Item 1.01    Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On August 30, 2013, Flextronics International Ltd. (the “Company”), entered into a $600 million term loan agreement (the “Term Loan Agreement”) with The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, Ltd., as Administrative Agent (the “Administrative Agent”), Lead Arranger and Bookrunner, and the other Lenders party thereto.  The Term Loan Agreement consists of a $600 million term loan facility.  On the same date, the Company borrowed the full amount under the term loan facility, which it used to repay the remaining outstanding loans under its 2007 term loan facility, which was scheduled to mature in October 2014, and under its Asia term loans, which were scheduled to mature in September 2013 and February 2014.  Within 180 days of the closing date, the Company is required to use the remainder of the borrowed funds to repay additional existing indebtedness.  The Term Loan Agreement matures on August 30, 2018.  The Term Loan Agreement permits the Company, at its option, to request an increase in the term loan facility and/or request a new tranche or tranches of term loans in an aggregate amount not to exceed $150 million.  Any increase or new incremental term loan facility would be on terms to be agreed among the Company, the Administrative Agent, and the lenders who agree to participate in the facility.

Borrowings under the Term Loan Agreement bear interest, at the Company’s option, either at (i) the greatest of (a) the prime rate in effect on such day as published in The Wall Street Journal, (b) the federal funds effective rate in effect on such day, plus 0.50% and (c) the LIBOR (the London Interbank Offered Rate) rate that would be calculated as of such day in respect of a proposed LIBOR loan with a one-month interest period, plus 1.0%; plus, in the case of each of clauses (a) through (c), an applicable margin ranging from 0.00% to 1.00%, based on the Company’s credit ratings (as determined by Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC and Moody’s Investors Service, Inc.) or (ii) LIBOR plus the applicable margin for LIBOR loans ranging between 1.00% and 2.00%, based on the Company’s credit ratings.

The Term Loan Agreement is unsecured, and contains customary restrictions on the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to (i) incur certain debt, (ii) make certain investments, (iii) make certain acquisitions of other entities, (iv) incur liens, (v) dispose of assets, (vi) make non-cash distributions to shareholders, and (vii) engage in transactions with affiliates.  These covenants are subject to a number of significant exceptions and limitations. The Term Loan Agreement also requires that the Company maintain a maximum ratio of total indebtedness to EBITDA (earnings before interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization), and a minimum interest coverage ratio, as defined, during the term of the Term Loan Agreement.  Borrowings under the Term Loan Agreement are guaranteed by certain of the Company’s subsidiaries.

The Term Loan Agreement also contains customary events of default.  If an event of default under the Term Loan Agreement occurs and is continuing, then the Administrative Agent shall, at the request of, or may, with the consent of, the required lenders, declare any outstanding obligations under the Term Loan Agreement to be immediately due and payable.  In addition, if an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to the Company is made under the United States bankruptcy code or comparable foreign law, then any outstanding obligations under the Term Loan Agreement will automatically become immediately due and payable.

Some of the lenders under the Term Loan Agreement and/or their affiliates have from time to time performed and may in the future perform various commercial banking, investment banking and other financial advisory services for the Company and/or its subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business, for which they received or will receive customary fees and commissions.
