ABOUT THIS PROSPECTUS

This prospectus is part of an “automatic shelf” registration statement that we filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) as a “well-known seasoned issuer” as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) utilizing a “shelf” registration process. Under this shelf registration process, we may, from time to time, offer and sell separately or together in any combination the securities described in this prospectus in one or more offerings, and selling securityholders may sell our ordinary shares from time to time in one or more offerings.

CAUTIONARY NOTICE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Except for historical information, certain matters contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus and any accompanying prospectus supplement are, or may be deemed to be forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. The words “will,” “may,” “designed to,” “believe,” “should,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they were made. Because these forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, actual results could differ materially from the expectations expressed in the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements include the risks identified in any accompanying prospectus supplement and those described in Item 1A, “Risk Factors” and Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our 2021 10-K, as updated by annual, quarterly and other reports and documents we file with the SEC after the date of this prospectus and that are incorporated by reference

3

herein or in the applicable prospectus supplement. In addition, new risks emerge from time to time and it is not possible for management to predict all such risk factors or to assess the impact of such risk factors on our business. Given these risks and uncertainties, the reader should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. We claim the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 for our forward-looking statements. We disclaim any obligation to update information contained in these forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as required by law.

Although we undertake no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law, you are advised to consult any additional disclosures we make in our Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the SEC. See “Where You Can Find More Information.”

ENFORCEMENT OF CIVIL LIABILITIES UNDER UNITED STATES FEDERAL SECURITIES LAWS

We are incorporated in Singapore under the Companies Act, Chapter 50 of Singapore (the “Singapore Companies Act”). Some of our officers and directors reside outside the United States and a substantial portion of our assets are located outside the United States. As a result, it may not be possible for investors to effect service of process within the United States upon us or to enforce against us in United States courts judgments obtained in such courts predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the federal securities laws of the United States. Judgments of United States courts based upon the civil liability provisions of the federal securities laws of the United States are not directly enforceable in Singapore courts and there can be no assurance as to whether Singapore courts will enter judgments in original actions brought in Singapore courts based solely upon the civil liability provisions of the federal securities laws of the United States.

There is uncertainty as to whether judgments of courts in the United States based upon the civil liability provisions of the federal securities laws of the United States would be recognized or enforceable in Singapore courts, and there is doubt as to whether Singapore courts would enter judgments in original actions brought in Singapore courts based solely upon the civil liability provisions of the federal securities laws of the United States. A final and conclusive judgment in the federal or state courts of the United States under which a fixed sum of money is payable, other than a sum payable in respect of taxes, fines, penalties or similar charges, may be subject to enforcement proceedings as a debt in the courts of Singapore under the common law doctrine of obligation. In addition, Singapore courts would not recognize or enforce judgments against us, our directors and officers to the extent that the judgment is punitive or penal. It is uncertain as to whether a judgment of the courts of the United States under the civil liability provisions of the federal securities law of the United States would be determined by the Singapore courts to be or not be punitive or penal in nature. Such a determination has yet to be made by any Singapore court. The Singapore courts also may not recognize or enforce a foreign judgment if the foreign judgment is inconsistent with a prior local judgment, contravenes public policy, or amounts to the direct or indirect enforcement of a foreign penal, revenue or other public law.

RISK FACTORS

Our business is subject to uncertainties and risks. You should carefully consider and evaluate all of the information included and incorporated by reference in this prospectus, including the risk factors incorporated by reference from, and discussed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our 2021 10-K, as updated by annual, quarterly and other reports and documents we file with the SEC after the date of this prospectus and that are incorporated by reference herein or in the applicable prospectus supplement. It is possible that our business, financial condition, liquidity or results of operations could be materially adversely affected by any of these risks. The applicable prospectus supplement for any securities we may offer and any applicable free writing prospectus may contain a discussion of additional risks applicable to an investment in us and the particular type of securities we are offering under that prospectus supplement. The risks described in our filings with the SEC, the applicable prospectus supplement or any applicable free writing prospectus are not the only risks facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be not material also may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.

4

USE OF PROCEEDS

Unless otherwise indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, we will use the net proceeds from the sale of our securities offered by this prospectus for general corporate and working capital purposes. Pending these uses, we may invest the net proceeds temporarily. If we decide to use the net proceeds from a particular offering of securities for a specific purpose, we will describe that purpose in the applicable prospectus supplement.

We will not receive any proceeds from sales of securities offered by any selling securityholders under this prospectus.

DESCRIPTION OF ORDINARY SHARES

The following description of our ordinary shares, together with the additional information we include in any applicable prospectus supplement, summarizes the material terms and provisions of the ordinary shares that we may offer from time to time pursuant to this prospectus. While the terms we have summarized below will apply generally to any future ordinary shares that we or certain securityholders may offer, we will describe the particular terms of any offering in more detail in the applicable prospectus supplement. The following description of our ordinary shares and provisions of our Constitution are summaries and are qualified in its entirety by reference to applicable Singapore law and our Constitution, a copy of which has been filed as Exhibit 3.01 to our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 27, 2019 filed with the SEC on October 30, 2019.

References to “Flex,” “we,” “us” and “our” in this “Description of Ordinary Shares” are only to Flex Ltd. and not to any of its subsidiaries.

Ordinary Shares

Our share capital consists of ordinary shares, with no par value per ordinary share. There is no authorized share capital under Singapore law. There is a provision in our Constitution to enable us to issue shares with preferred, deferred or other special rights or such restrictions whether in regard to dividend, voting, return of capital or otherwise as our directors may determine, subject to the provisions of the Singapore Companies Act and every other act for the time being in force concerning companies and affecting our company (collectively, the “Statutes”) and our Constitution and without prejudice to any special right previously conferred on the holders of any existing shares or class of shares. All ordinary shares presently issued are fully paid and existing shareholders are not subject to any calls on ordinary shares. All ordinary shares are in registered form. We cannot, except in the circumstances permitted by the Singapore Companies Act, grant any financial assistance for the acquisition or proposed acquisition of our own ordinary shares.

New Shares

Under applicable Singapore law and our Constitution, new shares may be issued only with the prior approval from our shareholders in a general meeting. General approval may be sought from our shareholders in a general meeting for the issue of shares. Approval, if granted, will lapse at the earlier to occur of:

•

the conclusion of the next annual general meeting;

•

the expiration of the period within which the next annual general meeting is required by law to be held; or

•

the subsequent revocation or modification of approval by our shareholders acting at a duly convened meeting.

Subject to this approval, and the provisions of the Statutes and our Constitution, the directors may allot and issue new shares to such persons on such terms and conditions and with the rights and privileges annexed thereto as such general meeting resolving upon the creation thereof shall direct and if no direction be given as the directors shall determine.

Shareholders

Only persons who are registered in our Register of Members are recognized under Singapore law as shareholders of our company with legal standing to institute shareholder actions against us or otherwise

5

seek to enforce their rights as shareholders. We may close the Register of Members at any time and for one or more periods, but the register may not be closed for an aggregate of more than thirty days in any calendar year.

