(e) CFO Relocation Agreement

In support of Robert J. Nikl’s relocation to a residence closer to Verigy’s principal U.S. offices, Verigy US, Inc. and Mr. Nikl entered into a Relocation Agreement on November 17, 2009 (the “Relocation Agreement”), pursuant to which Verigy will pay Mr. Nikl a lump sum gross amount of ONE HUNDRED EIGHTY THOUSAND DOLLARS ($180,000), less applicable withholding taxes, to cover costs associated with his relocation (the “Relocation Benefit”). Verigy’s obligation to pay the Relocation Benefit is contingent on Mr. Nikl’s purchase of a residence in the local area being completed on or before April 30, 2010. Verigy will pay the Relocation Benefit promptly after receipt of appropriate documents confirming Mr. Nikl’s purchase of a new residence in the Cupertino area before April 30, 2010 (the date of payment is referred to as the “Payment Date”).

Pursuant to the Relocation Agreement, Verigy will continue to pay Mr. Nikl a monthly living allowance pursuant to the letter agreement between Verigy US, Inc. and Mr. Nikl, dated October 1, 2007, until the earlier to occur of (i) the Payment Date; (ii) April 1, 2020, which is 30 months from commencement of October 1, 2007 letter agreement; (iii) such date as Mr. Nikl no longer leases an apartment near Verigy’s Cupertino office; or (iv) the date of Mr. Nikl’s termination of employment with Verigy for any reason (the “Living Allowance Termination Date”).

If Mr. Nikl’s employment with the company terminates on or before the third anniversary of the Payment Date, other than as a result of a Termination Event (as defined in the Second Amended and Restated Severance Agreement by and between Mr. Nikl and Verigy Ltd.), Mr. Nikl will reimburse Verigy for a pro rated portion of the Relocation Benefit. The reimbursement obligation will decline on a pro rated basis at the rate of 1/36th of the Relocation Benefit for each full month that elapses between the Payment Date and his termination date.

The Relocation Agreement between Mr. Nikl and Verigy US, Inc., dated November 17, 2009, is filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated by reference in this Item 5.02(e).
