Item 4. Description of Securities.
Not applicable.
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
Not applicable.
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Article 155 of the Company’s Constitution provides that, subject to the provisions of and so far as may be permitted by the Singapore Companies Act, Chapter 50 (“ Singapore Companies Act”) and every other Act for the time being in force concerning companies and affecting the Company, every director, auditor, secretary or other officer of the Company shall be entitled to be indemnified by the Company against all costs, charges, losses, expenses and liabilities incurred by him in the execution and discharge of his duties (including, without limitation, where he serves at the request of the Company, as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture or other enterprise) or in relation thereto, including any liability in defending any proceedings, civil or criminal, which relate to anything done or omitted or alleged to have been done or omitted by him as an officer or employee of the Company and in which judgment is given in his favor (or where the proceedings are otherwise disposed of without a finding or admission of any material breach of duty on his part) or in which he is acquitted; or in connection with any application under any statute for relief from liability for any act or omission in which relief is granted to him by the court.
In addition, Article 155 of the Company’s Constitution provides that no director, manager or other officer of the Company 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 Company, through the insufficiency or deficiency of title to any property acquired by order of the directors for the Company or for the insufficiency or deficiency of any security in

4



or upon which any of the moneys of the Company 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, which by law would otherwise attach to them for 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 to a person other than the company (such as third party liability), except when the indemnity is against:
(a)
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

(b)
any liability incurred by the officer: (i) in defending criminal proceedings in which he is convicted; (ii) in defending civil proceedings brought by the company or related company in which judgment is given against him; 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 relief.

Our directors and officers are covered by indemnification agreements with the Company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. These indemnification agreements provide the Company’s officers and directors with indemnification to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. The Company has also obtained a policy of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance 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 Company, the Singapore Companies Act and the indemnification agreements referred to above, and are qualified in their entirety by reference thereto.

Item 9. Undertakings.
The undersigned Company hereby undertakes:
(a) (1)
To file, during any period in which offers or sales of the securities registered hereby 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, as amended (the “Securities Act”); (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 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 clauses (i) and (ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Company pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement.
(2)
That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment 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.
(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.
(b)
The undersigned Company hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Company’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that is incorporated by reference in this 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.
(h)
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Company has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Company of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Company 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 Company 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 Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Dear Sirs

Registration Statement on Form S-8 of Flextronics International Ltd. (“Flextronics”)

1.     (a)    At your request, we have examined the Registration Statement on Form S-8 (excluding all Exhibits thereto) (the “Registration Statement”) to be filed by Flextronics with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission on or about 27 June, 2016, in connection with the registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, of up to 159,057 ordinary shares in the capital of Flextronics (the “Registration Shares”) subject to issuance by Flextronics upon the valid exercise of subscription rights represented by outstanding share options deemed to have been granted by Flextronics (the “Assumed Options”), under the BrightBox Technologies, Inc. 2013 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended (the “BrightBox Technologies 2013 Plan”).
 
(b)
The Assumed Options are deemed to have been granted by Flextronics upon:

(i)
the assumption by Flextronics at the Closing (as defined in the Agreement (defined below)) of certain outstanding options granted by BrightBox Technologies, Inc., (the “BrightBox Technologies Options”) a company organised under the laws of the State of Delaware in the United States of America (“BrightBox Technologies”) under the BrightBox Technologies 2013 Plan prior to the Effective Time; and

(ii)
at the Closing, the conversion of such BrightBox Technologies Options into options to purchase ordinary shares in the capital of Flextronics (“Flextronics Shares”), in connection with Schedule 1.2 of the Stock Purchase Agreement, made and entered into as of 16 May 2016 (the “Agreement”), by and among (1) Flextronics International USA, Inc. (“Flextronics USA”), a corporation incorporated under the laws of the State of California in the United States of America and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Flextronics, (2) BrightBox Technologies, Inc., a corporation incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware in the United States of America, and (3) each of the equity holders of BrightBox Technologies.




Page 2

This opinion is being rendered solely to you in connection with the filing of the Registration Statement. Terms defined and references construed in the Agreement have the same meaning and construction in this opinion unless otherwise defined herein.