Transfer of Ordinary Shares

Subject to applicable securities laws in relevant jurisdictions and our Constitution, our ordinary shares are freely transferable. The directors may in their absolute discretion decline to register any transfer of shares on which we have a lien and, in the case of shares not fully paid up, may refuse to register a transfer to a transferee of whom they do not approve, provided, however, that as required by the Singapore Companies Act the directors shall, within 30 days beginning with the day on which the application for a transfer of shares was made, serve a notice in writing to the applicant stating the facts which are considered to justify the refusal. Shares may be transferred by a duly signed instrument of transfer in the usual common form or in any other form which the directors may approve. The directors may decline to register any instrument of transfer unless, among other things, it is presented for registration together with a certificate of payment of stamp duty (if any), the share certificate(s) to which the transfer relates and such other evidence as they may reasonably require to show the right of the transferor to make the transfer. We will replace lost or destroyed certificates for shares upon notice to us and upon, among other things, the applicant furnishing evidence and indemnity as the directors may require and the payment of all applicable fees.

Re-election of Directors

Under article 94 of our Constitution, at each annual general meeting, all of the directors shall retire from office. Under article 95 of our Constitution, retiring directors are eligible for re-election. Under article 90 of our Constitution, any director holding office as a Chief Executive Officer (or an equivalent position) shall, while he or she continues to hold that office, be subject to retirement as the other directors. Under article 100 of our Constitution, our board of directors may appoint any person either to fill a casual vacancy or as an additional director. A director appointed by our board of directors under article 100 of our Constitution shall retire from office at the next annual general meeting after his or her appointment in accordance with article 94 of our Constitution, and is eligible for re-election at that annual general meeting.

Shareholders’ Meetings

We are required to hold an annual general meeting within six months after the end of our fiscal year. Under our Constitution, any general meeting other than the annual general meeting is called an “extraordinary general meeting”. The directors may convene an extraordinary general meeting whenever they think fit, and they must also do so upon the written request of shareholders representing not less than one-tenth of the paid-up shares as at the date of the deposit of the written request (disregarding paid-up shares held as treasury shares) carries the right of voting at general meetings. In addition, two or more shareholders holding not less than one-tenth of our total number of issued shares (excluding treasury shares) may call a meeting of our shareholders.

Unless otherwise required by law or by our Constitution, voting at general meetings is by ordinary resolution, requiring the affirmative vote of a simple majority of the total votes attached to all the fully paid-up shares which are represented at the meeting (of which at least fourteen days’ written notice is given) and voting on such resolution in person or by proxy. An ordinary resolution suffices, for example, for appointments of directors. A special resolution, requiring an affirmative vote of a majority of not less than three-fourths of the total votes attached to all the fully paid-up shares which are represented at the meeting (of which not less than 21 days’ written notice specifying the intention to propose the resolution as a special resolution has been duly given) and voting on such resolution in person or by proxy, is necessary for certain matters under Singapore law, such as an alteration of our Constitution.

Voting Rights

Voting at any meeting of shareholders is by a show of hands unless a poll is duly demanded before or on the declaration of the result of the show of hands. If voting is by a show of hands, every shareholder who is entitled to vote and who is present in person or by proxy or attorney or, in the case of a corporation, by a representative at the meeting has one vote. On a poll, every shareholder who is present in person or

6

by proxy or by attorney or, in the case of a corporation, by a representative, has one vote for every share of which such shareholder holds or represents. A poll may be demanded by any of:

•

the chairman of the meeting;

•

not less than three shareholders who are entitled to vote at the meeting and who are present in person or by proxy or by attorney or in the case of a corporation by a representative;

•

any shareholder or shareholders present in person or by proxy or by attorney or in the case of a corporation by a representative and representing not less than five (5) percent of the total voting rights of all shareholders entitled to vote at the meeting; or

•

any shareholder or shareholders present in person or by proxy or by attorney or in the case of a corporation by a representative and holding shares conferring the right to vote where the aggregate sum paid up on such shares is not less than five (5) percent of the total sum paid up on all the shares conferring the right to vote.

Dividends

At a general meeting, our shareholders may declare dividends, but no dividend will be payable in excess of the amount recommended by the directors. The directors may also declare an interim dividend. No dividend may be paid except out of our profits. Except as otherwise may be provided in special rights as to dividends specified in the terms of issue of any shares (no such shares currently being in issue), all dividends are paid pro rata among the shareholders. To date, we have not declared any cash dividends on our ordinary shares and have no current plans to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

Bonus and Rights Issues

In a general meeting, our shareholders may, upon the recommendation of the directors, by ordinary resolution:

•

issue bonus shares to the shareholders for which no consideration is payable to us, in proportion to their shareholdings; or

•

capitalize any reserves or profits as bonus shares to the shareholders in proportion to their shareholdings.

The directors may also issue to shareholders rights to take up additional shares, in proportion to their shareholdings. These rights are subject to any conditions attached to the issue and the regulations of any stock exchange on which the ordinary shares are listed.

Takeovers

The acquisition of our ordinary shares is regulated by the SFA and the Singapore Code on Take-overs and Mergers.

Under the Singapore Code on Take-overs and Mergers, where:

•

any person acquires whether by a series of transactions over a period of time or not, shares which (taken together with shares held or acquired by parties acting in concert with such person) carry 30% or more of the voting rights of a company; or

•

DESCRIPTION OF DEBT SECURITIES

This prospectus describes certain general terms and provisions of our debt securities and the related indenture. The debt securities will be issued in one or more series under an indenture, between us and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (as amended and supplemented from time to time, the “indenture”), or any successor trustee, which is incorporated by reference as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. When we offer to sell a particular series of debt securities, we will describe the specific terms of that series in one or more prospectus supplements and such description will supplement and, to the extent inconsistent with any portion of the description of our debt securities and the indenture contained in this prospectus, supersede the applicable portion of the description contained in this prospectus.

The indenture is subject to any amendments or supplements we may enter into from time to time as permitted under the indenture. We will file any amendments or supplements to the indenture as exhibits to a Current Report on Form 8-K or a post-effective amendment to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. The statements herein relating to the debt securities and the indenture are summaries and are subject to the detailed provisions of the debt securities and the indenture. The following summary of the material provisions of the indenture is qualified in its entirety by the provisions of the indenture, including definitions of certain terms used in the indenture and provisions made a part of the indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended. This summary may not contain all information that you may find useful. You should review the indenture that is incorporated by reference as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part for additional information.

As used in this description of debt securities, “Flex,” “we,” “us,” and “our,” refer solely to Flex Ltd. and not to any of its subsidiaries.

