If I understand correctly what you wish to do then I think you can
achieve this using a combination of event handlers and external
commands.

Create an event handler to be triggered when the service goes into the
state you are interested in and then from the event handler script
post external commands back into nagios to increase the retry check
interval.

See :-
http://www.nagios.org/developerinfo/externalcommands/commandlist.php

With special attention on the following commands :-
CHANGE_RETRY_HOST_CHECK_INTERVAL
CHANGE_RETRY_SVC_CHECK_INTERVAL

bright blessings,
