Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers
(e) Approval of Relocation Offer to Francois Barbier
On August 30, 2010, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Flextronics International Ltd. (the “Company”) approved an offer to Francois Barbier to relocate to the Company’s Milpitas facility, effective August 30, 2010. Mr. Barbier will continue at the Milpitas facility in his current position as President, Global Operations, a position he has held with the Company since June 2008.
In connection with Mr. Barbier’s relocation to the United States, the Compensation Committee approved certain changes to the compensation and benefits payable to Mr. Barbier. Pursuant to the terms of Mr. Barbier’s offer letter, effective August 30, 2010 (the “Offer Letter”), Mr. Barbier’s new annual base salary was increased by $50,000 from $550,000 to $600,000, retroactive to July 1, 2010. The Company also agreed to reimburse Mr. Barbier for certain relocation expenses incurred by Mr. Barbier, including a housing allowance of $6,000 per month, a one-time furnishing allowance of up to $50,000, a miscellaneous expenditure allowance of up to $8,000 and one year of education expenses for one dependent. All reimbursed amounts will be grossed up for applicable taxes. No changes were made to Mr. Barbier’s eligibility to participate in the Company’s incentive bonus plan or long-term incentive programs.
Pursuant to the terms and conditions of a relocation expenses agreement, also effective August 30, 2010 (the “Relocation Expenses Addendum”), in the event that Mr. Barbier’s employment with the Company is terminated within two years after his relocation, Mr. Barbier agreed to repay to the Company a pro-rated percentage of the relocation expenses based on the number of months of service following his relocation.
Copies of the Offer Letter, the Relocation Expenses Addendum and a Confirmation Date Letter confirming the effective date of the relocation offer are attached hereto as Exhibits 10.01, 10.02 and 10.03 and incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing descriptions of the Offer Letter, Relocation Expenses Addendum and Confirmation Date Letter are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the agreements.
