ACQUISITIONS

      In  the  first  quarter  of fiscal 1996, the  Company  completed  its
acquisition of all of the outstanding shares of Lightworks Editing  Systems
Limited and Lightworks Editing System, Inc.(Lightworks), which designs  and
develops  non-linear  editing systems.  The Company  has  issued  1,644,000
common  shares to complete the acquisition.  The acquisition was  accounted
for  as  a  pooling  of  interests and the financial statements  have  been
restated  to  include the results and financial position of Lightworks  for
all prior periods.

      The  restatement  did  not have a material effect  on  the  Company's
previously  reported  1995 results or financial  position  except  for  the
impact  on  earnings per share from the issuance of the shares to  complete
the acquisition.  The restatement reduced the Company's previously reported
earnings  per  share  for  fiscal year 1995 by $0.13  per  share  primarily
because  of  the issuance of additional shares to complete the acquisition.
The  impact  of  the restatement on earnings per share in each  quarter  of
fiscal  1995 was as follows:  an increase of $0.02 in the first quarter;  a
decrease  of $0.02 in the second quarter; a decrease of $0.05 in the  third
quarter; and a decrease of $0.08 in the fourth quarter.


SHORT-TERM AND LONG-TERM DEBT

      In the first quarter of fiscal 1996, the Company issued $50.0 million
of 7.625% Notes due August 15, 2002.

      The  provision  for income taxes was calculated at  estimated  annual

effective  rates  of  30%  and 26%, respectively, for  the  quarters  ended

ITEM 2.             MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL

                            Financial Condition
                                   

     The Company's financial condition is strong.  Cash flow from operating

activities  and  borrowing  capacity from  existing  lines  of  credit  are

sufficient to meet current and anticipated future needs.  At the end of the

second  quarter  (November 25, 1995), the Company  maintained  bank  credit

facilities  totaling  $300.4 million, of which $236.8 million  was  unused.

The  unused facilities include $137.2 million in lines of credit and  $99.6

million  under a revolving credit agreement from United States and  foreign

banks.



     Current assets increased by $20.2 million from the year end balance at

May 27, 1995 due to higher accounts receivable and inventories, partly off-

                                     6
<PAGE>


set by a decline in other current assets. Accounts receivable were slightly 

higher due to increased sales in certain geographies which have longer col-

lection terms.  Increased inventories  were due primarily  to higher  order 

rates and a  buildup of  some components caused  by longer  lead times  and 

changes in the mix of product orders. Other current assets declined primar-

ily because of the  collection of a portion of a note receivable  from  the  

sale  of  a building,  and the reduction of short-term deferred tax assets.



      Net  property, plant and equipment increased by $24.1 million as  the

Company  continued  to invest in facilities consolidation  and  information

systems.



      Current liabilities declined by $58.7 million.   Short-term debt  was

paid  down by $22.1 million with proceeds generated by the issuance of  $50

million  in  long-term notes.  Accrued compensation declined $25.5  million

due  to  the  payment of year-end accruals for incentives and  commissions,

usage  of  accrued  vacation and the payment of employee severance  charged

against restructuring reserves.



     Long-term debt increased as a result of the Company's issuance, in the

first quarter,  of $50 million in notes due August 15, 2002.



      Shareholders'  equity  increased by $45.7 million  due  primarily  to

earnings  net of dividends, the exercising of stock options and an increase

in  holding  gains  on investments in marketable securities  available  for

sale,   partly  offset  by  a  negative  currency  adjustment  due   to   a

strengthening  U.S.  dollar against the Japanese  Yen  and   certain  major

European currencies.

                           Restructuring Charges



      The  Company  is  completing  its  consolidation  of  facilities  and

reduction  of  workforce for which restructuring charges were provided,  as

described  in the 1995 Annual Report to shareholders.  At the  end  of  the

second   quarter,  substantially  all  restructuring  reserves  have   been

utilized.

In the first half of fiscal 1996, net earnings were $49.0 million, or $1.47

per share compared with $36.0 million, or $1.11 per share in the first half

of fiscal 1995.



      Net  sales  were $844.6 million, an increase of 24%  from  the  prior

year's  total of $683.5 million.  Product orders increased 25% from  $649.9

million to $813.1 million.  The Company experienced strong sales and  order

growth in all three businesses and in all geographic regions.