General

We will describe in one or more prospectus supplements the terms of the series of debt securities that we may offer and the supplemental indenture relating to such series of debt securities. These terms will include the following:

•

the title of the debt securities and ranking (including the terms of any subordination provisions);

•

any limit upon the aggregate principal amount of the debt securities;

8

•

the date or dates on which the principal and premium, if any, of the debt securities is payable;

•

the rate or rates (which may be fixed or variable) at which the debt securities will bear interest, or the manner of calculating such rate or rates, if applicable;

•

the date or dates from which such interest will accrue, the interest payment dates on which such interest will be payable or the manner of determination of such interest payment dates, and the related record dates;

•

the right, if any, to extend the interest payment periods and the duration of that extension;

•

the price or prices at which, the period or periods within which, and the terms and conditions upon which the debt securities may be redeemed, in whole or in part, at our option;

•

our obligation, if any, to redeem, purchase or repay the debt securities pursuant to any sinking fund or otherwise at the option of a holder thereof and the price or prices at which and the period or periods within which and the terms and conditions upon which the debt securities shall be redeemed, purchased or repaid, in whole or in part, pursuant to such obligation;

•

if other than minimum denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, the denominations in which the debt securities will be issuable;

•

the percentage of their principal amount (i.e., price) at which the debt securities will be issued;

•

if the principal amount payable at the stated maturity of the debt securities will not be determinable as of any one or more dates prior to such stated maturity, the amount which will be deemed to be such principal amount as of any such date for any such purpose;

•

whether the debt securities will be issued in global form, and, in such case, the identity of the depositary for such debt securities;

•

any trustees, authenticating agents or paying agents, transfer agents or registrars or any other agents with respect to the debt securities;

•

whether the debt securities are convertible or exchangeable into, cash, ordinary shares or other equity securities or other assets or property of Flex or a combination thereof and the terms and conditions upon which such conversion or exchange shall be effected;

•

the currency in which payments shall be made, if other than U.S. dollars;

•

any deletion from, modification of or addition to the events of default or covenants provided for with respect to the debt securities;

•

any provisions granting special rights to holders when a specified event occurs;

•

any provision of the debt securities that would determine payments on the debt securities by reference to an index or a formula;

•

any special tax implications of the debt securities;

•

whether and upon what terms the debt securities may be defeased if different from the provisions set forth in this prospectus; and

•

any and all additional, eliminated or changed terms that will apply to the debt securities.

The indenture will not limit the aggregate amount of debt securities that we may issue. We may issue debt securities under the indenture up to the aggregate principal amount authorized by our board of directors from time to time.

Flex may from time to time, without notice to, or the consent of, the holders of debt securities of a particular series, increase the principal amount of debt securities of that series by issuing additional debt securities of that series having the same terms and conditions as, and ranking equally and ratably with, debt securities of that series in all respects (except for the issue date, the issue price and, if applicable, the initial interest accrual date of such debt securities and the first interest payment date following the issue date of such additional debt securities). If such additional debt securities are not fungible with the debt securities of

9

such series for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such additional debt securities will have one or more separate CUSIP numbers. Whether or not such additional debt securities are so fungible, the debt securities of any series and any additional debt securities of such series will be treated as a single series for all other purposes under the indenture, and all holders of debt securities of such series will vote together as one class on all matters with respect to such series of debt securities.

Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets

The indenture provides that Flex may not (i) consolidate, merge, combine or amalgamate with or into any other person or convey, transfer or lease its property and assets as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to any other person, or (ii) permit any other person to consolidate, merge, combine or amalgamate with or into Flex, unless:

(a) (1) in the case of a consolidation, merger, combination or amalgamation, Flex is the entity surviving such event, or (2) in the case that Flex consolidates, merges, combines with or into another or amalgamates with or into another person or conveys, transfers or leases its properties and assets as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to any person, such person will expressly assume, by supplemental indenture, the due and punctual payment of the principal of, and any premium and interest on, all of the debt securities, and the performance of Flex’s obligations under the indenture, including, if any debt securities are then secured pursuant to the indenture, any collateral documents relating thereto, and the debt securities issued thereunder;

(b) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no event of default, and no event which after notice or lapse of time or both would become an event of default, will have happened and be continuing; and

(c) certain other conditions are met.

Restrictions Upon Reincorporating, Merging or Consolidating into a Subject Country

The indenture provides that we may not consolidate, merge, combine or amalgamate with or into any other person, whether or not we are the surviving corporation, or convey, transfer or lease our properties and assets as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to any other person, or permit any other person to consolidate, merge, combine or amalgamate with or into us (a “subject transaction”) unless we satisfy specified conditions. If the surviving or resulting transferee, lessee or successor person (the “successor entity”) in a subject transaction is incorporated in any jurisdiction other than the country of Singapore and the United States of America, or any state thereof or the District of Columbia (any such jurisdiction, a “subject country”), then we must satisfy the conditions specified in the clauses below as promptly as practicable, but no later than 60 days following the date of the subject transaction:

•

we shall have delivered to the trustee an opinion of counsel (as specified in the indenture) as to the continued validity, binding effect and enforceability of the indenture and the debt securities and to the further effect that the counsel is not aware of any pending change in, or amendment to, the laws, or any regulations promulgated thereunder, of any subject country in which the proposed successor entity is incorporated or maintains its principal place of business or principal executive office, or any taxing authority thereof or therein, affecting taxation, or any pending execution of or amendment to, or any pending change in application of or official position regarding, any treaty or treaties affecting taxation to which any such subject country is a party, which, in any such case, would permit the successor entity to redeem the debt securities pursuant to any optional redemption upon changes in tax laws provided for under the indenture or any supplemental indenture, it being understood that the counsel may, in rendering the opinion, rely, to the extent appropriate, on opinions of independent local counsel of recognized standing and we may instead deliver two or more opinions of counsel which together cover all of the foregoing matters;

•

we shall have delivered to the trustee a certificate signed by two executive officers of the successor entity as to the continued validity, binding effect and enforceability of the indenture and the debt securities; and

10

•

the successor entity shall, promptly but no later than 60 days following the date of the subject transaction, consent to the jurisdiction of the federal or state courts located in the Borough of Manhattan in the City of New York.

In the event of any subject transaction in which the successor entity is organized and existing under the laws of a subject country, we will indemnify and hold harmless the trustee and each holder of the debt securities from and against any and all present and future taxes, levies, imposts, charges and withholdings, including, without limitation, estate, inheritance, capital gains and other similar taxes, and any and all present and future registration, stamp, issue, documentary or other similar taxes, duties, fees or charges, imposed, assessed, levied or collected by or for the account of any jurisdiction or political subdivision or taxing or other governmental agency or authority thereof or therein on or in respect of the debt securities, the indenture or any other agreement relating to calculations to be performed with respect to the debt securities or any amount paid or payable under any of the foregoing which, in any such case, would not have been imposed had the subject transaction not occurred.

