clancy. In March 2020, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Tal. Each of the employment agreements provides for specific payment opportunities, as expressed as a percentage of the applicable employee’s respective base salary, in connection with each element of our executive compensation package discussed above under the headings “Annual Performance Cash Bonus” and “Equity Compensation.”

Upon expiration of the current applicable term, Messrs. Shoshani's, Clancy's, and Tal's employment agreements automatically renew for one additional year unless earlier terminated by the Company or by the executive officer. Each of the employment agreements provides for certain severance payments to the executive officers in the event of termination of their employment as described in greater detail under the heading “Potential Payments Upon a Termination or Change in Control.”

The employment agreements also contain customary non-solicitation and non-competition covenants, which remain in effect for 24 months following termination of employment with respect to Mr. Shoshani and for 12 months following termination of employment with respect to Messrs. Clancy and Tal. The agreements also entitle the executives to additional perquisites and other personal benefits as the Board, through its Compensation Committee, determine are reasonable and consistent with the Company’s overall compensation program.

Deferred Compensation and Pension Plans

Vishay Intertechnology maintained, among other benefit plans, a non-qualified defined benefit plan (the “Vishay Non-Qualified Retirement Plan”); a qualified defined contribution plan (the “Vishay Employee Savings Plus Plan”); and a non-qualified deferred compensation plan (the “Vishay Key Employee Wealth Accumulation Plan” or “VSH KEWAP”), for highly compensated employees, including executive officers. In anticipation of the spin-off, we formed parallel plans that provide for substantially similar benefits. In connection with the spin-off, Vishay Intertechnology caused the accounts and underlying assets and liabilities under the Vishay Intertechnology plans for our employees who were participating in those plans to be transferred to our corresponding plans or, in the case of Vishay Non-Qualified Retirement Plan and VSH KEWAP assets, from a rabbi trust established by Vishay Intertechnology to a rabbi trust that we established.

With the exception of Mr. Clancy, none of our NEOs participated in the Vishay Non-Qualified Retirement Plan. The Vishay Non-Qualified Retirement Plan was frozen effective December 31, 2008, and no further benefits have accrued beyond that date. In connection with the spin-off, we established a corresponding plan, the “VPG Non-Qualified Retirement Plan,” to preserve the benefits accumulated by certain of our employees under the Vishay Non-Qualified Retirement Plan. Only active employees who participated in the Vishay Non-Qualified Retirement Plan as of December 31, 2008 are eligible to participate in the parallel VPG plan. In connection with the freezing of

the Vishay Non-Qualified Retirement Plan, Mr. Clancy became eligible to participate in a supplemental matching program under the Vishay Employee Savings Plus Plan, pursuant to which amounts were deposited in his VSH KEWAP account. This supplemental matching program continues under the corresponding VPG plans.

Every employee who has been designated as an Eligible Executive by the administrator of the plan, including our executive officers, is eligible to participate in our non-qualified deferred compensation plan (the “VPG KEWAP”). The VPG KEWAP permits eligible executives to make voluntary contributions and provides for discretionary Company contributions. In addition, we are required to make contributions on behalf of Mr. Clancy to his VPG KEWAP account as described above.

Perquisites

We provide executive officers with perquisites and other personal benefits that the Compensation Committee believes are reasonable and consistent with our overall executive compensation program. These perquisites are not intended, however, to constitute a material portion of the executive’s compensation package. In general, the perquisites, while not integral to the performance of an executive’s duties, must bear some relationship to the executive’s employment and be of perceived benefit to VPG. The Compensation Committee periodically reviews the levels of perquisites and other personal benefits provided to our NEOs.

Individual Considerations

Compensation among the Company’s NEOs reflects a general assessment of their contributions to the Company’s current performance and its prospects for growth in the future. Our successes have always been fueled by the drivers of technological innovation, continuous efficiency improvement and synergistic acquisition. Mr. Shoshani leads in all these areas and his compensation reflects a perception by the Compensation Committee that the areas of his responsibility will continue to be the key drivers of our future performance.

Other Considerations Regarding Executive Compensation

Israeli benefits

Messrs. Shoshani and Tal are employed by Vishay Advanced Technologies, Ltd., an Israeli subsidiary of VPG, and are residents of Israel. As a result, they are entitled to certain benefits that are generally available to employees in Israel on a non-discriminatory basis, but are not afforded to Mr. Clancy, including:

•advanced training fund, 7.5% of base salary

•severance fund, 8.33% of base salary

•disability insurance, 1.0% of base salary

•pension fund, 5.5% of base salary

These benefits are required by Israeli law or employment practices generally, and were taken into account by the Compensation Committee in formulating the overall compensation packages for Messrs. Shoshani and Tal.

Foreign currency considerations

The Compensation Committee evaluates the effect of foreign currency conversion rates in formulating the overall compensation packages for Mr. Shoshani and Mr. Tal. We determined to set Mr. Shoshani’s base salary in New Israeli Shekels beginning January 1, 2015. Effective January 1, 2022, Mr. Shoshani’s base salary was NIS 2,420,092 on an annual basis. Mr. Tal's base salary in New Israeli Shekels effective January 1, 2022 was NIS 988,165.

Executive Compensation Advisory Vote and Its Frequency

We included an advisory stockholder vote on executive compensation (commonly referred to as "say-on-pay") in our 2022 proxy materials. The Compensation Committee appreciates that over 99% of the votes cast on such proposal approved the executive compensation discussed and disclosed in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, the compensation tables, and the narrative executive compensation disclosure contained in our 2022 Proxy Statement.

Our Compensation Committee interprets the results of this vote as an endorsement of existing programs and therefore, we have not made material changes to our approach to executive officer compensation based on such vote.

In addition, we included in our 2017 proxy materials an advisory stockholder vote on how frequently the Company should conduct a “say-on-pay” vote. In line with the Board of Directors’ recommendation, a majority of the shares voting recommended that the Company conduct a “say-on-pay” vote annually. Therefore, our Board of Directors is again this year submitting for a non-binding stockholder vote our executive compensation as described in this proxy statement.
