FULL TAKEOVER OFFER

FOR RAKON LIMITED

UNDER THE TAKEOVERS CODE BY BOURNS, INC.

9 February 2026
LETTER FROM BOURNS TO RAKON SHAREHOLDERS

Dear Rakon Shareholder

On 11 January 2026, Bourns, Inc. (Bourns) issued a Takeover Notice to Rakon Limited (Rakon) stating its

intention to make a full offer under the Takeovers Code for all of the ordinary shares and share rights in

Rakon. We are now pleased to provide you with our formal cash offer of $1.55 per Rakon share / share

right (Offer).

The Offer is Compelling

The Offer provides shareholders with a highly attractive premium and certainty of value in a single

transaction, free of brokerage costs. We believe that the Offer is compelling for the following key reasons:

1. The Offer price of $1.55 in cash per share represents an attractive premium to Rakon’s recent share

price trading, including a premium of:

n 72.2% to the last closing price on the NZX of $0.90 on 9 January 2026, the last trading day on the

NZX prior to the date on which we lodged the Takeover Notice;

n 84.1% to the one-month VWAP

1

of $0.842 per share;

n 87.0% to the six-month VWAP of $0.829 per share; and

n 116.8% to the 12-month VWAP of $0.715 per share.

2. Rakon’s three largest shareholders, consisting of the Robinson Family interests, Siward Crystal

Technology Co. Limited, and Wairahi Investments Limited / Wairahi Holdings Limited, have entered

into lock-up agreements to accept the Offer in respect of all the Rakon shares they hold or control.

Timemaker entities have also entered into a lock-up agreement. These lock-up agreements represent

41.2% of the total Rakon shares on issue. 77.4% of this group comprises holdings by the Robinson

Family and Siward Crystal Technology Co. Limited, who have appointed board representatives and

therefore have full visibility into current company performance and trends and a full understanding

of the company’s future growth prospects.

3. The Offer represents EBITDA multiples

2

of 14.9x to 23.8x Rakon’s EBITDA guidance for the year ending

31 March 2026 of $15 million to $24 million. The Offer implies a premium multiple even at the high

end of the forecast range and a very full multiple at the low end, positioning this Offer in the upper

quartile of global peer-group transactions.

1

VWAP means the volume weighted average price at which Rakon shares have traded on the NZX Main Board for the relevant period ending on

the last trading day on the NZX prior to the date on which Bourns lodged the Takeover Notice. VWAP is calculated by dividing the total dollar

value of shares traded by the total volume (or number) of shares traded during the period referred to, based on trading days. VWAPs referred to

in this letter have been calculated from NZX trading data sourced from FactSet (up to and including market close on 9 January 2026, the last

trading day on the NZX prior to the date on which the Takeover Notice was issued by Bourns).

2

Multiples derived from Rakon’s Enterprise Value. Enterprise Value calculated using Rakon’s fully diluted shares outstanding (including ordinary

shares and share rights) of 232,795,991 and reported financials as at 30 September 2025, comprising cash and cash equivalents of $12.4 million,

loans and borrowings of $11.6 million, lease liabilities of $8.9 million, retirement and other provisions of $2.8 million (adjusted for tax) and inter-

est in associates of $14.1 million.

- 1 -

4. In late 2023, Rakon announced to the NZX it had received a non-binding, highly conditional
indication of interest at $1.70 per share. The bidder did not proceed to make a formal offer. Rakon

announced on 19 June 2024 that such process was at an end as the parties were unable to reach a

suitable resolution to the potential complexities encountered during due diligence. Bourns’ Offer is

not subject to a due diligence condition and offers all-cash consideration of $1.55 per share, free of

brokerage costs.

5. Bourns intends to operate Rakon as a standalone division, retaining Rakon’s global activities,

employees and R&D capabilities at all locations. Bourns intends to fully support Rakon’s strategic

plans by leveraging both Bourns’ global scale in operations, sales, distribution, and customer base, as

well as access to capital from a strong balance sheet.

6. Global stock markets are trading near all-time highs, including semiconductor stocks, and in Bourns’

view, any sustained market sell-off is likely to severely impact Rakon’s share price, as was evidenced

in the market sell-off in April 2025, when Rakon’s share price fell to $0.41 per share.

Counterfactual to the Offer
Rakon’s share price has experienced extended periods of low trading levels, with a 52-week range of

$0.41 to $0.92 (up until the Takeover Notice was released on 12 January 2026). It has under-performed

the NZX50 index over a long period of time and over the last 15 years has largely traded below $1.00

per share (apart from a post COVID trading lift in 2021 and following receipt of the previous indicative

proposal, which was subsequently withdrawn).