Enforceability of Judgments

A substantial portion of our assets is located outside the U.S. and, as described above under “Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets” we are permitted to merge into, consolidate with or transfer all or substantially all of our properties and assets to a person domiciled outside the U.S. (although we have no present intention of doing so), subject to the conditions described under such heading. Any judgment obtained in the U.S. against us or any successor person, including judgments with respect to payments on debt securities, may not be collectible in the U.S. In addition, there is some doubt as to the enforceability in other countries, in original actions or in actions for enforcement of judgments of U.S. courts, of civil liabilities based solely on the federal securities laws of the U.S., and awards for punitive damages in actions brought in the U.S. or elsewhere may not be enforceable in certain jurisdictions.

SEC Reports

At any time that Flex is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, so long as any debt securities issued under the indenture are outstanding, Flex will furnish to the trustee and make available on its website copies of such annual and quarterly reports and such information, documents and other reports as are required under Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act and applicable to a U.S. corporation (and not a foreign private issuer) subject to such provisions, within 15 days after the filing with the SEC of such information, documents and reports under such provisions. Documents filed by us with the SEC via the EDGAR system (or any successor thereto) will be deemed to be filed with the trustee at the time such documents are filed via such system, though the trustee shall have no obligation to determine whether such filings have been made.

Events of Default

Unless otherwise provided in any applicable prospectus supplement, any of the following events will constitute an event of default under the indenture with respect to any series of debt securities:

(i) default in the payment of any interest on that series of debt securities when the same becomes due and payable, and continuance of such default for a period of 30 days;

(ii) default in payment of principal of that series of debt securities, when due upon maturity, acceleration or redemption or otherwise;

(iii) default in the performance, or breach, of any other covenant, warranty or agreement of Flex in the indenture with respect to such series of debt securities, and the continuance of such default or breach for a period of 90 days after delivery of written notice to Flex by the trustee or to Flex and the trustee by the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the debt securities of all affected series then outstanding specifying such default or breach and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a “notice of default” under the indenture; or

(iv) certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of Flex.

11

The indenture provides that the trustee may withhold notice to the holders of the debt securities of the applicable series of the occurrence of a default with respect to the debt securities of such series (except a default in payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest, if any) if the trustee considers it in the interest of the holders to do so.

The indenture provides that if an event of default arising from specified events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization shall have occurred and be continuing, then the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest on the debt securities of each series then outstanding will become immediately due and payable. The indenture provides that if any other event of default with respect to a series of debt securities shall have occurred and be continuing, then, either the trustee or the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the debt securities of all affected series then outstanding may declare the principal amount of all the debt securities of each such series and any accrued and unpaid interest to be due and payable immediately, but upon certain conditions such declaration and its consequences may be rescinded by the holders of a majority in principal amount of such series of debt securities.

The trustee is under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under the indenture at the request or direction of any of the holders of a series of debt securities unless such holders of the applicable series have offered the trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to the trustee. Subject to the foregoing, holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the debt securities then outstanding under the indenture affected, voting together as a single class, shall have the right, subject to certain limitations, to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the trustee under the indenture or exercising any trust or power conferred on the trustee with respect to such debt securities. The indenture requires the annual filing with the trustee of a certificate by Flex as to whether or not it is in default under the terms of the indenture. Flex is also required to deliver to the trustee, within five calendar days after becoming aware thereof, written notice of any event of default in respect of any series of debt securities or any event which after notice or lapse of time or both would constitute an event of default, its status and what actions Flex intends to take in connection therewith.

Notwithstanding any other provision of the indenture, the right of any holder of any debt security to receive payment of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest, if any, on such debt security on or after the respective due dates therefor and to bring suit for enforcement of any such payment, on or after such respective dates shall not be impaired without the consent of such holder.

Discharge, Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance

Upon the direction of Flex, the indenture shall cease to be of further effect as to a particular series of debt securities (subject to the survival of certain provisions thereof) when (i) either (a) all of the outstanding debt securities of such series have been delivered to the trustee for cancellation (subject to certain exceptions) or (b) all of the debt securities of such series have become due and payable or will become due and payable at their stated maturity within one year or are to be called for redemption within one year and Flex has irrevocably deposited with the trustee, in trust, funds in U.S. dollars or government obligations, in an amount sufficient to pay the entire indebtedness on the debt securities of such series in respect of principal (and premium, if any) and interest to the date of such deposit (if such debt securities have become due and payable) or to the maturity or redemption of the debt securities of such series, as the case may be, (ii) Flex has paid or deposited funds for the payment of all other sums payable under the indenture with respect to such series of debt securities and (iii) certain other conditions are met.

The indenture provides that Flex may elect either to defease and be discharged from (i) any and all obligations with respect to a series of debt securities (except for, among other things, the obligations to register the transfer or exchange of the applicable series of debt securities, to replace temporary or mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen debt securities of such series, and to maintain an office or agency in respect of the debt securities of such series, and the obligation to pay the trustee’s fees and expenses and indemnify the trustee) (“defeasance”) or (ii) certain covenants in the indenture as well as any additional covenants so specified in the applicable supplemental indenture, and any omission to comply with such obligations shall not constitute a default or an event of default (“covenant defeasance”), in either case upon the irrevocable deposit with the trustee, in trust for such purpose, of an amount, in U.S. dollars, and/or government obligations, which will provide money, in an amount sufficient to pay the principal of and any premium and

12

any interest on the debt securities of the applicable series, on the scheduled due dates therefor or, the applicable redemption date, as the case may be.

Such a trust may only be established if, among other things, (i) the applicable defeasance or covenant defeasance does not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, the indenture or any other agreement or instrument to which Flex is a party or by which it is bound, (ii) no event of default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of establishment of such a trust and, with respect to defeasance only, at any time during the period ending on the 123rd day after such date and (iii) Flex has delivered to the trustee either (x) a ruling received from or published by the Internal Revenue Service to the effect that the beneficial owners of the applicable series of debt securities will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such defeasance or covenant defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such defeasance or covenant defeasance had not occurred, or (y) an opinion of counsel (as specified in the indenture) based on a change in applicable U.S. federal income tax law occurring after the date of the indenture to the same effect as the ruling described in clause (x) above.

Modifications and Waivers

The indenture contains provisions permitting Flex and the trustee thereunder, with the consent of the holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the debt securities outstanding under the indenture affected, voting together as a single class, to modify or amend any of the provisions of the indenture and the debt securities, provided that no such modification or amendment shall, without the consent of the holder of each outstanding debt security issued under the indenture so affected, among other things:

•

reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest on the debt securities of such series;

•

reduce the principal amount, or extend the fixed maturity, of the debt securities of such series;

•

reduce any redemption price or repurchase price of such series of debt securities or amend or modify in any manner adverse to the holders of such series our obligation to make such payments, whether through an amendment or waiver of provisions in the covenants, definitions or otherwise;

•

make any debt security of such series payable in money other than that stated in such debt security or other than in accordance with the provisions of the indenture;

•

impair the right of any holder of such series of debt securities to receive payment of principal or interest on the debt securities of such series on or after the due dates therefor, including waiving any default with respect to the payment of principal or interest thereon, or to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to the debt securities of such series on or after such due dates;

•

change the ranking of the debt securities of such series in a manner adverse to the holders of such series; or

•

reduce the aforesaid percentage in principal amount of such debt securities, the consent of the holders of which is required for any such modification or amendment or the consent of whose holders is required for any waiver (of compliance with certain provisions of the indenture or certain defaults thereunder and their consequences) or reduce the requirements for a quorum or voting at a meeting of holders of such debt securities.

