Loan Agreement

On March 31, 2009, Teradyne K.K., Teradyne’s wholly-owned subsidiary in Japan, entered into a loan agreement with a local bank in Japan to borrow approximately $10.0 million (the loan was denominated in Japanese Yen). The loan had a term of 5 years and a fixed interest rate of 0.8%. Approximately $6.0 million of the loan was collateralized by a real estate mortgage on Teradyne K.K.’s building and land in Kumamoto, Japan and approximately $4.0 million was unsecured. Teradyne, Inc. guaranteed payment of the loan obligation. The loan was amortized over the term of the loan with semiannual principal payments of approximately $1.0 million on September 30 and March 30 each year. The final principal and interest payments were made in March 2014.

Convertible Senior Notes

In April 2009, Teradyne issued 4.50% convertible senior notes (the “Notes”) at an aggregate principal amount of $190 million and a conversion price of $5.4750 or 182.65 shares of Teradyne’s common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Notes. The Notes had a maturity date of March 15, 2014. Substantially all of the Notes were converted prior to March 15, 2014 and were “net share settled,” meaning that the holders received, for each $1,000 in principal amount of Notes, $1,000 in cash and approximately 131.95 shares of Teradyne common stock (calculated by taking 182.65 shares less 50.7 shares). The 50.7 shares were determined by dividing the $1,000 principal amount by the $19.74 average trading price of Teradyne’s common stock over the 25 day trading period from February 5, 2014 to March 12, 2014.

Teradyne satisfied the Notes “net share settlement” by paying the aggregate principal amount of $190 million in cash and issuing 25.1 million shares of common stock. On March 13, 2014, Teradyne exercised its call option agreement entered into with Goldman, Sachs & Co. (the “hedge counterparty”) at the time of issuance of the Notes and received 25.1 million shares of Teradyne’s common stock, which were retired.

Subsequently, the hedge counterparty can exercise warrants with a strike price of $7.6389. The warrants are net share settled. Approximately 536,000 warrants expire on a daily basis over a 65-day trading period from June 17, 2014 to September 17, 2014. In the three months ended June 29, 2014, approximately 1.9 million shares were issued for warrants exercised.