      Measurement  Business Division sales of $385.5 million increased  15%

from the prior year, with strong growth in instruments, handheld electronic

tools  and  communications test products.  Product  orders  increased  from

$324.0 million to $383.2 million, or 18%.

Color Printing and Imaging Division sales  increased 32% to $261.5  million

reflecting continued heavy demand for the current printer lines, especially

the Phaser* 340 solid ink printer. Product orders increased 27% from $190.1

million to $242.3 million. *(Phaser is a registered trademark of Tektronix, 

Inc.).



      Video  and Networking Division experienced a 38% increase in  product

orders over  the prior year, from $135.8 million to $187.6 million.   Sales

increased  40% to $197.6 million, led by strong sales of the Profile* video

disk recorder, Grass Valley Group TV production equipment and X  terminals.

*(Profile is a trademark of Tektronix, Inc.).



      Sales  to  customers in the United States increased 21%  from  $356.9

million   to   $431.2  million,   and  represented  51%  of  total   sales.

International  sales of  $413.5 million were up 30%,  with  growth  in  all

regions  and particular strength in Europe.  Product orders from  customers

in  the  United States of $393.5 million were up 23% from last  year  while

international product orders of $419.6 million were up 28%.



      Cost  of  sales increased as a percentage of net sales from 53.0%  to

57.9%   as  the  Company  continued  to increase  the  use  of  alternative

distribution   channels,  experienced  the  impact  of  increased   systems

integration  sales  from Video and Networking and experienced  declines  in

Color  Printing and Imaging margins as a result of changes in  product  mix

and  the  short-term  impact of early shipments of  the  Phaser  340  color

printer.

expenses declined sharply as a percentage of sales, from 12.2% to 9.4%  and

from 27.3% to 24.4%, respectively, due primarily to the higher sales volume

and  continued  effective  cost  controls, particularly  in  administrative

functions.

                                     9

Operating income as a percentage of sales increased year over year,  rising

from 7.6% in the first half of 1995 to 8.4% as  lower operating expenses as

a percentage of sales more than offset declining gross margins.



      Other  expense  declined due primarily to higher gains  on  sales  of

stock in other companies, partly offset by higher interest expense.



      The  provision for income taxes increased from $12.1 million to $21.0

million  due  to  increased earnings before taxes and  a  higher  estimated

effective  annual tax rate of 30% for the current year, compared  to  25.1%

for the first half of last year.



      Net earnings were 36% higher than the prior year, due to higher sales

and higher operating income, partly offset by higher taxes.

     In the second quarter of fiscal 1996, net earnings were $26.3 million,

or  $0.79 per share compared with $18.6 million, or $0.57 per share in  the

second quarter of fiscal 1995.



      Net  sales  were $443.6 million,  up 24% from $358.7 million  in  the

prior  year.   Product  orders  increased from  $343.9  million  to  $424.0

million,  a  23%  improvement.  The Company experienced  strong  sales  and

orders growth in all three businesses and in all geographic regions.


                                    10
<PAGE>

Measurement  Business  sales of $200.2 million  were  up  11%  from  $180.3

million  in  the prior year due to acceptance of new products, particularly

in instruments, handheld electronic tools and communications test products.

The  sales increase came despite constraints resulting from parts shortages

during the current quarter.  Product orders for Measurement increased  from

$175.3 million to $208.2 million, or 19%.



      Color Printing and Imaging sales increased 29% from $108.8 million to

$139.9  million,  with  strong sales of the  Phaser  340  solid  ink  color

printer.   Product orders increased by 26% over the prior  year,  improving

from $101.4 million to $127.9 million.



      Video  and Networking experienced product orders of $87.9 million,  a

31% increase over the $67.2 million reported for the prior year.  Sales for

the  division grew 52% from $68.2 million to $103.5 million, led by  strong

sales  of the Profile video disk recorder, Grass Valley Group TV production

equipment and X terminals.



      Sales  to customers in the United States increased by 19% from $184.6

million  to $220.2 million, representing 50% of total sales.  International

sales of  $223.4 million were up 29% from $172.7 million in the prior year,

with  strong growth in all regions particularly in Europe.  Product  orders

in  both U.S. and international operations increased by 23% over the  prior

year.   U.S.  orders  increased  from $166.3  million  to  $205.2  million;

internationally, the increase was from $177.6 million to $218.8 million.