The indenture also contains provisions permitting Flex and the trustee, without the consent of the holders of the applicable series of debt securities (or any other debt security outstanding under the indenture), to modify or amend the indenture in order, among other things:

•

to add to the covenants of Flex in the indenture for the benefit of the holders of any series of debt securities or to surrender any right or power conferred upon Flex by the indenture;

•

to add to the events of default for the benefit of the holders of any series of debt securities;

•

to evidence and provide for a successor trustee with respect to the debt securities of any series, or to add to or change any provisions of the indenture to the extent necessary to appoint a separate trustee for a specific series of debt securities;

13

•

to secure or guarantee a series of debt securities;

•

to cure any ambiguity or defect, or correct or supplement any provision therein which may be inconsistent with any other provisions therein, or to make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under the indenture which shall not be inconsistent with the provisions of the indenture and not adversely affect the rights of the holders of any debt securities issued thereunder in any material respect; or

•

to conform the text of the indenture or the debt securities of any series to any provision of the “Description of Notes” section or equivalent section of any prospectus, prospectus supplement, offering memorandum, offering circular or any other document pursuant to which the debt securities of such series were offered.

The holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the debt securities outstanding under the indenture affected, voting together as a single class, may, on behalf of all holders of such debt securities, waive any past default with respect to all such debt securities and its consequences, except a default in the payment of the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest, if any, on any debt securities outstanding under the indenture or in respect of a covenant or provision which cannot be modified or amended without the consent of each holder of such outstanding debt securities.

Global Securities

We will issue each series of debt securities as one or more global securities in book-entry form only, unless we specify otherwise in a prospectus supplement. A global security represents one or any other number of individual debt securities. Generally, all debt securities represented by the same global securities will have the same terms.

Each global security will be registered in the name of a financial institution or its nominee that we select and deposited with its custodian. The financial institution that we select for this purpose is called the depositary. Unless we specify otherwise in a prospectus supplement, The Depository Trust Company, New York, New York, known as DTC, will be the depositary for all debt securities issued in book-entry form.

A global security may not be transferred to or registered in the name of anyone other than the depositary or its nominee, unless special termination situations arise. As a result of these arrangements, the depositary, or its nominee, will be the sole registered owner and holder of all debt securities represented by a global security, and investors will be permitted to own only beneficial interests in a global security. Beneficial interests must be held by means of an account with a broker, bank or other financial institution that in turn has an account with the depositary or with another institution that does. Thus, an investor whose security is represented by a global security will not be a holder of the debt security, but only an indirect holder of a beneficial interest in the global security. No owner of a beneficial interest in a global security will be able to transfer such interest except in accordance with DTC’s applicable procedures and the applicable procedures of its direct and indirect participants.

Under the indenture, only the person in whose name a debt security is registered on the books of the trustee or other registrar under the indenture is recognized as the holder of that debt security. Consequently, for debt securities issued in global form, we will recognize only the depositary as the holder of the debt securities and we will make all payments on the debt securities to the depositary or its nominee. Flex expects that DTC or its nominee, upon receipt of any such payment, will immediately credit DTC participants’ accounts with payments proportional to their respective beneficial interests in the principal amount of the relevant global security as shown on the records of DTC. Flex also expects that payments by DTC participants to owners of beneficial interests will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices, as is now the case with securities held for the accounts of customers registered in the names of nominees for such customers. Such payments will be the responsibility of such participants, and none of Flex, the trustee, the custodian or any paying agent or registrar will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial interests in any global security or for maintaining or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial interests.

14

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

The following describes generally the various methods we or the selling securityholders, if applicable, may use to distribute the securities offered under this prospectus from time to time. Each prospectus supplement will describe the particular plan of distribution for the securities offered under that prospectus supplement.

We or the selling securityholders, if applicable, may sell the securities in one or more of the following ways (or in any combination) from time to time:

•

to or through underwriters or dealers;

•

in short or long transactions;

•

directly to a limited number of purchasers or to a single purchaser;

•

through agents;

•

through a combination of any of these methods of sale;

•

through any other methods described in the applicable prospectus supplement.

The applicable prospectus supplement will state the terms of the offering of the securities, including:

•

the name or names of any underwriters, dealers or agents;

•

the purchase price of such securities and the proceeds to be received by us, if any;

•

any underwriting discounts or agency fees and other items constituting underwriters’ or agents’ compensation;

•

details regarding over-allotment options under which underwriters may purchase additional securities from us, if any;

•

any public offering price;

•

any discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers; and

•

any securities exchanges on which the securities may be listed.

Any public offering price and any discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers may be changed from time to time.

If we or the selling securityholders, if applicable, use underwriters in the sale, the securities will be acquired by the underwriters for their own account and may be resold from time to time in one or more transactions, including:

•

negotiated transactions;

•

at a fixed public offering price or prices, which may be changed;

•

“at the market offerings,” within the meaning of Rule 415(a)(4) of the Securities Act, to or through a market maker or into an existing trading market, on an exchange or otherwise;

•

at prices related to prevailing market prices; or

•

at negotiated prices.

Unless otherwise stated in a prospectus supplement, the obligations of the underwriters to purchase any securities will be conditioned on customary closing conditions and the underwriters will be obligated to purchase all of such series of securities, if any are purchased.

We or the selling securityholders, if applicable, may sell the securities through agents from time to time. The applicable prospectus supplement will name any agent involved in the offer or sale of the securities and any commissions we pay to them. Generally, any agent will be acting on a best-efforts basis for the period of its appointment.

15

We or the selling securityholders, if applicable, may authorize underwriters, dealers or agents to solicit offers by certain purchasers to purchase the securities from us at the public offering price set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement pursuant to delayed delivery contracts providing for payment and delivery on a specified date in the future. The contracts will be subject only to those conditions set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement, and the prospectus supplement will set forth any commissions we pay for solicitation of these contracts.

Underwriters and agents may be entitled under agreements entered into with us and/or the selling securityholders, if applicable, to indemnification by us against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act or to contribution with respect to payments which the underwriters or agents may be required to make. Underwriters and agents may be customers of, engage in transactions with, or perform services for us and our affiliates in the ordinary course of business.

Each series of securities issued pursuant to this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement, other than our ordinary shares, which are listed on The Nasdaq Global Select Market, will be a new issue of securities and will have no established trading market. Any underwriters to whom securities are sold for public offering and sale may make a market in the securities, but such underwriters will not be obligated to do so and may discontinue any market making at any time without notice. The securities, other than our ordinary shares, may or may not be listed on a national securities exchange.

