(ii) a material reduction in Executive's annual Base Salary (as the same may be increased from time to time after the Effective Date);

(iii) relocation of Executive's principal place of performance to a location other than [Address Redacted] (excluding for this purpose reasonable travel from time to time); or

Therefore, Executive understands the importance of the duty of confidentiality and non-competition.

(b) During the Non-Competition Period, Executive shall not, without the prior written consent of an authorized officer of Vishay, directly or indirectly, own, manage, operate, join, control, participate in, invest in or otherwise be connected or associated with, in any manner, including as an officer, director, employee, independent contractor, subcontractor, stockholder, member, manager, partner, principal, consultant, advisor, agent, proprietor, trustee or investor, any Competing Business; provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall prevent Executive from (i) owning five percent (5%) or less of the stock or other securities of a publicly held corporation, so long as Executive does not in fact have the power to control, or direct the management of, and is not otherwise associated with, such corporation, or (ii) performing services for an investment bank, investment advisor or investment fund that may, directly or indirectly, own, manage, operate, join, control, participate in, invest in or otherwise be connected or associated with, in any manner, any Competing Business, provided that Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, have any responsibility whatsoever for, provide any services whatsoever to, or otherwise be connected or associated with such Competing Business.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a company has separate divisions or subsidiaries, some of which conduct a Competing Business and some of which conduct other businesses which are not Competing Businesses, then the restrictions imposed hereunder with respect to Competing Businesses shall apply only to the divisions or subsidiaries of such company that conduct the Competing Businesses, provided that (x) Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, have any responsibility whatsoever for, provide any services whatsoever to, or otherwise be connected or associated with any Competing Business of the same company, and (y) Executive obtains the prior written consent of Vishay, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

(c) persuade or seek to persuade any customer of Vishay or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates to cease to do business or to reduce the amount of business which the customer has customarily done or contemplates doing with Vishay or such subsidiary or affiliate, whether or not the relationship with such customer was originally established in whole or in part through Executive's efforts; or

(d) interfere in any manner in the relationship of Vishay or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates with any of their respective customers, suppliers, or independent contractors, whether or not the relationship with such customer, supplier or independent contractor was originally established in whole or in part through Executive's efforts.

7.3. Confidential Information.  Executive agrees that he shall not, directly or indirectly, use, make available, sell, disclose or otherwise communicate to any person, other than in the course of Executive's assigned duties hereunder and for the benefit of Vishay and/or its subsidiaries or affiliates, either during the Term or at any time thereafter, any nonpublic, proprietary information, confidential information, as that term is defined under governing law, knowledge or data in any form or media, whether documentary, written, oral or computer generated relating to Vishay, any of its subsidiaries, affiliated companies or businesses, which shall have been obtained by Executive during Executive's employment by Vishay and/or its subsidiaries or affiliates.  The foregoing shall not apply to information that (a) was known to the public prior to its disclosure to Executive; (b) becomes known to the public subsequent to disclosure to Executive through no wrongful act of Executive or any representative of Executive; or (c) Executive is required to disclose by applicable law, regulation or legal process (provided that Executive provides Vishay with prior notice of the contemplated disclosure and reasonably cooperates with Vishay at its expense in seeking a protective order or other appropriate protection of such information).  Notwithstanding clauses (a) and (b) of the preceding sentence, Executive's obligation to maintain such disclosed information in confidence shall not terminate where only portions of the information are in the public domain. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, this Agreement shall not be construed to impede Executive from making any communications or disclosures contemplated by Rule 12F-17 of the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act or any successor legislation.

7.4. Non-Disparagement.  Executive agrees not to make any public statements that disparage Vishay, Vishay Singapore or their respective subsidiaries, affiliates, employees, officers, directors, products or services.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, statements made in the course of sworn testimony in administrative, judicial or arbitral proceedings (including, without limitation, depositions in connection with such proceedings) shall not be subject to this Section 7.4.

7.5. Acknowledgements Respecting Restrictive Covenants.

(a) Executive has carefully read and considered the provisions of this Section 7 and, having done so, agrees that:

(i) the restrictive covenants contained in this Section 7, including, without limitation, the scope and time period of such restrictions, are reasonable, fair and equitable in light of Executive's duties and responsibilities under this Agreement and the benefits to be provided to him under this Agreement; and

(ii) such restrictive covenants are reasonably necessary to protect the legitimate business interests of Vishay, Vishay Singapore and their subsidiaries and affiliates.

(b) The parties acknowledge that it is impossible to measure in money the damages that will accrue to one party in the event that the other party breaches any of the restrictive covenants contained in this Section 7 and that any such damages, in any event, would be inadequate and insufficient.  Therefore, if Executive breaches any restrictive covenant contained in this Section 7, Vishay and Vishay Singapore shall be entitled to an injunction restraining the breaching party from violating such restrictive covenant.  If Vishay or Vishay Singapore institute any action or proceeding to enforce a restrictive covenant contained in this Section 7, Executive hereby waives, and agrees not to assert in any such action or proceeding, the claim or defense that Vishay and/or Vishay Singapore has an adequate remedy at law.

(c) In the event of a breach of any of the restrictive covenants contained in this Section 7, the parties agree that Vishay and Vishay Singapore, in addition to any injunctive relief as described in Section 7.5(b), shall be entitled to any other appropriate legal or equitable remedy.

(d) If any of the restrictive covenants contained in this Section 7 are deemed by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable by reason of their extent, duration or geographical scope or otherwise, the parties contemplate that the court shall revise such extent, duration, geographical scope or other provision but only to the extent required in order to render such restrictions enforceable, and enforce any such restriction in its revised form for all purposes in the manner contemplated hereby.

7.6. Special Consideration.  Executive hereby acknowledges that Vishay Singapore's obligation to make payments to Executive pursuant to Section 4 and Section 6 of this Agreement is in consideration of Executive's agreement to be bound by and comply with the provisions of this Section 7.