2.
For the purpose of rendering this opinion, we have examined:-

(a)
an executed copy of the Agreement (including Schedule 1.2 but excluding all other exhibits and schedules to the Agreement) as provided to us by electronic mail on 7 June 2016;

(b)
in relation to Flextronics, a copy of each of its Constitution, its Certificate of Incorporation of Private Company, its Certificate of Incorporation on Conversion to a Public Company and its Certificate of Incorporation on Change of Name of Company;

(c)
the proceedings taken by Flextronics in assuming the BrightBox Technologies Options in connection with Schedule 1.2 of the Agreement;

(d)
a copy of the resolutions of the shareholders of Flextronics passed at the Annual General Meeting of Flextronics held on 20 August 2015 (the “Shareholders Resolutions”);

(e)
a certified extract of the Minutes of Directors’ Meeting held on 13 May 2016 (the “Board Resolutions”) approving the assumption of the Assumed Options and authorising the procedures for the allotment and issuance of ordinary shares in the capital of Flextronics arising from the exercise of vested Assumed Options (the “Allotment Procedures”); and

(f)
such other documents as we have considered necessary or desirable to examine in order that we may give this opinion.

3. We have assumed for the purpose of rendering this opinion:-

(a)
that the Agreement is within the capacity and powers of, and has been validly authorised by, each party thereto and has been validly executed in the form examined by us for the purpose of rendering this opinion, duly and properly completed, and delivered by or on behalf of each such party thereto;

(b)
the genuineness of all signatures on all documents and the completeness, and the conformity to original documents, of all copies or other specimen documents submitted to us;

(c)
the correctness of all facts stated in the Agreement;

(d)
that copies of Flextronics’ Constitution, Certificate of Incorporation of Private Company, Certificate of Incorporation on Conversion to a Public Company and its Certificate of Incorporation on Change of Name of Company submitted to us for examination are true, complete and up-to-date copies;




Page 3

(e)
that each of the Shareholders Resolutions and the Board Resolutions is true, complete and up-to-date and such resolutions have not been rescinded or modified and all authorisations and approvals conferred thereby remain in full force and effect and that no other resolution or other action has been taken which may affect the validity of those resolutions;

(f)
the extract of the Board Resolutions as certified by the Company Secretary of Flextronics is a true and correct extract of the Board Resolutions;

(g)
that all relevant documents have been provided to us by the officers of Flextronics for inspection for purposes of this opinion;

(h)
that there are no provisions of the laws of any jurisdiction other than Singapore which would be contravened by the execution or delivery of the Agreement and that, in so far as any obligation expressed to be incurred or performed under the Agreement is to be performed in, or is otherwise subject to the laws of, any jurisdiction other than Singapore, its performance will not be illegal or ineffective by virtue of the laws of that jurisdiction;

(i)
that the choice of the laws of the State of California in the United States of America, as the governing law of the Agreement has been made in good faith and will be regarded as a valid and binding selection which will be upheld in the United States federal or state courts in the State of California in the United States of America, as a matter of the laws of the State of California in the United States of America, and all other relevant laws except the laws of Singapore;

(j)
that all consents, approvals, authorisations, licences, exemptions, or orders required from any governmental or other regulatory authorities outside Singapore and all other requirements outside Singapore for the legality, validity and enforceability of the Agreement have been duly obtained or fulfilled and are and will remain in full force and effect and that any conditions to which they are subject have been satisfied;

(k)
no further grants of share options under the BrightBox Technologies 2013 Plan will be made after the Closing; and

(l)
that Flextronics is solvent at the relevant time of issuance of any of the Registration Shares pursuant to the exercise of any such Assumed Options.

4.
Based upon and subject to the foregoing, and subject to any matters not disclosed to us, we are of the opinion that the Registration Shares to be allotted and issued by Flextronics:

(a)
upon the exercise of the subscription rights represented by outstanding Assumed Options deemed to have been granted under the BrightBox Technologies 2013 Plan in accordance with the terms of such



Page 4

Assumed Options, against full payment of the applicable exercise price, pursuant to the Allotment Procedures; and

(b)
when represented by share certificates issued by Flextronics in respect of such Assumed Options,

will be duly authorised by Flextronics for issuance and subscription and will be legally issued, fully-paid and non-assessable.

5.
For the purposes of this opinion, we have assumed that the term "non-assessable" in relation to the Registration Shares to be issued means under Singapore law that holders of such Registration Shares, having fully paid up all amounts due on such Registration Shares as to the issue price thereon, are under no further personal liability to contribute to the assets or liabilities of Flextronics in their capacities purely as holders of such Registration Shares.
    
6.
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.

Yours faithfully

/s/ Allen & Gledhill LLP

SECTION 6.
Terms and Conditions of Share Awards and Purchase Rights.

