Post-Effective Amendment No. 1

The Registration Statement on Form S-8 (No. 333-69840) (the “Registration Statement”) of Tektronix, Inc. (“Tektronix”) pertaining to the registration of certain shares of Tektronix’s common stock (“Tektronix Common Stock”), issuable to eligible employees of Tektronix under the 2001 Non Employee Directors Compensation Plan and the 2001 Stock Option Plan, to which this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 relates, was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 21, 2001.

Tektronix, Danaher Corporation (“Danaher”) and Raven Acquisition Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of Danaher (“Purchaser”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of October 14, 2007 (the “Merger Agreement”), that provides for, among other things, the merger of Purchaser with and into Tektronix with Tektronix surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Danaher and the conversion of each outstanding share of Tektronix Common Stock into the right to receive $38.00 in cash (the “Merger”).

On November 21, 2007, Purchaser acquired over 90% of the outstanding Tektronix Common Stock, and, subsequently, effected the Merger pursuant to Section 491 of the Oregon Business Corporation Act. The Merger became effective as specified in Articles of Merger filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Oregon on November 21, 2007 (the “Merger Date”).

As a result of the Merger, Tektronix has terminated all offerings of Tektronix Common Stock pursuant to its existing registration statements, including the Registration Statement. Accordingly, Tektronix hereby removes from registration all shares of Tektronix Common Stock registered under the Registration Statement which remain unsold as of the Merger Date.
