Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

Appointment of New Director

On March 24, 2016, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Vishay Precision Group, Inc. (the “Company”) appointed Cary Wood as a member of the Board, effective immediately. Mr. Wood’s initial term will expire at the next annual meeting of stockholders in 2016.

Mr. Wood’s annual compensation will be consistent with the terms of the Company’s 2014 Non-Executive Director Compensation Plan (the “Plan”), as described in the Company’s proxy statement for the 2015 annual meeting of stockholders, filed with the U. S. Securities and Exchange Commission on April 10, 2015, under the heading “Director Compensation.” On March 24, 2016, the Company granted to Mr. Wood restricted stock units of the Company with a grant date fair value of approximately $7,270, which represents a pro-rated portion of the annual equity grant made to non-executive directors pursuant to the Plan. These restricted stock units will vest on the date of the annual meeting of stockholders in 2016, subject to Mr. Wood’s continued service as a director on such date. In addition, in connection with his appointment, Mr. Wood received a cash retainer of $5,178, which represents a pro-rated portion of the annual cash retainer paid to non-executive directors pursuant to the Plan.

In addition, Mr. Wood entered into an indemnification agreement with the Company effective March 24, 2016, substantially in the form of the indemnification agreement entered into between the Company and its other directors and executive officers.

There is no arrangement or understanding between Mr. Wood and any other persons pursuant to which Mr. Wood was selected as a director. There are no related party transactions involving Mr. Wood that are reportable under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.

Director Retirement

On March 26, 2016, Dr. Samuel Broydo, age 79, informed the Board of his decision to retire from the Board, and not to stand for re-election, at the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders.
