Notice of Meeting and important information for shareholders

4 August 2025 – Rakon Limited (NZX: RAK) has today released its Notice of Meeting. This contains

important information for shareholders on Director elections and Board composition, and

shareholders are encouraged to read it carefully.

The 2025 Annual Meeting of Shareholders of Rakon Limited will be held at 10.30am on Friday 22

August 2025 in the Great Northern Room, Ellerslie Event Centre, Remuera, Auckland and online via

https://meetnow.global/nz.

Shareholders will be asked to consider and vote on the election and re-election of four Directors.

Dr Mark Bregman, Dr Lisbeth Jacobs and Mr Jon Raby have been appointed as Independent

Directors since the last Annual Meeting and are therefore standing for election by shareholders. All

were identified as having valuable skill sets and expertise that add considerable value to the Board

and the company, and their appointments were unanimously approved by all of Rakon’s

independent and non-independent Directors.

The Board, by majority resolution, recommends that shareholders vote in favour of the elections of

Dr Mark Bregman, Dr Lisbeth Jacobs and Mr Jon Raby.

Selection of Dr Mark Bregman as Independent Chair

As advised on 22 July 2025, following a careful, structured process, Dr Mark Bregman was selected

as Chair-elect by majority Board resolution. Following a thorough assessment, the Board sub-

committee, with the support of independent governance experts, formed the view that Dr Bregman

was an excellent candidate and demonstrated to a very high level the appropriate mix of experience,

skills and attributes required to lead the Rakon Board.

Brent Robinson, a non-independent director on the Rakon Board, had also expressed his interest in

becoming the Chair of Rakon, however, chose not to participate in the selection process.

Notwithstanding that he did not participate in the process, and his non-independent status, the sub-

committee carefully considered his candidacy. However, the Independent Directors unanimously

determined that they were not able to support his selection. The Board does, however, believe that

as a large and longstanding shareholder, it is appropriate for Brent to have a place on the Board and

supports Brent’s re-election as a non-Independent Director.

Shareholder Voting Intentions

Since being advised of the Independent Directors’ determination regarding the role of chair, Brent

Robinson has advised, despite approving each of the Independent Directors’ appointments, that he

is now no longer prepared to support the candidacies of Mark Bregman, Lisbeth Jacobs and Jon

Raby.

Brent Robinson is the registered holder of a 4.31% holding and an associate of other family members

including his brother Darren Robinson who is the registered holder of 4.31% and they are both

registered holders and beneficial owners of 11.05% of Rakon’s issued shares (representing a total of

19.67%). Non-Independent Director, Jung Meng Tseng, who represents the interests of Siward

Crystal Technology Co., Ltd (Siward) has also advised, despite approving each of the Independent

Directors’ appointments, that he is now not prepared to support the candidacies of Mark Bregman,

Lisbeth Jacobs and Jon Raby. Siward holds 12.19% of the shares in the company.

The shareholders associated with Brent Robinson and Jung Meng Tseng collectively represent a

substantial block (but still a minority) of the shares in the company.

There is a risk that, if the votes of the shareholders associated with Brent Robinson and Jung Meng

Tseng are sufficient to defeat the resolutions for election of Mark Bregman, Lisbeth Jacobs and Jon

Raby, the company will be left with no Directors who have been determined to be independent. This

would result in an immediate breach of the NZX Listing Rules. This would have serious consequences

for the company, and the company would have to take urgent action to address that issue.

Current chair, Lorraine Witten, says: “I believe the careful recruitment of independent, conscientious

and capable Directors to the Board is critically important and that peremptory removal of high-

performing Directors undermines the sound stewardship that shareholders and the company

deserve.

“I also believe that selection of a highly qualified independent Board Chair (in line with best practice

and in compliance with the NZX Corporate Governance Code) is in the best interests of all

shareholders – this is especially important here because the majority of the shares in the company

are held by shareholders whose holdings are (individually) less than 4% in size.”

There is no certainty that the relevant shareholder(s) will exercise their votes, or take the steps,

referred to above.

Shareholders should refer to the Notice of Meeting and Explanatory Notes for further information.

Rakon Limited
Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders 2025

This document contains important

information regarding Director Elections

and the composition of your Board. We

encourage you to review it carefully to

enable you to make informed decisions

at the upcoming Annual Meeting. Your

participation and vote is vital to shaping

the future of the company.


Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders 2025

Letter from the Chair

4 August 2025

I am pleased to invite you to the 2025 Annual

Meeting of Rakon Limited to be held on Friday

22 August at 10.30am in the Great Northern

Room, Ellerslie Event Centre, Remuera Auckland.

