Item 5.02.   Departure of Directors or Principal Officers; Elections of Directors; Appointment of Principal Officers

(b)   On April 7, 2014, James W. Schwartz notified inTEST Corporation (the "Company") of his decision to not stand for re-election as a Director of the Company at the 2014 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Mr. Schwartz, 79, has served on the Board of Directors for ten years, including service on the Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. During his tenure, he has also served as Lead Independent Director. On April 10, 2014, the Board of Directors (the "Board") determined that William Kraut will succeed Mr. Schwartz as Lead Independent Director upon completion of Mr. Schwartz's present term.

(d)   On April 10, 2014, the Board of Directors (the "Board") of the Company elected Joseph W. Dews IV as a director of the Company, and after determining him to be independent, appointed him to the Board's Audit, Compensation and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committees. Mr. Dews is a partner with AGC Partners, a technology investment bank. In conjunction with the election of Mr. Dews to the Board, the number of Directors on the Board was temporarily increased to seven. However, upon the completion of Mr. Schwartz's present term, the number of directors will again be fixed at six, four of whom are independent directors.

Also in connection with Mr. Dews' election, the Board authorized the issuance of 10,000 shares of restricted stock to him. These restricted shares will vest over a four-year period consistent with restricted stock awards granted to new directors in the past. The compensation of Mr. Dews will be consistent with that provided to the Company's other non-employee directors, as described in the Company's most recent proxy statement filed with the SEC.

There is no arrangement or understanding under which Mr. Dews was appointed other than as described above. There are no transactions involving Mr. Dews requiring disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.

On April 11, 2014, the Company issued a press release announcing the election of Joseph W. Dews IV as well as James W. Schwartz's decision not to stand for re-election as a Director at the 2014 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, as described above. A copy of this release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