                                     

       Cost of sales increased as a percentage of net sales from  54.3%  to

58.1%  as the Company continued to increase the percentage of sales through

alternative  distribution channels, experienced  inefficiencies  associated

with  parts shortages in some  businesses,  and continued to be impacted by

increased systems integration sales in Video and Networking.  Additionally,

        Color Printing and Imaging experienced lower margins in the second
                                   
                                    11

quarter of this year compared to the same quarter last  year  as  a result

of changes in product mix, but the margins improved slightly in the second

quarter compared to the first quarter of this year.



      Research  and  development  and selling, general  and  administrative

expenses  declined as a percentage of sales, from 11.5% to  9.1%  and  from

26.9% to 24.4%, respectively, due primarily to the higher sales volume  and

continued   effective   cost  controls,  particularly   in   administrative

functions.



      Operating  income as a percentage of sales increased year over  year,

rising  from 7.6% in the second quarter of 1995 to 8.8% this year as  lower

operating  expenses  as  a percentage of sales more than  offset  declining

gross margins.



      Income  taxes  increased from $6.5 million to $11.3  million  due  to

higher  earnings before taxes in the current quarter and a higher estimated

effective annual tax rate of 30% for the current year compared to 26%  last

year.



      Net earnings of $26.3 million were 41% higher than the prior year due

to  higher  sales  and higher operating income, partly  offset  by   higher

taxes.

350 Lakeview Boulevard
Lake Oswego, OR  97034                                Executive


Tektronix, Inc.,
an Oregon corporation
P.O. Box 1000
Wilsonville, Oregon                                  Tektronix


Tektronix considers the establishment and maintenance of a sound
and vital management to be essential to protecting and enhancing
the best interests of Tektronix and its shareholders.  In order to
induce Executive to remain employed by Tektronix in the face of
uncertainties about the long-term strategies of Tektronix and their
potential impact on the scope and nature of Executive's position
with Tektronix, this Agreement, which has been approved by the
Organization and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors
of Tektronix, sets forth the severance benefits that Tektronix will
provide to Executive in the event Executive's employment by
Tektronix is terminated under the circumstances described in this
Agreement.

1.   Employment Relationship.  Executive is currently employed by
     Tektronix as Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. 
     Executive and Tektronix acknowledge that either party may
     terminate this employment relationship at any time and for any
     reason, subject to the obligation of Tektronix to provide the
     benefits specified in this Agreement in accordance with the
     terms hereof.

2.   Release of Claims.  In consideration for the severance
     benefits outlined in this Agreement, Executive agrees to
     execute a Release of Claims in the form attached as Exhibit A
     ("Release of Claims").  Executive promises to execute and
     deliver the Release of Claims to Tektronix within the later of
     forty-five (45) days from the date Executive receives the
     Release of Claims or on the last day of Executive's active
     employment. 

3.   Compensation Upon Termination.  In the event that Executive's
     employment is terminated at any time by Tektronix other than
     for Cause (as defined in Section 6.1 of this Agreement),
     death, or Disability (as defined in Section 6.2 of this
     Agreement), subject to Executive's execution of a Release of
     Claims, Executive shall be entitled to the following benefits:

     3.1  As severance pay and in lieu of any further pay for
          periods subsequent to the date of termination, Tektronix
          shall pay Executive, in a single payment within the later
          of forty-five (45) days after termination of employment
          or eight days after execution of the Release of Claims,
          an amount in cash equal to Executive's annual base pay at
          the rate in effect immediately prior to the date of
          termination, or, if greater, an amount in cash equal to
          Executive's average annual base pay for the three years
          ending with Executive's last pay change preceding
          termination.

     3.2  Executive is entitled to extend coverage under any group
          health plan in which Executive and Executive's dependents
          are enrolled at the time of termination of employment
          under the COBRA continuation laws for the 18-month
          statutory period, or so long as Executive remains
          eligible under COBRA.

          Tektronix will pay Executive a lump sum payment in an
          amount equivalent to the reasonably estimated cost
          Executive may incur to extend for a period of eighteen
          (18) months under the COBRA continuation laws Executive's
          group health and dental plan coverage in effect at the
          time of termination.  Executive may use this payment, as
          well as any payment made under 3.1, for such COBRA
          continuation coverage or for any other purpose. 