If the Offer does not succeed, Bourns anticipates that Rakon shareholders will continue to face

longstanding challenges, including:

n Earnings volatility and industry headwinds, which have contributed to Rakon’s track record of

missing forecasts;

n Operating in a cyclical sector that requires ongoing innovation and expansion into new

markets, a process made more difficult by Rakon’s historically limited access to capital and the

likelihood of continued constraints in this area;

n Restricted capital availability for funding business initiatives and pursuing future growth

opportunities;

n Low share liquidity and complex regulatory requirements, both of which exacerbate share price

volatility; and

n A history of limited dividends. Since listing on the NZX in 2006, Rakon has only paid one

dividend of 1.5c in July 2023, with no additional dividends indicated in the near term.

These factors have constrained Rakon’s ability to deliver sustained value as a listed company. Our Offer of

$1.55 per share provides shareholders with certainty and immediate value, while also positioning Rakon

for long-term success as part of Bourns’ global and diversified operations.

Developments Further Strengthening the Merits of the Offer

Since the Takeover Notice was released on 12 January 2026, there has been strong market reaction and

positive media coverage which have further validated the merits of the Offer.

Next Steps

This Offer Document includes full details of the Offer and acceptance instructions, which we

encourage you to read in full. Shareholders are able to accept the Offer online via Computershare at

www.takeoveroffer.co.nz/rakon or by returning the enclosed Acceptance Form to Computershare.

The Offer is subject to usual conditions, including reaching acceptances of 90%. If that threshold is not

reached and the condition is not waived, the Offer will lapse and Rakon shareholders will not be paid

$1.55 for each of their shares or share rights in Rakon.

We therefore encourage you to accept the Offer as soon as possible.

- 3 -

We also require regulatory approvals from authorities in New Zealand, France and the United Kingdom
and each of those applications have been lodged and is expected to be forthcoming.

We believe the Offer represents a compelling opportunity for you to unlock significant value and deliver

a positive outcome for all Rakon shareholders. It enables you to sell your shares and / or share rights at a

substantial premium to recent share prices and we encourage you to accept the Offer.

Bourns is being advised by Cameron Partners and Rothschild & Co (joint investment banking advisor),

Simpson Grierson (legal advisor) and Shanahan Partners (PR and communications advisor).

Yours faithfully,

(a) the Shareholder(s) who has/have signed the Acceptance Form do(es) so on behalf of and as

duly authorised agent(s) for the joint Holder(s) who has/have not signed, that such authority has

not been revoked, and that the acceptance and/or certificate is binding on the joint Holder(s)

to that dividend or distribution, and (ii) for a non-resident Shareholder, being the amount of

the dividend or distribution ignoring any supplementary dividend paid and ignoring any

option or right to subscribe, in any such case in favour of any Shareholder and if the condition in

paragraph 4.4(b) is waived and the Offer becomes unconditional then at Bourns’ option either:

other rights and interests to Bourns without any additional consideration; or

(b) if the Additional Shares are Shares, the Offer will extend to those Additional Securities and

the consideration payable for each Share as set out in paragraph 2.1 will be proportionately

between Bourns or any associates of Bourns, and Rakon, or of any Related Company of Rakon, in

connection with, in anticipation of, or in response to, this Offer.

Bourns, and any of the directors or senior managers of Rakon or of any Related Company of Rakon (including

Related Company of Rakon, will give (directly or indirectly) financial assistance for the purpose of, or in

connection with, the Offer.

12. INTENTIONS ABOUT MATERIAL CHANGES TO RAKON

12.1 If Bourns becomes entitled to invoke the compulsory acquisition provisions of the Takeovers Code,

it intends to compulsorily acquire all the outstanding equity securities in Rakon and apply for Rakon

to be delisted from NZX.

12.2 If Bourns does not receive sufficient acceptances under the Offer to enable the compulsory

acquisition provisions of the Takeovers Code to be invoked, and waives the condition in paragraph

4.1 of the Terms and Conditions of this Offer Document (which Bourns may or may not do, and

Bourns expresses no intention in this regard) and declares the Offer unconditional, Bourns may

seek appropriate representation on the Rakon Board and participate in decisions relating to Rakon

through the Rakon Board.

12.3 If Bourns acquires any Share Rights under this Offer, Bourns intends that those Share Rights will not

be exercised and will lapse or otherwise be treated in accordance with their terms following

settlement. For the avoidance of doubt, the consideration payable for Share Rights accepted under

this Offer will be paid in cash in accordance with paragraph 2.3.

12.4 Only after completion of the Offer and a detailed review of the Rakon Group, having regard to all

material matters, including as to the level of acceptances under the Offer, will Bourns finally determine

its intentions for the Rakon Group and take such steps as Bourns may consider appropriate. However,

Bourns’ current intentions about the business activities of the Rakon Group, and material changes to

the material assets or capital structure of the Rakon Group are:

(a) Rakon would become a new, complementary standalone division within Bourns’ existing

organisation with continued leadership by the existing Rakon management team;

(b) Bourns has no current intentions to make any material changes in the immediate term to

existing operating locations and activities within the Rakon Group;

TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE OFFER cont.