(a)Share Restriction Agreement. Each Share Award or exercise of a Purchase Right under the Plan (other than upon exercise of an Option) shall be evidenced by a Share Restriction Agreement between the Share Award Recipient or Purchaser and the Company. The Share Restriction Agreement applicable to Share Awards may, alternatively, be designated a Share Award Agreement, and the Share Restriction Agreement applicable to a Purchase Right may, alternatively, be designated a Share Purchase Agreement. Such Share Award or Purchase Right shall be subject to all applicable terms and conditions of the Plan and may be subject to any other terms and conditions which are not inconsistent with the Plan and which the Board of Directors deems appropriate for inclusion in a Share Restriction Agreement. The provisions of the various Share Restriction Agreements entered into under the Plan need not be identical.

(b)Duration of Offers and Nontransferability of Rights. Any right to acquire Shares under the Plan pursuant to a Purchase Right or Share Award shall automatically expire if not accepted or exercised by the Purchaser by execution of the Share Restriction Agreement and completion of all Participant requirements set forth in such Share Restriction Agreement within 60 days after the grant of such right was communicated to the Purchaser by the Company, or such other period as may be specified in the Share Restriction Agreement. Such right shall not be transferable and shall be exercisable only by the Purchaser to whom such right was granted.

(c)Purchase Price. The Purchase Price of Shares to be offered under Purchase Rights issued under the Plan shall not be less than the Fair Market Value of such Shares on the date the Purchase Right is granted. The Purchase Price shall be payable in a form described in Section 8.

(d)Consideration for Share Awards. Normally, Share Awards will be made without any requirement for payment of a cash purchase price by the Share Award Participant; provided that the Board of Directors may determine, in appropriate circumstances, to provide a Share Award at a discount to Fair Market Value, in which case the purchase price payable shall be subject to the same rules applicable to the Purchase Price.

(e)Withholding Taxes. As a condition to the receipt of Shares pursuant to a Share Award or to the purchase of Shares under a Purchase Right, the Participant shall make such arrangements as the Board of Directors may require for the satisfaction of any federal, state, local or foreign withholding tax obligations that may arise in connection with such purchase.

(f)Restrictions on Transfer of Shares. Any Shares issued under the Plan pursuant to a Share Award or Purchase Right shall be subject to such, rights of repurchase pursuant to, and in accordance with, section 76D of the Companies Act, and subject to applicable laws, other transfer restrictions as the Board of

Page 5 of 9



Directors may determine, including in the event of the Termination of the Participant. Such restrictions and obligations shall be set forth in the applicable Share Restriction Agreement.

SECTION 7.
Terms and Conditions of Options.

(a)Share Option Agreement. Each grant of an Option under the Plan shall be evidenced by a Share Option Agreement between the Optionee and the Company. Such Option shall be subject to all applicable terms and conditions of the Plan and may be subject to any other terms and conditions which are not inconsistent with the Plan and which the Board of Directors deems appropriate for inclusion in a Share Option Agreement. The provisions of the various Share Option Agreements entered into under the Plan need not be identical.

(b)Number of Shares. Each Share Option Agreement shall specify the number of Shares that are subject to the Option and shall provide for the adjustment of such number in accordance with Section 9. The Share Option Agreement shall also specify whether the Option is an ISO or a Nonstatutory Option.

(c)Exercise Price. Each Share Option Agreement shall specify the Exercise Price. The Exercise Price of an ISO shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of grant, and a higher percentage may be required by Section 4(b). The Exercise Price of a Nonstatutory Option to purchase newly issued Shares shall not be less than the Fair Market Value of such Shares. Subject to the preceding two sentences, the Exercise Price under an Option shall be determined by the Board of Directors at its sole discretion. The Exercise Price shall be payable in a form described in Section 8.

(d)Withholding Taxes. As a condition to the exercise of an Option, the Optionee shall make such arrangements as the Board of Directors may require for the satisfaction of any federal, state or local withholding tax obligations that may arise in connection with such exercise. The Optionee shall also make such arrangements as the Board of Directors may require for the satisfaction of any federal, state, local or foreign withholding tax obligations that may arise in connection with the disposition of Shares acquired by exercising an Option.

(e)Exercisability. Each Share Option Agreement shall specify the date when all or any installment of the Option is to become exercisable. The exercisability provisions of any Share Option Agreement shall be determined by the Board of Directors at its sole discretion; provided, however, that any Option designated as an ISO shall not be exercisable at any time later than three (3) months after the date of Termination of the Optionee.