     3.3  Except as provided in Section 5.2, Executive shall be
          entitled to a portion of the benefits under any incentive
          plans in effect at the time of termination (including the
          Results Sharing Plan and the Annual Performance Improve
          ment Plan), prorated for the portion of the plan year
          during which Executive was a participant.  For purposes
          of this Agreement, Executive's participation in the
          Annual Performance Improvement Plan will be considered to
          have ended on Executive's last day of active employment. 
          Prorated awards shall not be due and payable by Tektronix
          to Executive until the date that all awards are paid
          after the close of the incentive period.  Unless the
          applicable plan provides for a greater payment for a
          participant whose employment terminates prior to the end
          of an incentive period (in which case the applicable plan
          payment shall be made), the proration shall be calculated
          pursuant to this Section 3.3.  The payment, if any, that
          would have been made under Executive's award had Execu-
          tive been made a participant for the full incentive
          period shall be calculated at the end of the incentive
          period.  Such amount shall be divided by the total number
          of days in the incentive period and the result multiplied
          by the actual number of days Executive participated in
          the plan.

     3.4  Tektronix will pay up to $12,500 to a third party
          outplacement firm selected by Executive to provide career
          counseling assistance to Executive for a period of one
          (1) year following Executive's termination date. 

     3.5  Tektronix will permit Executive to continue to partici-
          pate in its Executive Financial Counseling Program
          through the remainder of the term of Executive's current
          participation (which shall in no case be longer than one
          (1) year after the effective date of Executive's termina-
          tion).

4.   Subsequent Employment.  The amount of any payment provided for
     in this Agreement shall not be reduced, offset or subject to
     recovery by Tektronix by reason of any compensation earned by
     Executive as the result of employment by another employer
     after termination.

5.   Other Agreements.

     5.1  In the event that severance benefits are payable to
          Executive under any other agreement with Tektronix in
          effect at the time of termination (including but not
          limited to any change of control, "golden parachute"  or
          employment agreement, but excluding for this purpose any
          stock option agreement or stock bonus agreement or stock
          appreciation right agreement that may provide for
          accelerated vesting or related benefits upon the occur
          rence of a change in control), the benefits provided in
          this Agreement shall not be payable to Executive. 
          Executive may, however, elect to receive all of the
          benefits provided for in this Agreement in lieu of all of
          the benefits provided in all such other agreements.  Any
          such election shall be made with respect to the agree
          ments as a whole, and Executive cannot select some bene-
          fits from one agreement and other benefits from this
          Agreement.

     5.2  The vesting or accrual of stock options, restricted
          stock, stock bonuses, or any other stock awards shall not
          continue following termination.  Any agreements between
          Executive and Tektronix that relate to stock awards
          (including but not limited to stock options, long term
          incentive program, stock bonuses and restricted stock)
          shall be governed by such agreements and shall not be
          affected by this Agreement.

6.   Definitions.

     6.1  Cause.  Termination by Tektronix of Executive's employ
          ment for "Cause" shall mean termination upon (a) the
          willful and continued failure by Executive to perform
          substantially Executive's reasonably assigned duties with
          Tektronix (other than any such failure resulting from
          Executive's incapacity due to physical or mental illness)
          after a demand for substantial performance is 
          delivered to Executive by the Chairman of 
          the Board of Directors or the President of
          Tektronix which specifically identifies the manner in
          which such executive believes that Executive has not
          substantially performed Executive's duties, or (b) the
          willful engaging by Executive in illegal conduct which is
          materially and demonstrably injurious to Tektronix.  For
          purposes of this Section 6.1, no act, or failure to act,
          on Executive's part shall be considered "willful" unless
          done, or omitted to be done, by Executive in knowing bad
          faith and without reasonable belief that Executive's
          action or omission was in, or not opposed to, the best
          interests of Tektronix.  Any act, or failure to act,
          based upon authority given pursuant to a resolution duly
          adopted by the Board of Directors or based upon the
          advice of counsel for Tektronix shall be conclusively
          presumed to be done, or omitted to be done, by Executive
          in good faith and in the best interests of Tektronix.

     6.2  Disability.  Termination by Tektronix of Executive's
          employment based on "Disability" shall mean termination
          because of Executive's absence from Executive's duties
          with Tektronix on a full-time basis for one hundred
          eighty (180) consecutive days as a result of Executive's
          incapacity due to physical or mental illness, unless
          within thirty (30) days after notice of termination by
          Tektronix following such absence Executive shall have
          returned to the full-time performance of Executive's
          duties.

