Item 8.01. Other Events.

A putative class action lawsuit entitled “Boon Ping Teoh v. Michael J. Ferrantino, Jr. et al.” (Civil Action No. V356627) has been filed in the Circuit Court for Montgomery County, Maryland against Valpey-Fisher Corporation (the “Company”), the Company’s directors, CTS Corporation (“CTS”) and its indirect wholly-owned subsidiary, VF Acquisition Corp. (“Merger Sub”). The lawsuit was filed on December 13, 2011 and first served upon the Company on or about December 26, 2011. The Plaintiff’s complaint generally alleges that the directors breached their fiduciary duties to the Company and its stockholders by (i) approving, for inadequate consideration, the merger of Merger Sub with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation and an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of CTS, pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated November 17, 2011 between the Company, CTS and Merger Sub and (ii) disseminating a materially misleading proxy statement in connection with a Special Meeting of Stockholders of the Company to be held on January 24, 2012 to consider approval of the merger. The Plaintiff is seeking injunctive relief, monetary damages and attorneys’ fees.

The Company and its directors intend to rigorously contest the claims set forth in the lawsuit.
