On August 29, 2025, Ujjwal Kumar’s tenure as Teradyne, Inc.’s (the “Company”) President of Teradyne Robotics ended. Mr. Kumar will remain employed with the Company through September 30, 2025 to transition his responsibilities. In order to obtain a release of claims from Mr. Kumar and to receive the benefit of certain restrictive covenants, the Company and Mr. Kumar entered into a separation and release of claims agreement (the “Separation Agreement”), pursuant to which he will receive cash severance in the amount of $1,130,000, which is equal to 12 months of his base salary and bonus paid at targets, in two installments: 50% upon executing the Separation Agreement and allowing the release of claims to become effective and irrevocable and 50% upon the 12-month anniversary of his last day of employment, assuming continued compliance with the restrictive covenants, which include non-compete, non-solicitation and non-disparagement requirements. Mr. Kumar will also receive his pro-rated annual cash bonus for 2025, based on actual performance, which is expected to be paid in early 2026.

The foregoing is a summary of the terms of the Separation Agreement and does not purport to summarize or include all terms relating to the transactions contemplated by the Separation Agreement. The foregoing summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Separation Agreement, which will be filed as an exhibit to the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 28, 2025.