7.   Successors; Binding Agreement.

     7.1  This Agreement shall be binding on and inure to the
          benefit of Tektronix and its successors and assigns.

     7.2  This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be
          enforceable by Executive and Executive's legal 
          representatives, executors, administrators and heirs.

8.   Resignation of Corporate Offices.  Executive will resign
     Executive's office, if any, as a director, officer or trustee
     of Tektronix, its subsidiaries or affiliates, effective as of
     the date of termination of employment.  Executive agrees to
     provide Tektronix such written resignation(s) upon request.

9.   Governing Law, Arbitration.  This Agreement shall be construed
     in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of
     Oregon.  Any dispute or controversy arising under or in
     connection with this Agreement or the breach thereof, shall be
     settled exclusively by arbitration in Portland, Oregon in
     accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the
     American Arbitration Association, and judgment upon the award
     rendered by the Arbitrator may be entered in any Court having
     jurisdiction thereof.

10.  Fees and Expenses.  In the event that Executive initiates
     arbitration under the circumstances described in this Agree-
     ment to obtain or enforce any right or benefit provided by
     this Agreement and the arbitrator determines that Executive is
     the prevailing party, Executive shall be permitted to recover
     Executive's reasonable attorneys' fees and costs incurred in
     connection with such proceeding.  In the event that the
     arbitrator determines that Tektronix is the prevailing party,
     each party shall bear its own attorneys' fees and costs
     incurred in connection with such proceeding.

11.  Amendment.  No provision of this Agreement may be modified
     unless such modification is agreed to in a writing signed by
     Executive and Tektronix.

                                 Exhibit A

                             RELEASE OF CLAIMS


This Release of Claims (the "Release") is made and executed by
_________________________________ in connection with the termina-
tion of my employment with Tektronix, Inc. ("Tektronix") and in
consideration of my receiving valuable severance pay and benefits
as provided for in the Executive Severance Agreement ("Agreement"). 
These benefits are substantial consideration to which I am not
otherwise entitled.

On behalf of myself and my spouse, heirs, administrators and
assigns, I hereby release Tektronix, its parent and related
corporations, affiliates, or joint venturers and all officers,
directors, employees, agents, and insurers of the aforementioned
(collectively the "Company") from any and all liability, damages or
causes of action, whether known or unknown relating to my employ
ment with the Company or the termination of that employment,
including but not limited to any claims for additional compensation
in any form, or damages.  This specifically includes, but is not
limited to, all claims for relief or remedy under any state or
federal laws, including but not limited to Title VII of the Civil
Rights Act of 1964, the Post-Civil War Civil Rights Acts (42 USC Sections
1981-1988), the Civil Rights Act of 1991, the Equal Pay Act, the
Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, the Americans with
Disabilities Act, the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act, the
Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act, the Rehabilita-
tion Act of 1973, the Vietnam Era Veterans' Readjustment Assistance
Act, the Fair Labor Standards Act, Executive Order 11246, all as
amended, and the civil rights, employment and labor laws of the
state of any state or the United States. 

This Release shall not affect any rights which I may have under any
medical insurance, disability, workers' compensation, unemployment
compensation or retirement plans maintained by the Company.

I acknowledge that I have been given at least 45 days to consider
whether to execute this Release of Claims and accept benefits under
the Program; that I have been advised of my right to consult with
an attorney or financial advisor of my choice and at my own
expense; that the Agreement gives me severance pay and benefits
which the Company would otherwise have no obligation to give me;
and that I voluntarily enter into the Release of Claims.

I understand that the Release of Claims is to be signed within 45
days from the date I received it or on my last day of employment,
whichever is later, and that I may revoke the Release of Claims,
provided I do so in writing within seven (7) days of signing the
Release.  I understand and agree that the Company will have no
obligation to pay me any benefits under the Agreement until the
expiration of the revocation period, provided I have not revoked
the Release of Claims.  I understand that if I revoke the Release
of Claims my termination will nonetheless remain in full force and
effect and I will not be entitled to any benefits under the

PO Box 1000, M/S 63-LAW

           The Executive Severance Agreement dated September 22, 1993
is amended as follows to reflect the Split Dollar Insurance
Agreement between the parties dated as of June 23, 1994 (the
Split Dollar Agreement).