There are a number of directors standing for

election or re-election at the Meeting. The

outcome of these elections will play a pivotal

role in shaping the composition of your Board

and ensuring that your interests as a

shareholder are well-represented. Your vote is

important, and I encourage you to carefully

consider the candidates and cast your vote

either by proxy or at the meeting.

Board refresh

As announced in April this year I will step down

from the Board at the end of the Annual

Meeting. My role as Chair will transition earlier

to Dr Mark Bregman, chair-elect, from 8 August

2025 and Mark will chair the Annual Meeting.

I am proud to have served as a director and

Chair of Rakon and to have supported Rakon’s

developments and growth in its technology,

markets, operations and governance over the

last eight years, and am excited about Rakon’s

future potential.

During the course of FY 2025, three of Rakon’s

independent Directors resigned. On each

occasion, Rakon followed a careful and rigorous

process to identify and assess the suitability of

candidates for the vacant role – a process that

has been developed and supported by the

whole Board of Directors as a key tenet of our

governance framework.

The Board’s nominations sub-committee was

supported by independent director search

consultants, to review the Board composition

and skills matrix and the governance, regulatory,

industry and technical skills, qualifications,

experience and fit required to support and

guide Rakon in delivery of its strategic

objectives.

We were very pleased to have interest from

and be able to appoint three highly qualified

independent Directors - Dr Mark Bregman,

Dr Lisbeth Jacobs and Mr Jon Raby – who

were all identified as having valuable skill

sets and expertise that add considerable value to our

Board and our company.

As part of the recruitment process, they were interviewed by

all Directors of the Board, both independent and non-

independent, and received unanimous approval for their

appointments.

Dr Mark Bregman is Rakon’s chair-elect. Mark is a

professional director with over 35 years’ experience leading

and innovating global businesses. He has a deep

understanding of the global technology landscape, and

extensive experience guiding leading technology companies

to deliver on their growth aspirations.

Dr Lisbeth Jacobs is an experienced leader in driving growth

of technology companies across global operations and

international markets. She has specialised experience at

Board and management level across the technology,

engineering and manufacturing sectors, offering an

important and complementary contribution to Rakon’s

governance.

Jon Raby is a highly experienced leader in major financial

services companies in New Zealand and Australia. He is a Fellow

Chartered Accountant (FCA) of Chartered Accountants Australia

and New Zealand (CA ANZ), and contributes strongly to Rakon’s

governance, including as Chair of the Audit and Risk Committee

since his appointment in March 2025.

As they were appointed since the last annual meeting, they

are therefore standing for election at this year’s Annual

Meeting. You can read profiles on each director in the

Explanatory Notes and on the Rakon website.

Your Board, by majority resolution, recommends

shareholders vote in favour of the election of Mark

Bregman, Lisbeth Jacobs and Jon Raby.

Selection of Dr Mark Bregman as Chair

A sub-committee of the Board also undertook a careful,

structured process to consider selection of the new chair, with

the support of independent governance experts, Kerridge and

Partners. Following a thorough assessment, they formed the

view that Dr Bregman was an excellent candidate and

demonstrated to a very high level the appropriate mix of

experience, skills and attributes required to lead the Rakon

Board. Dr Bregman’s selection as chair-elect was supported by

majority Board resolution and announced on 22 July 2025.

Brent Robinson, a non-independent director on our Board, had

also expressed his interest in becoming the Chair of Rakon,

however, chose not to participate in the selection process.

Notwithstanding that he did not participate in the process, and

his non-independent status, the sub-committee carefully


Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders 2025

considered his candidacy including Brent’s

considerable experience in the quartz timing

industry, long tenure with the company, and the

fact that he has indicated that he has a

meaningful block of large shareholder support.


However, the independent Directors

unanimously determined that Brent did not

meet certain important criteria for the Chair

role, and they ultimately determined they were

not able to support his selection.


The Board, however, does unanimously support

Brent’s re-election as a director. As a large and

longstanding shareholder, the Board believes it

appropriate for Brent to have a place on the

Board.


Brent Robinson is standing for re-election

at the Annual Meeting and the Board

supports his re-election as a non-

independent Director.


Brent has now advised that he maintains his

interest in becoming the Chair, and therefore no

longer supports the candidacies of the

independent Directors, and that the resolutions

for their election will not receive his support.


Important information on the proposals

for election of the independent Directors,

and voting intentions

Shareholders’ attention is drawn to the

discussion, in the Explanatory Notes to the

Notice of Meeting, on the proposals for

election of Mark Bregman, Lisbeth Jacobs

and Jon Raby. Shareholders will note that

the statements of Board support are

expressed as “majority” resolutions.