(f)Basic Term. The Share Option Agreement shall specify the term of the Option. The term shall not exceed 10 years from the date of grant, and in the case of an ISO a shorter term may be required by Section 4(b). Subject to the preceding sentence, the Board of Directors at its sole discretion shall determine when an Option, or portion of an Option is to expire. A Share Option Agreement may provide for expiration of portions of an Option at intervals prior to expiration of the entire Option term. Except in unusual circumstances, all Share Option Agreements shall provide for expiration prior to the end of the Option's term

Page 6 of 9



in the event of the Termination or death of the Optionee, and any Option designated as an ISO shall not be exercisable at any time later than three (3) months after the date of Termination of the Optionee.

(g)Nontransferability. No Option shall be transferable by the Optionee other than by beneficiary designation, will or the laws of descent and distribution. An Option may be exercised during the lifetime of the Optionee only by the Optionee or by the Optionee's guardian or legal representative. No Option or interest therein may be transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated by the Optionee during the Optionee's lifetime, whether by operation of law or otherwise, or be made subject to execution, attachment or similar process.

(h)No Rights as a Shareholder. An Optionee, or a permitted transferee of an Optionee, shall have no rights as a shareholder with respect to any Shares covered by the Optionee's Option until and unless such person is registered as a shareholder of the Company in the Branch Register of Members of the Company maintained in the United States of America. The registration as aforesaid will be made upon the delivery of Shares to the Optionee when he has submitted a notice of exercise and paid the Exercise Price pursuant to the terms of such Option.

(i)Modification, Extension and Assumption of Options. Within the limitations of the Plan, the Board of Directors may modify, extend or assume outstanding Options or may accept the immediate cancellation of outstanding Options (whether granted by the BrightBox Technologies or another issuer) in return for the grant of new Options for the same or a different number of Shares and at the same or a different Exercise Price, provided that at no time shall the Company acquire a direct or indirect interest in any of the surrendered Options. The foregoing notwithstanding, no modification of an Option shall, without the consent of the Optionee, materially impair the Optionee's rights or materially increase the Optionee's obligations under such Option.

(j)Restrictions on Transfer of Shares. Any Shares issued upon exercise of an Option shall be subject to a right of repurchase pursuant to, and in accordance with, Section 76D of the Companies Act and subject to applicable laws, other transfer restrictions and obligations as the Board of Directors may determine. Such restrictions and obligations shall be set forth in the applicable Share Option Agreement and shall apply in addition to any restrictions that may apply to holders of Shares generally.

Page 7 of 9



similar occurrence, the Board of Directors shall make appropriate adjustments in one or more of (1) the number of Shares available for future grants under Section 5, (ii) the number of Shares covered by each outstanding Option and by each outstanding Purchase Right, and (iii) the Exercise Price under each outstanding Option and the Purchase Price under each outstanding Purchase Right.

(b)Mergers and Consolidations. In the event that the Company is a party to a merger or consolidation, outstanding Options shall be subject to the agreement of merger or consolidation. Such agreement, without the Optionees' consent, may provide for one or more of the following:

(c)Reservation of Rights. Except as provided in this Section 9, an Optionee or Purchaser shall have no rights by reason of (i) any subdivision or consolidation of shares of any class, (ii) the payment of any dividend, or (iii) any other increase or decrease in the number of shares of any class. Any issuance by the Company of shares of any class, or securities convertible into shares of any class, shall not affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number or Exercise Price of Shares subject to an Option. The grant of an Option pursuant to the Plan shall not affect in any way the right or power of the Company to make adjustments, reclassifications, reorganizations or changes of its capital or business structure, to merge or consolidate or to dissolve, liquidate, sell or transfer all or any part of its business or assets.

SECTION 10.
Securities Law Requirements.

Page 8 of 9



Nothing in the Plan or in any Share Restriction Agreement or Option Agreement issued under the Plan shall confer upon the Participant any right to continue as an Employee or as a Service Provider to BrightBox Technologies or any Affiliate for any period of specific duration or interfere with or otherwise restrict in any way the rights of BrightBox Technologies (or any Affiliate employing or retaining the Participant) or of the Purchaser or Optionee, which rights are hereby expressly reserved, to terminate his or her Employment status or status as a Service Provider at any time and for any reason, with or without cause.

SECTION 12.

Shareholder approval shall not be required for any other amendment of the Plan, except to the extent that shareholder approval is required to satisfy applicable requirements imposed by applicable requirements of the Code.

(c)Effect of Amendment or Termination. No Shares shall be issued or sold under the Plan after the termination thereof, except upon exercise of an Option granted prior to such termination.