      1.   Split Dollar Insurance Benefits.

           New Sections 4 and 5 are added as follows, existing
Sections 4 through 11 are renumbered 6 through 13 respectively,
and cross-references are adjusted accordingly:

           4.   Split Dollar Insurance Adjustments Before Five
      Years of Service.  If Executive terminates employment before
      completing five years of service (i.e., before becoming
      entitled to benefits under the Supplemental Executive
      Retirement Agreement with Tektronix dated March 17, 1993) the
      following shall apply:

                4.1  Any amount payable under Section 3 shall
           be reduced by the net value of the Split Dollar
           Insurance issued on Executive's life under the
           Split Dollar Insurance Agreement between the
           parties dated as of June 23, 1994. 
                           
                4.2  The net value of the insurance under 4.1
           is the cash surrender value of the Insurance less
           the amount recoverable by Tektronix under the
           Collateral Assignment.

           5.   Split Dollar Insurance Adjustments After Five Years
      of Service.  If Executive terminates employment voluntarily
      or involuntarily for any reason other than death after
      completing five years of service and before the Full Funding
      Date under 5.4 below, the following shall apply:

                5.1  Tektronix shall not, before the Full
           Funding Date, exercise its rights under the Split
           Dollar Agreement or the related Collateral
           Assignment to withdraw the cash surrender value of
           the Split Dollar Policy on termination of the Split
           Dollar Agreement because of Executive's termination
           of employment.

                5.2  Except as provided below, Tektronix shall
           pay Executive $54,722 as of each June 23 after the
           date of termination up to the Full Funding Date. 
           The last payment shall be made as of the Full
           Funding Date.  The amount for the last payment
           shall be pro-rated on a daily basis to the Full
           Funding Date.

                5.3  Tektronix shall take no action that would
           interfere with Executive's payment of scheduled
           employee premiums under the Split Dollar Policy up
           to the Full Funding Date.  Executive shall have no
           obligation to pay such premiums.  Tektronix's
           obligation to pay under 5.2 above is not
           conditioned upon Executive's payment of such
           premiums.

                5.4  "Full Funding Date" means the first date
           on which any of the following occurs:

                     (a)  Executive dies.

                     (b)  The net value of the Split Dollar
                Insurance described in 4.1 and 4.2 equals or
                exceeds the present value of Executive's Base
                Pay Retirement Supplement.  Present value for
                this purpose shall be determined under the
                actuarial assumptions for calculating
                equivalent benefits under the Tektronix
                Pension Plan, as in effect when the
                determination is made or, if that plan no
                longer exists, under a successor defined
                benefit pension plan.  If Executive
                receives an make any scheduled premium
                payment from the Split Dollar Policy or
                if Executive fails to make any scheduled
                premium payment under the Split Dollar
                Policy, the net value of the Split Dollar
                Policy for purposes of this Section shall
                be increased to the net value that would
                have resulted if such distribution, loan
                or other payment had not been received,
                or such scheduled premium had been paid.

                     (c)  Executive surrenders the policy or
                causes it to lapse.

                     (d)  Two years elapse from the date of
                Executive's retirement.

                5.5  "Base Pay Retirement Supplement" means
           the portion of the retirement benefit provided to
           Executive under his Supplemental Executive
           Retirement Agreement with Tektronix dated March 17,
           1993, that is attributable to base pay and not to
           other types of pay included in "Final Average
           Compensation" as defined in such Agreement.

      2.   Conforming Amendment.

           Section 5.1 (to be renumbered 7.1) is revised by inserting
"except for benefits under Section 5" so the last phrase of the
first sentence of Section 5.1 will read as follows:

           * * *, the benefits provided in this Agreement shall not
           be payable to Executive except for benefits under
           Section 5.

      3.   Effective Date.

           This Amendment shall be effective as of June 23, 1994.

          Tektronix provides retirement benefits for its
employees through the Tektronix Pension Plan (the Pension Plan). 
In addition, Tektronix provides supplemental benefits for
officers through the Tektronix, Inc. Retirement Equalization Plan
(the Retirement Equalization Plan) to make up for Pension Plan
benefits lost because of limits imposed by law.  Tektronix and
Neun have entered into a Split Dollar Life Insurance Agreement
dated as of June 23, 1994.

          Neun is Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of
Tektronix.  Tektronix wishes to supplement benefits provided for
Neun under the Pension Plan and the Retirement Equalization Plan
(collectively, the Retirement Plans; individually, a Retirement
Plan).

