Section 1 – Conflict Minerals Disclosure

Item 1.01 - Conflict Minerals Disclosure and Report

Teradyne, Inc. (“Teradyne” or the “Company”) has determined that gold, columbite-tantalite (coltan), cassiterite and wolframite, including their derivatives, tantalum, tin and tungsten (“Conflict Minerals”), are necessary to the functionality or production of products manufactured or contracted to be manufactured by Teradyne.

We conducted a country of origin inquiry regarding the Conflict Minerals in our products which was reasonably designed to determine whether any of the Conflict Minerals originated in the Democratic Republic of the Congo or an adjoining country (“Covered Countries”), or are from recycled or scrap sources. Based on our reasonable country of origin inquiry, we know or have reason to believe that some of the Conflict Minerals in our products originated in the Covered Countries and are not from recycled or scrap sources.

As a result of our reasonable country of origin inquiry, we engaged in due diligence on the source and chain of custody of the Conflict Minerals in our products that originated or may have originated from the Covered Countries. We have filed a Conflict Minerals Report, describing our reasonable country of origin inquiry and due diligence efforts, as an exhibit to this specialized disclosure report. We have provided that report on our publicly available Internet website at http://investor.teradyne.com/conduct-social.cfm.

Item 1.02 - Exhibit

Teradyne attaches to this Form SD an Exhibit 1.02, which contains the Conflict Minerals Report required by Items 1.01 and 1.02.
