Compensation of Non-Management Directors

On December 29, 2009, the Compensation Committee also approved the form of Deferred Stock Agreement (the "Agreement"). Under the terms and conditions of the Cohu, Inc. 2005 Equity Incentive Plan (the "Plan") members of Cohu’s Board of Directors may make an annual irrevocable election to defer receipt of all or a portion of their cash-based outside director fees (including, as applicable, any annual retainer fee, meeting fee, committee fee and any other compensation payable with respect to their service as a member of the board of the Company) (collectively "Director Fees"). In the event that a Director makes such an election, the Company will grant Deferred Stock awards in lieu of cash, with an initial value equal to the deferred cash, which will be settled at a future date through the issuance of the Company’s common stock, pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Plan and the related Agreement.