      1.  Administration

          This Agreement shall be administered by the
Organization and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors
of Tektronix (the Committee).  The Committee shall interpret the
Agreement and shall make determinations about eligibility and
benefits.  During any period in which there shall be no such
committee, the Board of Directors shall administer this
Agreement.

      2.  Retirement Benefits

          2.1  Neun shall be entitled to retirement benefits
under this Agreement upon Retirement.  "Retirement" means a
termination of employment after age 55 and 5 Years of Service.

          2.2  A "Year of Service" means a 12-month period in
which an employee is continuously employed by Tektronix or an
affiliate as follows:

               (a) Continuous employment shall not be interrupted
by an authorized leave of absence, by disability under 5.1 or by
transfers among Tektronix and its Affiliates, so long as
continuity of service within the group is maintained. 
"Affiliate" means a corporation that is a member of a controlled
group with Tektronix as defined in Section 1563(a) of the
Internal Revenue Code.

               (b) All whole or fractional Years of Service shall
be counted.  Fractional years shall be rounded to the nearest
whole month and aggregated.

          2.3  Neun's RETIREMENT BENEFIT under this Agreement
(RB) shall be a monthly life annuity equal to Final Average
Compensation (FAC) multiplied by a percentage equal to 35 percent
plus twenty-sevenths multiplied by Years of Service (YS) in
excess of five, but no more than 55 percent, minus the Retirement
Plan Offsets (RPO) and the Split Dollar Offset (SDO) and divided
by twelve as follows:

RB = (FACxlesser of {35%+[20/7x(YS in excess of 5)]} or 55%)-(RPO+SDO)
______________________________________________________________________
                                12

          2.4  The retirement benefit formula under 2.3 provides
the following benefit at the ages and Years of Service shown:

               (a)          (b)                (c)

               Age     Years of Service  Before Offsets

               52             2                0%
               53             3                0%
               54             4                0%
               55             5            35.00%
               56             6            37.86%
               57             7            40.71%
               58             8            43.57%
               59             9            46.43%
               60            10            49.29%
               61            11            52.14%
           62 & After    12 or more        55.00%

To receive each increment in column (c), Neun must both attain
the age indicated in column (a) and complete the Years of Service
indicated in column (b).  Attainment of a higher age before
completion of a lesser number of Years of Service shall not
provide him with any greater amount in column (c) than the amount
indicated for such Years of Service.

          2.5  "Final Average Compensation" (FAC) means Neun's
average Compensation during the five consecutive years
immediately preceding termination of Neun's employment. 
"Compensation" means Neun's  base salary, payments under the
Results Share or any successor program, and payments under the
Annual Performance Improvement Plan or any successor program. 
The Company's Board of Directors shall have discretion to include
additional items of cash compensation.  In determining FAC the
following shall apply:

               (a) Years separated by a period for which Neun is
not credited with Service shall be treated as consecutive.

               (b) A year for this purpose shall be the 12
calendar months ending before the Retirement date.

               (c) During periods of reduced compensation because
of such things as leave of absence or disability under 5.1,
compensation shall be credited at the rate being paid at the
start of the period.

          2.6  "Retirement Plan Offsets" (RPO) means the sum of
Neun's benefits under the Retirement Plans, in the form of an
annual annuity for life, determined as follows:

               (a) The RPO shall be calculated at the time Neun
starts to receive benefits under this Agreement.

               (b) If Neun has not started to receive benefits
under a Retirement Plan, Neun's benefits under such Retirement
Plan shall be determined as though Neun had retired and started
to receive benefits under such Retirement Plan on the date Neun
starts to receive benefits under this Agreement.

               (c) If Neun has already started to receive
benefits under a Retirement Plan, benefits under such Retirement
Plan shall be based on Neun's accrued benefit at the time
benefits started under such Retirement Plan.

               (d) The annual life annuity to be offset shall be
the combined Actuarial Equivalents of Neun's accrued benefits
under the Pension Plan and the Retirement Equalization Plan. 
"Actuarial Equivalent" shall be determined on the basis of the
procedures and actuarial assumptions of the Pension Plan.

               (e) If Neun's benefit under a Retirement Plan
commences at the same time and in the same form as the retirement
benefit under this Agreement, the offset shall be the amount of
such benefit, without adjustment under (d).