In order to facilitate the offering of the securities, any underwriters may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of the securities or any other securities the prices of which may be used to determine payments on such securities. Specifically, any underwriters may overallot in connection with the offering, creating a short position for their own accounts. In addition, to cover overallotments or to stabilize the price of the securities or of any such other securities, the underwriters may bid for, and purchase, the securities or any such other securities in the open market. Finally, in any offering of the securities through a syndicate of underwriters, the underwriting syndicate may reclaim selling concessions allowed to an underwriter or a dealer for distributing the securities in the offering if the syndicate repurchases previously distributed securities in transactions to cover syndicate short positions, in stabilization transactions or otherwise. Any of these activities may stabilize or maintain the market price of the securities above independent market levels. Any such underwriters are not required to engage in these activities and may end any of these activities at any time.

SELLING SECURITYHOLDERS

Information about selling securityholders, where applicable, will be set forth in a prospectus supplement, in an amendment to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, or in filings we make with the SEC under the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference.

Article 152 of the registrant’s Constitution provides that, subject to the provisions of and so far as may be permitted by the Singapore Companies Act, Chapter 50 (the “Singapore Companies Act”) and every other act for the time being in force concerning companies and affecting the registrant, every director, auditor, secretary or other officer of the registrant shall be entitled to be indemnified by the registrant against all costs, charges, losses, expenses and liabilities incurred or to be incurred by him or her in the execution and discharge of his or her duties (including, without limitation, where he or she serves at the request of the registrant as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture or other enterprise) or in relation thereto.

In addition, article 152 of the registrant’s Constitution provides that no director, secretary or other officer of the registrant shall be liable for the acts, receipts, neglects or defaults of any other director or officer, or for joining in any receipt or other act for conformity, or for any loss or expense happening to the registrant, through the insufficiency or deficiency of title to any property acquired by order of the directors for or on behalf of the registrant or for the insufficiency or deficiency of any security in or upon which any of the moneys of the registrant are invested or for any loss or damage arising from the bankruptcy, insolvency or tortious act of any person with whom any moneys, securities or effects are deposited, or left or for any other loss, damage or misfortune which happens in the execution of the duties of his or her office or in relation thereto, unless the same happens through his or her own negligence, willful default, breach of duty or breach of trust.

Section 172 of the Singapore Companies Act prohibits a company from indemnifying its officers against any liability attaching to them in connection with any negligence, default, breach of duty or breach of trust in relation to the company (the “Liability”). However, a company is not prohibited from (a) purchasing and maintaining for any such officer, insurance against any such Liability, or (b) indemnifying such officer against any liability incurred by him or her to a person other than the company (such as third party liability), except when the indemnity is against:

II-1

•

any liability of the officer to pay: (i) a fine in criminal proceedings; or (ii) a sum payable to a regulatory authority by way of a penalty in respect of non-compliance with any requirement of a regulatory nature (howsoever arising); or

•

any liability incurred by the officer: (i) in defending criminal proceedings in which he or she is convicted; (ii) in defending civil proceedings brought by the company or related company in which judgment is given against him or her; or (iii) in connection with an application for relief under sections 76A(13) or 391 of the Singapore Companies Act in which the court refuses to grant him or her relief.

The registrant’s directors and officers are covered by indemnification agreements with the registrant and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the registrant. These indemnification agreements provide the registrant’s officers and directors with indemnification to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. The registrant has also obtained a directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy that will insure directors and officers against the cost of defense, settlement or payment of a judgment under certain circumstances which are permitted under the Singapore Companies Act.

The foregoing summaries are necessarily subject to the complete text of the Constitution of the registrant, the Singapore Companies Act and the indemnification agreements referred to above, and are qualified in their entirety by reference thereto.

Exhibits.

See the Exhibit Index immediately preceding the signature page hereto for a list of exhibits filed as part of this registration statement, which Exhibit Index is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 17.

Undertakings.

(a)   The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(1)   To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

(i)   To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

(ii)   To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and

(iii)   To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i), (a)(1)(ii) and (a)(1)(iii) above do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in this registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the registration statement.

(2)   That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered herein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

II-2

(3)   To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(4)   That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser:

(A)   Each prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and

(B)   Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii), or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by Section 10(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date.

(5)   That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities: The undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

(i)   Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

(ii)   Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;

(iii)   The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and

(iv)   Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

(b)   The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(c)   Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission

II-3

such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

will be duly authorised by Flex for issuance and will be legally issued, fully-paid and non-assessable;

(c) Flex has the corporate power and capacity to perform its obligations under the Debt Securities; and

(d) the Debt Securities, upon issuance and delivery of certificates (or book-entry notation if uncertificated) for such Debt Securities against payment therefor of such lawful consideration as the Board (or an authorised committee thereof) may determine, and, if such Debt Securities are issued in registered form, entries in respect thereof having been duly made in the register maintained in accordance with the Indenture, will be duly authorised by Flex for issuance, legally issued and constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of Flex, enforceable in accordance with their terms.

6. For the purposes of this opinion, we have assumed that the term “non-assessable” in relation to the Shares to be issued (including any Shares duly issued upon the exchange or conversion of Debt Securities which are exchangeable or convertible into Shares) means under Singapore law that holders of such Shares, having fully paid up all amounts due on such Shares as to the issue price thereon, are under no further personal liability to contribute to the assets or liabilities of Flex in their capacities purely as holders of such Shares.

6

7. The term “enforceable” as used above means that the obligations assumed or to be assumed by Flex under the Indenture and the Debt Securities are of a type which the Singapore courts enforce. It does not mean that those obligations will necessarily be enforced in all circumstances in accordance with their terms. In particular:

(a) enforcement may be limited by prescription or lapse of time, bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, reorganisation and other laws of general application relating to or affecting the rights of creditors;

(b) enforcement may be limited by general principles of equity – for example, equitable remedies may not be available where damages are considered to be an adequate remedy;

(c) if any obligation is to be performed in a jurisdiction outside Singapore, it may not be enforceable in Singapore to the extent that performance would be illegal or contrary to public policy under the laws of that jurisdiction;

(d) any provision in the Indenture or the Debt Securities which provides that certain calculations and/or certifications will be conclusive and binding (i) will not be effective if such calculations and/or certifications are fraudulent or contain any manifest errors, and (ii) will not necessarily prevent judicial enquiry into the merits of any claim by an aggrieved party;

(e) any provision in the Indenture which provides, or which has the effect of providing, for the payment of an increased amount by reason of any default may not be enforceable in a Singapore court if it is construed as a penalty;

(f) provisions in the Indenture, if any, restricting competition or trade may not be enforceable as contrary to public policy in Singapore unless a Singapore court considers that such provisions are reasonably necessary for the protection of a legitimate business interest;

(g) claims may become barred under the Limitation Act, Chapter 163 of Singapore or may be or become subject to a defence of set-off or counterclaim;