Since being advised of the independent

Directors’ determination regarding the role of

chair, Brent Robinson has advised that he is no

longer prepared to support the candidacies of

Mark Bregman, Lisbeth Jacobs and Jon Raby.


Brent Robinson is the registered holder of a

4.31% holding and is an associate of other

family members including his brother Darren

Robinson who is the registered holder of 4.31%

and they are both registered holders and

beneficial owners of 11.05% of Rakon’s issued shares

(representing a total of 19.67%).


Non-independent director, Jung Meng Tseng, who represents

the interests of Siward Crystal Technology Co., Ltd has also

advised that he is not prepared to support the candidacies of

Mark Bregman, Lisbeth Jacobs and Jon Raby. Siward Crystal

Technology Co., Ltd holds 12.19% of the shares in the Company.

The shareholders associated with Brent Robinson and Jung

Meng Tseng collectively represent a substantial block (but still a

minority) of the shares in the company.

Governance risk

I have signaled that I will retire as a director at the conclusion of

the Annual Meeting. At this time, the only Directors who have

been determined to be independent are those standing for

election.

There is therefore a risk that, if the votes of the shareholders

associated with Brent Robinson and Jung Meng Tseng are

sufficient to defeat the resolutions for election of Mark Bregman,

Lisbeth Jacobs and Jon Raby, the company will be left with no

Directors who have been determined to be independent. This

would result in an immediate breach of the NZX Listing Rules.

This would have serious consequences for the company, and the

company would have to take urgent action to address that issue.

Your role as shareholders


Ultimately, it will be up to you, the shareholders, by voting on

the resolutions at this Annual Meeting, to determine the

composition of the Board.

Shareholders will however appreciate that the resolutions to be

proposed at this Annual Meeting raise issues of fundamental

importance for the governance of the Company.

Shareholders are strongly encouraged to read the

Explanatory Notes to the Notice of Meeting, consider the

issues, participate in the meeting, and exercise your votes

(in person, online, or by proxy), as outlined further in the

Notice of Meeting.

Concluding comments

During my term as a director and Chair of Rakon I have sought

to uphold best practice governance as guided by the NZX

Listing Rules, the NZX Corporate Governance Code, and the

governance expectations of our institutional investors,

stakeholders such as the NZSA and all our shareholders.

I believe the careful recruitment of independent, conscientious

and capable Directors to your Board is critically important and

that peremptory removal of high-performing Directors

undermines the sound stewardship you and the company

deserve.


Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders 2025

I also believe that selection of a highly qualified

independent Board Chair (in line with best

practice and in compliance with the NZX

Corporate Governance Code) is in the best

interests of all shareholders – this is especially

important here because the majority of the

shares in the company are held by shareholders

whose holdings are (individually) less than 4% in

size.

I look forward to the opportunity to meet with

you at the Annual Meeting on 22 August 2025.

Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders 2025

Explanatory Notes

Resolutions 1, 2 and 3: Election of

Mark Bregman, Lisbeth Jacobs and

Jon Raby

NZX Listing Rule 2.7.1 provides that a

director who has been appointed by the

Board must not hold office (without

election) past the next annual meeting

following the director’s appointment.

Mark Bregman, Lisbeth Jacobs and Jon Raby

were appointed as Directors by the Board in

October 2024, February 2025 and March

2025 respectively. Being eligible, they all

now offer themselves for election to the

Board of Rakon.

The Board has determined that in its view, if

elected, each of Mark Bregman, Lisbeth

Jacobs and Jon Raby will be an independent

director for the purposes of the NZX Listing

Rules.

Brief biographies of Mark Bregman, Lisbeth

Jacobs and Jon Raby are provided below.

The Board of Rakon (by majority resolution)

confirms its (majority) support for the

election of Mark Bregman, Lisbeth Jacobs

Gallagher Animal Management, but has recently resigned to

across the technology, engineering and manufacturing

sectors, offering an important and complementary

contribution to Rakon’s governance.

Lisbeth has a proven track record of guiding innovative

companies to grow and capture market share on a global-

scale, which will be important as Rakon seeks to capitalise on

its technological advantage and execute its growth and

global transformation plans.

Lisbeth has served the Board’s People Committee since her

Mr Raby was unanimously appointed by the

full Board after completing the rigorous

selection process.

The Board of Rakon confirms its (majority)

support for the election of Jon Raby and

recommends that you vote in favour of his

Selection of Dr Mark Bregman as Chair

A sub-committee of the Board also

undertook a careful and structured process

to consider selection of the new chair, with

experts, Kerridge and Partners. Following a

thorough assessment, they formed the view

that Dr Bregman was an excellent candidate

were not able to support his selection.