          2.7  "Split Dollar Offset" means the amount accumulated
or provided under the life insurance policy maintained under the
Split Dollar Life Insurance Agreement dated June 23, 1994 between
Neun and Tektronix (the "Split Dollar Policy").  The Split Dollar
Offset shall be applied as follows:

               (a) If Neun dies before Retirement and a benefit
is provided to the surviving spouse under Section 4, such benefit
will be calculated without the Split Dollar Offset.  The
resulting annuity for the surviving spouse shall then be offset
by an annuity amount that is equal in value to the proceeds
payable to Neun's beneficiaries upon his death under the Split
Dollar Policy, determined as follows:

                   (1) If the spouse receives a life annuity
payment of such proceeds under rates for conversion to a life
annuity provided in the Split Dollar Policy, the calculation of
an equal value annuity shall be based on the Split Dollar Policy
conversion rates.

                   (2) If (1) does not apply, the equal value
annuity shall be an Actuarial Equivalent benefit based on the
factors referenced in 2.6(d).

               (b) Upon Neun's Retirement, the Split Dollar
Offset shall be applied to the retirement benefit as provided
below:

                   (1)  The offset shall be applied at the time
of Retirement, except as follows.  The offset shall be deferred
for the period in which Tektronix continues to make payments to
Neun under Section 5 of Neun's Executive Severance Agreement with
Tektronix dated September 22, 1993 as amended by Amendment No. 1
dated June 23, 1994 to that Agreement.

                   (2)  The retirement benefit shall be offset by
an annuity amount that is equal in value to the remaining cash
surrender value of the Split Dollar Policy less the amount
recoverable by Tektronix under the collateral assignment of such
policy.  If Neun has received any distribution, loan or other
payment from the Split Dollar Policy prior to the date of the
offset, the amount of such payment plus interest determined under
the factors reference in 2.6(d) shall be included in the
offsetting cash surrender value.  If Neun fails to make any
scheduled premium payment under the Split Dollar Policy,
including any payment that would have been scheduled after the
Policy is surrendered or lapses due to action or inaction of
Neun, the offsetting cash surrender value shall be increased as
though the payment had been made.  An equal value annuity shall
be determined as follows:

                        (i) If Neun receives a life annuity
payment from the Split Dollar Policy commencing at the time of
offset under rates for conversion to a life annuity provided in
the Split Dollar Policy, the calculation of an equal value
annuity shall be based on the Split Dollar conversion rates.

                        (ii) If (i) does not apply, the equal
value annuity shall be an Actuarial Equivalent benefit based on
the factors referenced in 2.6(d).

               (c) If the amount of the Split Dollar Offset under
(a) or (b) exceeds the amount of the benefit that is subject to
the offset, no benefit shall be paid pursuant to this Agreement
and the amounts provided to Neun or his beneficiary under the
Split Dollar Policy shall not be affected.

      3. Time and Manner of Payment

         3.1  Retirement benefits under this Agreement shall
start as of the first day of the month after Retirement.  If the
Split Dollar Offset is delayed pursuant to 2.7(b)(1), the
retirement benefit shall start at a level determined without the
Split Dollar Offset and shall be reduced by the amount of such
offset at the time payments to Neun cease under Section 5 of the
Executive Severance Agreement.  

         3.2  Neun may elect the form of retirement benefit as
follows:

         4.2  The spouse's death benefit shall be as follows:

              (a) The amount shall be an annuity equal to the

          8.1  No interest of Neun or his spouse under this
Agreement may be directly or indirectly assigned, transferred,

in any way (an "Assignment").  Any attempted or purported
Assignment of any such interest shall be void and ineffective.

be directed to the address shown on this Agreement or such other
address as a party may specify by notice to the other party.

          8.5  Any dispute or controversy arising under or in
connection with this Agreement shall be settled exclusively by
arbitration in Portland, Oregon in accordance with the Commercial
Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association, and
judgment upon the award rendered by the Arbitrator may be entered
in any Court having jurisdiction thereof. 

          8.6  Tektronix may decide that because of the mental or
physical condition of a person entitled to payments, or because
of other relevant factors, it is in the person's best interest to
make payments to others for the benefit of the person entitled to
payment.  In that event, Tektronix may in its discretion direct
that payments be made to one or more of the following:

               (a)  To a parent or spouse or a child of legal
age.

               (b)  To a legal guardian.

               (c)  To one furnishing maintenance, support, or
hospitalization.