(h) any provision in any of the Indenture or the Debt Securities as to severability may not be binding under the law of Singapore and the question of whether or not provisions which are illegal, invalid or unenforceable may be severed from other provisions in order to save such other provisions depends on the nature of the illegality, invalidity or unenforceability in question and would be determined by a Singapore court at its discretion;

(i) any term of an agreement may be amended orally by all the parties notwithstanding provisions to the contrary in any of the Indenture or the Debt Securities;

7

(j) the rate of interest recoverable after judgment in the High Court of Singapore is limited to 5.33% p.a. or:

(i) such other rate fixed by the Chief Justice of Singapore;

(ii) such lower rate as may be directed by the High Court; or

(iii) unless the parties have agreed otherwise;

(k) a Singapore court may refuse to give effect to clauses in any of the Indenture and the Debt Securities in respect of the costs of unsuccessful litigation brought before a Singapore court or where the court has itself made an order for costs;

(l) a Singapore court may stay proceedings if concurrent proceedings are brought elsewhere and/or if there is another clearly more appropriate forum than Singapore;

(m) if it is necessary to initiate any legal proceedings in Singapore by serving a writ outside the jurisdiction, the leave of court (as to which the court has a discretion) would have to be obtained;

(n) the courts of Singapore are bound to follow judicial precedents laid down by the superior courts of Singapore, however, the Court of Appeal (which is the highest court in Singapore) has power to depart from such precedents where adherence will cause injustice in a particular case or constrain the development of law in conformity with the circumstances of Singapore;

(o) we express no opinion regarding the right or ability of any party to recover against any other party for diminution in the value of equity securities held by such party;

(p) where under the Indenture or, where applicable, any Security, any person is vested with a discretion or may determine a matter in its opinion, that party may be required to exercise its discretion in good faith, reasonably and for a proper purpose, and to form its opinion in good faith and on reasonable grounds;

(q) enforcement of any provision of the Indenture may be limited if a court in Singapore holds the relevant provision to have been frustrated by events happening after the execution of the Indenture;

(r) a party to a contract may be able to avoid its obligations under that contract (and may have other remedies) where it has been induced to enter into that contract by a misrepresentation or other vitiating factors and the courts of Singapore will generally not enforce an obligation if there has been fraud;

(s) any provision in the Indenture or, where applicable, any Security which purports to excuse or protect any party against its own negligence or misconduct or which purports to apply notwithstanding the negligence or misconduct of any party, or excusing a party from a liability or duty otherwise owed, may be limited by law or may not be given effect by the courts of Singapore;

8

(t) whilst a court of Singapore has power to give judgment in a currency other than Singapore dollars, if, subject to the terms of the contract, it is the currency which most truly expresses the plaintiff’s loss, it has the discretion to decline to do so;

(u) it is uncertain whether the parties can agree in advance the governing law of claims connected with the contract but which are not claims on the contract, such as a claim in tort;

(v) indemnity provisions in the Indenture and the Debt Securities may not be binding under the laws of Singapore to the extent that performance would be illegal or contrary to public policy under the laws of Singapore;

(w) we express no opinion on the legality or enforceability of the performance by Flex of any obligations of indemnification or contribution set forth in the Indenture;

(x) to the extent that any matter is expressly to be determined by future agreement or negotiation, the relevant provision in the Indenture may be unenforceable or void for uncertainty;

(y) any provision of the Indenture stating that a failure or delay, on the part of any party, in exercising any right or remedy under the Indenture shall not operate as a waiver of such right or remedy may not be effective where one party’s conduct or representations had led the other party to reasonably conclude that the party has agreed to waive his rights, notwithstanding this “no waiver” provision;

(z) provisions in any of the Indenture or the Debt Securities relating to any additional interest or other sum imposed on any of the parties to the Indenture or the Debt Securities where it has defaulted in the performance of any of its obligations, may not be enforceable in a Singapore court if they are construed as a penalty;

(aa) a court in Singapore will not be automatically bound to stay proceedings brought in its jurisdiction despite the existence of an exclusive jurisdiction provision in an agreement naming the foreign jurisdiction where the proceedings should be brought. The Singapore courts have the discretion as to whether or not to grant an application for a stay notwithstanding such an exclusive jurisdiction clause;

(bb) it is possible that a court in Singapore would hold that any judgment (whether in Singapore or elsewhere) given in relation to the Indenture supersedes the specific provisions of the Indenture for all intents and purposes, with the effect that any obligations imposed upon each of the parties under the Indenture, which are expressed to apply both before and after judgment, might not be held to survive any judgment;

(cc) certain laws, directives, orders and other regulations (whether relating to United Nations sanctions or otherwise) have in the past been and may from time to time be enacted, passed or issued, the effect of which as a matter of Singapore law might be to restrict the making of any payment and/or the performance of any other obligation under the Indenture;

9

(dd) except as may be provided under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act, Chapter 53B of Singapore, under general principles of Singapore law, a person who is not a contracting party to an agreement is not entitled to the benefits of the agreement and may not enforce the agreement;

(ee) we express no opinion on tax matters and in particular express no opinion on the tax consequences of any transaction contemplated by the Indenture or any related document; and

(ff) we express no opinion on the irrevocability of the appointment of an agent to accept service of process.

8. As the primary purpose of our professional engagement was not to establish or confirm factual matters or financial, accounting or statistical matters and because of the wholly or partially non-legal character of many of the statements contained in the Registration Statement, we express no opinion or belief on and do not assume any responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or fairness of any of the statements contained in the Registration Statement and we make no representation that we have independently verified the accuracy, completeness or fairness of such statements. Without limiting the foregoing, we express no opinion or belief on, and assume no responsibility for, and have not independently verified the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the financial statements and schedules and other financial and statistical data included or incorporated in the Registration Statement, and we have not examined the accounting, financial or statistical records from which such financial statements, schedules and data are derived.

9. We are not responsible for investigating or verifying the accuracy or completeness of any facts or information, including statements of foreign law, or the reasonableness of any assumptions or statements of opinion or intention contained in the Registration Statement, or any document described in paragraph 2. In addition, we are not responsible for investigating or verifying that no material facts have been omitted from the Registration Statement or any document described in paragraph 2.

10. We express no opinion as to the validity, binding effect or enforceability of any provision in the Indenture or, where applicable, the Securities by reference to a law other than that of Singapore, or as to the availability in Singapore of remedies which are available in other jurisdictions.

11. This opinion relates only to the laws of general application of the Republic of Singapore as at the date hereof and as currently applied by the courts of the Republic of Singapore, and is given on the basis that it will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Republic of Singapore. We have made no investigation of, and do not express or imply any views on, the laws of any country other than the Republic of Singapore.

12. With respect to matters of fact material to this opinion, we have relied on the statements of the responsible officers of Flex.

13. Our advice is strictly limited to matters stated in this opinion and is not to be construed as extending by implication to all the documents listed in paragraph 2 above, or to any other matter or document in connection with, or referred to, in such document.