Brent is standing for re-election at the

annual meeting and, as discussed further in

relation to Resolution 4, the Board

unanimously supports his re-election as a

non-independent director.

Brent has now advised that he maintains his

interest in becoming the Chair, does not

therefore support the candidacies of the

independent Directors, and that the

resolutions for their election will not receive

his support.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION - ELECTION OF

INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS, AND VOTING INTENTIONS

Since being advised of the independent Directors’

determination regarding the role of chair, Brent Robinson

has advised that he is not prepared to support the

candidacies of Mark Bregman, Lisbeth Jacobs and Jon Raby.

This is not due to any concerns as to the performance of

Mark Bregman, Lisbeth Jacobs or Jon Raby of their respective

roles.

Brent Robinson has indicated that he believes for a board to

work at an optimum level, it needs to have a mix of people

prepared to work together to advance the overall strategic

direction of the company and he has lost confidence in the

current independent directors.

Noting their support of Brent Robinson's reappointment as

a director, independent directors confirm their commitment

to working together with all directors.

Brent Robinson is the registered holder of a 4.31% holding

and is an associate of other family members including his

brother Darren Robinson who is the registered holder of

4.31%, and they are both registered holders and beneficial

owners of 11.05% of Rakon’s issued shares (representing a

total of 19.67%).

Non-independent director, Jung Meng Tseng, has also

advised that he is not prepared to support the candidacies

of Mark Bregman, Lisbeth Jacobs and Jon Raby.

Jung Meng Tseng represents the interests of Siward Crystal

Technology Co., Ltd, which holds 12.19% of the shares in the

company.

The shareholders associated with Brent Robinson and Jung

Meng Tseng collectively represent a substantial block (but

still a minority) of the shares in the company.

The current Chair (Lorraine Witten) has signaled that she will

retire as a director at the conclusion of the Annual Meeting.

There is therefore a risk that, if the votes of the shareholders

associated with Brent Robinson and Jung Meng Tseng are

sufficient to defeat the resolutions for election of Mark

Bregman, Lisbeth Jacobs and Jon Raby, the company will be

left with no Directors who have been determined to be

independent. This would result in an immediate breach of

the NZX Listing Rules. This would have serious consequences

for the company and the company would have to take urgent

action to address the issue.


Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders 2025

Resolution 4: Re-election of director

Brent Robinson

NZX Listing Rule 2.7.1 provides that a

director must not hold office (without re-

election) past the third annual meeting

following the director’s last election or three

years, whichever is longer.

Brent Robinson was last elected at the

Annual Meeting held on 11 August 2022.

Brent will retire at this year’s Annual Meeting

and being eligible for re-election he offers

himself for election as a director of Rakon.

The Board has determined that Brent

Robinson is not an independent director for

the purposes of the NZX Listing Rules.

A brief biography of Brent is provided

below.

The Board of Rakon confirms its unanimous

support for the re-election of Brent

Robinson and recommends that you vote in

favour of his re-election.

Brent Robinson is, with his associated

interests, a substantial shareholder in Rakon.

Prior to 1 April 2022 Brent was Rakon’s

Managing Director and Chief Executive

Officer, a role he held from 1986 (including

from 2006 when Rakon was listed on the

NZX). From 1 April 2022 to December 2024

Brent was Rakon’s Chief Technology Officer.

Under his leadership Rakon established

global operations and markets for Rakon’s

frequency control products for which Rakon

is recognised as an industry leader. Brent is

an Honorary Fellow of the Institution of

Engineers New Zealand and was awarded

the New Zealand Hi-Tech Trust - Flying Kiwi

Award in 2011.

industry knowledge.

Further information on Board candidates

Robinson who is standing for re-election

and each of Dr Mark Bregman, Dr Lisbeth

Jacobs and Mr Jon Raby (who were

appointed by the Board since the last annual meeting

and are standing for election) may be found on the Rakon

website at www.rakon.com/investors. Information is also

available in Rakon’s 2025 Annual Report, which may be

found on the company’s website and is available in hardcopy

by request to the company or the company’s share registrar

Computershare.

Resolution 5: Fixing remuneration of auditor

PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) is reappointed auditor for

Rakon automatically at the Annual Meeting pursuant to

section 207T of the Companies Act 1993, unless the auditor

gives notice that it does not wish to be reappointed. PwC has

not given such notice.

The resolution is proposed to authorise the Directors of

Rakon to fix the auditor’s fee and expenses for the following

year pursuant to section 207S of the Companies Act 1993.

The Board recommends that you vote in favour of Resolution

5.
