Dear Xxxxx:
I am pleased to confirm that Flextronics International USA, Inc. (the “Company”) has agreed to
provide you with a deferred long term incentive bonus in return for services to be rendered in the
future as an employee of the Company (the “Deferred Bonus”). The Deferred Bonus will equal thirty
percent (30%) of your annual base salary in effect on July 1, 2005, and on July 1st of
each subsequent year. Thus, on July 1, 2005, subject to the limitations below, and on each
subsequent July 1st on which you are eligible to earn the Deferred Bonus, you will earn
a Deferred Bonus equal 30% of your annual base salary in effect on that day.
Before July 1st of each subsequent year, the Company will make a determination, in
its sole and absolute discretion, of your eligibility to earn the Deferred Bonus for that July
1st. From time to time, the Company may, in its sole and absolute discretion, make
additional contributions to your Deferred Bonus. The Company will make an initial discretionary
contribution to your Deferred Bonus of $400,000 on July 1, 2005. The Company reserves the right to
amend or terminate the Deferred Bonus at any time for all amounts of the Deferred Bonus that have
not been earned on the date of the amendment or termination. If your employment with the
Company is terminated for any reason, you will no longer be eligible to earn the Deferred Bonus.
The Deferred Bonus will not be paid currently to you. Instead, the amount of the Deferred
Bonus will be credited to the account (the “Deferral Account”) established on your behalf under the
Flextronics International USA, Inc. 2005 Senior Management Deferred Compensation Plan (the
“Deferred Compensation Plan”). (This agreement will constitute the Award Agreement referred to in
Section 3 of your Deferral Agreement entered into pursuant to the Deferred Compensation Plan.)
The Deferred Account will vest as follows: One-third of the unvested balance of the Deferral
Account will vest on the first July 1st that occurs at least one year after the day that
(i) the sum of your age and your years of service with the Company equals or exceeds 60 and (ii)
you have fulfilled at least five years of service with the Company (the “First Vesting Day”).
One-half of the remaining unvested balance of the Deferral Account will vest one year after the
First Vesting Day (the “Second Vesting Day”). Accordingly 2/3rds of the Deferral Account
will be vested on the Second Vesting Day
(assuming no accelerated vesting has occurred as a result of a Change of Control, as addressed
below). The remaining unvested portion of the Deferral

Page 2
Account will vest one year after the Second Vesting Day (the “Third Vesting Day”). Thus, the
Deferred Account will be 100% vested on the Third Vesting Day.
In particular, we understand that, on July 1, 2005 you will be 37 years old and will have 11
years of service with the Company, so that the sum of your age and years of service will be 48.
Therefore, if you remain continuously employed with the Company until July 1, 2012, that day will
be the first July 1st that occurs at least one year after the first the day on which
your years of service plus your age will equal or exceed 60. Accordingly, that day will be the
First Vesting Day, and 1/3rd of the unvested balance of your Deferral Account will vest
on that day. One-half of the remaining unvested balance of your Deferral Account will vest on July
1, 2013, i.e., the Second Vesting Day; and the remaining unvested portion of your Deferral Account
will vest on July 1, 2014, i.e., the Third Vesting Day.
Any amounts of the Deferred Bonus that are earned when any portion of your Deferral Account
has already vested will vest as if they had been earned before any portion was vested. That is, the
percentage of any such Deferred Bonus that equals the vested percentage of your Deferral Account on
the earning day will be credited to the vested portion of the Deferral Account, and the remainder
will be credited to the unvested portion of your Deferral Account, which will vest in accordance
with the normal vesting schedule. The entire amount of any Deferred Bonus earned on or after the
Third Vesting Day will be credited to the vested portion of the Deferral Account when earned, since
the Deferral Account will be 100% vested on and after that date.
Special vesting rules apply in the event of your death or a “Change of Control” as defined in
the Deferred Compensation Plan. Specifically, your account shall be 100% vested upon your death, if
you are employed with the Company at that time. Upon a “Change of Control” as defined in the
Deferred Compensation Plan, if you are still employed with the Company you will be deemed to have
vested in that percentage of any unvested portion of the Deferred Account equal to the number of
complete months during which you have remained continuously employed with the company during the
nine-year period from July 1, 2005 through July 1, 2014 divided by 108. Any portion of your
Deferral Account that remains unvested after a Change of Control shall continue to vest in
accordance with the schedule described above. For example, if a Change of Control occurs on July 1,
2006, and you are still employed with the Company, then 1/9th of your Deferral Account
will vest on the Change of Control; 1/3rd of the 8/9ths portion of your
Deferral Account that remained unvested immediately after the Change of Control will vest on the
First Vesting Day (so that 11/27ths will then be vested); an additional 1/2 of the
16/27ths portion of your Deferral Account that remained unvested immediately after
the First Vesting Day will vest on the Second Vesting Day (so that 19/27ths will
then be vested); and the remaining unvested portion of your Deferral Account will vest on the Third
Vesting Day.
If your employment with the Company is terminated for any reason before the entire Deferred
Bonus has vested, the unvested percentage of your Deferral Account (as determined at the end of the
day of your termination) will be terminated and forfeited for no consideration. For example, if
your employment is terminated before the First Vesting Day, you will be entirely unvested on that
date, and your entire Deferral Account will be forfeited; and if your employment is terminated on
or after the First Vesting Day but on or before the Second Vesting Day, you will be
1/3rd vested on that date, and 2/3rds of your entire Deferral Account will be

forfeited. (These examples assume that no Change of Control occurs at any relevant time and your
employment is not terminated by reason of death.)
After your separation from service with the Company, you will receive a distribution of any
vested balance (less applicable tax withholdings) in accordance with the provisions of the Deferred
Compensation Plan and your Deferral Agreement.
You understand and acknowledge that your account balance under the Deferred Compensation Plan
will be reachable by the Company’s general creditors upon the insolvency of the Company. You also
understand and acknowledge that you will not be entitled to accelerate distributions from the
Deferred Compensation Plan except in the event of your Disability or Unforeseeable Emergency as
defined under the Deferred Compensation Plan.
The Deferred Bonus will be in addition to any rights that you have under any other agreement
with the Company. Any Deferred Bonus will not be deemed to be salary or other compensation for the
purpose of computing benefits under any employee benefit plan or other arrangement of the Company
for the benefit of its employees.
If a future change in law would, in the judgment of the Compensation Committee or Plan
Administrator, likely accelerate taxation to you of amounts that would be credited to your account
under the Deferred Compensation Plan in the future, you and the Company will attempt to amend the
Deferred Compensation Plan to satisfy the requirements of the change in law and, unless and until
such an amendment is agreed to, the Company will cease to credit Deferred Bonuses to your account
established under the Deferred Compensation Plan.
The Deferred Bonus does not give you any right to be retained by the Company, and does not
affect the right of the Company to dismiss any employee. The Company
may withhold from any payment of the Deferred Bonus as may be required pursuant to applicable
law.
Enclosed are:
(1) Flextronics International USA, Inc. 2005 Senior Management Deferred
Compensation Plan;
(2) Deferral Agreement Form for 2005 and Beneficiary Form; and
(3) Summary of the 2005 Deferred Compensation Plan.
By signing below, you represent that you have read and understand these documents and have had
adequate opportunity to ask any questions about the documents. You understand that although the
Company has attempted to structure a plan to accomplish the tax results discussed in the documents,
the Company cannot warrant that the tax effect on you will be as expected. You also understand that
the Company and its representatives are not attempting to give you tax advice. We strongly advise
you to seek any tax advice from your own tax adviser.