14. We consent to the use and filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and further consent to all references to us in the Registration Statement (including the reference to our name under the caption “Legal Matters”).

15. This opinion is addressed to Flex solely for its own benefit. Save for the filing of this opinion with the SEC as an exhibit to the Registration Statement, it is not to be transmitted to, nor is it to be relied upon by, any other person or quoted or referred to in any public document or filed with any governmental agency or other person without our consent in writing. We do not accept any liability to anyone other than Flex (even though you may have provided a copy to another person in accordance with the terms of this paragraph) without our express consent.

16. This opinion is given on the basis that there has been no amendment to or termination or replacement of the documents, authorisations and approvals referred to in paragraph 2 of this opinion.

Re: Registration Statement on Form S-3

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as special United States counsel to Flex Ltd., a company organized under the laws of Singapore (the “Company”), in connection with the preparation and filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) of a registration statement on Form S-3 (the “Registration Statement”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), relating to the registration under the Securities Act and the proposed issuance and sale from time to time pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act, of (i) ordinary shares, no par value and (ii) debt securities of the Company, which may be issued in one or more series (the “Debt Securities”). Unless otherwise specified in the applicable prospectus supplement, the Debt Securities will be issued under the Indenture, dated as of June 6, 2019 between the Company, acting through its Bermuda branch, and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “Base Indenture”).

In rendering the opinion expressed below, we have examined originals or copies of the Base Indenture and such other agreements, instruments and documents as we have deemed necessary or appropriate as a basis for the opinion set forth herein.  In our examination of the aforesaid documents, we have assumed, without any independent investigation or verification of any kind, the legal capacity of all persons, the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals or duplicate originals, and the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as certified, conformed, photostatic or facsimile copies and the authenticity of the originals of such latter documents. As to all matters of fact, we have relied on the representations and statements of fact made in the documents so reviewed, and we have not independently established the facts so relied on.

In connection with the opinion expressed below, we also have assumed that, at the time of the issuance, sale and delivery of any series of Debt Securities (i) the Registration Statement (including all necessary post-effective amendments), will be effective under the Securities Act, (ii) the Base Indenture shall have been duly qualified under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, (iii) an appropriate prospectus supplement with respect to such Debt Securities shall have been prepared, delivered and filed with the Commission in compliance with the Securities Act and the applicable rules and regulations thereunder, (iv) a definitive purchase, underwriting or similar agreement with respect to such Debt Securities shall have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other action of the Company and duly executed and delivered by the Company and the other parties thereto, (v) the terms and conditions of such Debt Securities shall have been duly established by a supplemental indenture in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Base Indenture (such supplemental indenture together with the Base Indenture, the “Applicable Indenture”), (vi) the Applicable Indenture shall have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other action of the Company and duly executed and delivered by the Company and the relevant trustee, (vii) such Debt Securities shall have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other action of the Company and duly executed (in the case of certificated Debt Securities), delivered and authenticated in accordance with the terms of the Applicable Indenture and issued and sold for the consideration set forth in the applicable definitive purchase, underwriting or similar agreement, (viii) the Board of Directors of the Company, including any duly authorized committee thereof, shall have taken all other necessary corporate action to approve the issuance, sale and terms of such Debt Securities, and (ix) each of the parties to the Applicable Indenture, such Debt Securities and the applicable definitive purchase, underwriting or similar agreement has the power, corporate or otherwise, to enter into, deliver and perform all of its obligations thereunder.

Based upon the foregoing and subject to the further assumptions, qualifications and limitations set forth below, we are of the opinion that, with respect to any series of Debt Securities to be offered and sold by the Company, such Debt Securities will be valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their respective terms.

Our opinion is subject to the effects of (a) bankruptcy, insolvency (including, without limitation, all laws relating to preferences, fraudulent transfers and fraudulent conveyances), suspension of payments, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights, (b) general equitable principles (including, without limitation, concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing, regardless of any purported waiver of such concepts), regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding at law or equity, (c) principles limiting the availability of the remedy of specific performance or injunctive relief, (d) an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, (e) provisions of law that require that a judgment for money damages rendered by a court in the United States be expressed only in United States dollars, (f) limitations by any governmental authority that limit, delay or prohibit the making of payments outside the United States, and (g) generally applicable laws that (i) provide for the enforcement of oral waivers or modifications where a material change of position in reliance thereon has occurred or provide that a course of performance may operate as a waiver, (ii) limit the availability of a remedy under certain circumstances where another remedy has been elected, (iii) limit the enforceability of provisions releasing, exculpating or exempting a party from, or requiring indemnification or contribution of a party for, liability for its own action or inaction, to the extent the action or inaction involves negligence, gross negligence, recklessness, willful misconduct or unlawful conduct, (iv) may, where less than all of a contract may be unenforceable, limit the enforceability of the balance of the contract to circumstances in which the unenforceable portion is not an essential part of the agreed exchange, (v) may limit the enforceability of provisions providing for compounded interest, imposing increased interest rates or late payment charges upon delinquency in payment or default or providing for liquidated damages or for premiums or penalties upon acceleration or (vi) limit the waiver of rights under usury laws. We express no opinion as to whether, or the extent to which, the laws of any particular jurisdiction apply to the subject matter hereof, including, without limitation, the enforceability of the governing law provision contained in the Debt Securities or the Applicable Indenture. Furthermore, the manner in which any particular issue relating to the opinion would be treated in any actual court case would depend in part on facts and circumstances particular to the case and would also depend on how the court involved chose to exercise the wide discretionary authority generally available to it.

In addition, in rendering the foregoing opinion, we have assumed that (i) the Company is, and will at the time of the issuance, sale and delivery of any series of Debt Securities be, validly existing as a corporation in good standing under Singapore law, (ii) each series of Debt Securities and the Applicable Indenture governing such series of Debt Securities will be governed by the internal laws of the State of New York, (iii) each Applicable Indenture and the applicable definitive purchase, underwriting or similar agreement will constitute legally valid and binding obligations of each of the parties thereto other than, solely under the laws of the State of New York, the Company, enforceable against each of them in accordance with their respective terms, and (iv) that the status of each of the Applicable Indentures and the applicable definitive purchase, underwriting or similar agreements as legally valid and binding obligations of the parties will not be affected by any (a) breaches of, or defaults under, agreements or instruments, (b) violations of statutes, rules, regulations or court or governmental orders, or (c) failures to obtain required consents, approvals or authorizations from, or to make required registrations, declarations or filings with, governmental authorities.

The foregoing opinion is limited to the matters expressly set forth herein, and no opinion is implied or may be inferred beyond the matters expressly stated.

This opinion is limited to questions arising under the laws of the State of New York as in effect on the date hereof, and we express no opinion as to any law other than the laws of such jurisdiction. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this opinion does not cover any matters arising under the laws of the jurisdiction of organization of the Company, or other political subdivisions thereof, or under any treaties or conventions to which such jurisdiction may be a party, or by which it may be bound.
