Explanatory Note
On May 20, 2009, Flextronics International Ltd. (the Company) filed a Preliminary Proxy Statement
for its Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders of the Company
expected to be held in June 2009 (the Preliminary Proxy
Statement) at which the Companys shareholders will vote
on a proposal to approve amendments to certain of the Companys
stock incentive plans to allow a one-time stock option exchange program for eligible employees of the Company and its subsidiaries (the
Option Exchange Program). In connection with the Option Exchange Program, the Company is
herewith filing the Preliminary Proxy Statement.
Additional Information About the Option Exchange Program and Where to Find It
The Preliminary Proxy Statement does not constitute an offer to holders of the Companys
outstanding stock options to exchange those options. If the Option Exchange Program is approved by
the Companys shareholders and, if and when the Option Exchange Program is commenced by the
Company, the Company will provide the eligible participants with written materials explaining the
terms of the Option Exchange Program. Persons who are eligible to participate in the Option
Exchange Program should read these materials carefully, because they will contain important
information about the Option Exchange Program.
The Companys shareholders and option holders will be able to obtain the written materials
described above and other documents filed by the Company with the SEC free of charge from the SECs
website at www.sec.gov. In addition, shareholders and option holders may obtain free copies of the
documents filed by the Company with the SEC by writing the Company at its principal U.S. offices