- 29 -

(c) Bourns intends to provide access to its global sales, distribution and operational footprint to
support accelerated growth of the Rakon business by expanding access to Bourns’ existing

customer base;

(d) Bourns intends to provide access to necessary capital investments based on Bourns’ strong

balance sheet to ensure successful implementation of Rakon’s product development needs to

execute its long-range growth plan;

(e) Bourns intends to leverage technology interchange and sharing of best practices to enhance

Rakon’s operational execution capabilities.

12.5 The above statements of intention represent Bourns’ current intentions based on information

that is known to Bourns as at the date of preparation of this Offer Document. Further information

may become available to Bourns on completion of the Offer and if Bourns’ Offer is successful,

Bourns may take such other actions, or pursue such other strategies in relation to Rakon’s business

as Bourns considers appropriate.

12.6 The statements made under paragraph 12.4 are consistent with any information that has been

given by Bourns to any regulatory body (in New Zealand or in an overseas jurisdiction).

13. PRE-EMPTION CLAUSES IN RAKON’S CONSTITUTION

Rakon’s constitution does not contain any pre-emptive rights or similar provisions requiring a Holder to

offer its Shares to any person prior to transferring those Shares.

14. ESCALATION CLAUSES

As at the date of this Offer Document, no agreement or arrangement to which Bourns is a party to

(whether legally enforceable or not) has been made, or is proposed to be made, under which:

(a) any existing holder of equity securities in Rakon will or may receive in relation to, or as a

consequence of, the Offer any additional consideration or other benefit over and above

the consideration set out in the Offer; or

(b) any prior holder of equity securities in Rakon will or may receive any consideration or other

benefit as a consequence of the Offer.

15. CLASSES OF FINANCIAL PRODUCTS

15.1 The consideration and the terms of the Offer for the Share Rights, which are non-voting securities,

are considered to be fair and reasonable in compliance with Rule 8(4) of the Takeovers Code. The basis

for that determination is that:

(a) the consideration for each Share is NZ$1.55; and

(b) there is no amount payable by the holders of a Share Right to subscribe for a Share in Rakon

under the terms of the Share Right.

15.2 Bourns has obtained a report by Simmons Corporate Finance concerning the fairness and

reasonableness of the Offer in relation to the different classes of equity securities (Report). The

service offered solely by Computershare and does not form part of the Offer. We take no responsibility for, nor endorse or have any liability in respect of,

the use of this service by you. Any currency conversion is undertaken at your own risk.

(b) Payment in foreign currencies: If you hold your shares on the NZX, live outside of New Zealand and would like your New Zealand dollar consideration to be

converted and paid electronically in a foreign currency, please contact Computershare directly to request payment in a foreign currency. This service would

be provided by PayPal Pte. Ltd (PayPal) utilising their subsidiary Hyperwallet Systems Inc and Computershare’s product is referred to as InvestorPay. Once

you have made this request to Computershare, you will be sent Computershare’s terms and conditions for using the service, and a list of frequently asked

questions (which includes details of the fees and the spread charge you will be charged for the service by Computershare and PayPal). Computershare will

then arrange for PayPal to contact you in relation to the currency conversion service (once payment has been made).

If that service is not acceptable to you, you will need to advise Computershare of a New Zealand dollar account with a New Zealand registered bank so

payment can be made to you by electronic transfer in New Zealand dollars. If the service is not acceptable to you and you are not able to provide a New

Zealand dollar account with a New Zealand registered bank, we may choose to pay you by electronic funds transfer to any existing New Zealand dollar

account that you have advised to Computershare (such as for dividend payments) which is known to us. If we choose to make payment to you in this

manner, we are not obliged to notify you that we have done so and we will have no liability to you for our choice to do so.

The costs associated with using any such service (in the form of fees or any spread charge), which will be deducted by Paypal from the consideration that

would otherwise be payable to you, and the relevant exchange rate that will apply will be a matter between you and Computershare and PayPal (should

you elect to use this service). We do not guarantee that PayPal will be able to provide any such service referred to in this paragraph 10(b).

(c) Timing for payments: For the purposes of clause 2.3 of the Offer, if you elect to use the currency conversion services outlined under paragraph 10(b) above,

the timing for determining when we make payment to you will be when Computershare has paid your consideration in New Zealand dollars to PayPal. Any

subsequent delay by PayPal in making payment to you, or the non-payment of the relevant consideration to you by PayPal, is entirely at your sole risk.


IF YOU ARE IN ANY DOUBT ABOUT THE PROCEDURES FOR ACCEPTANCES, PLEASE TELEPHONE COMPUTERSHARE INVESTOR ENQUIRIES ON 0800 991 101 (TOLL FREE

10. PAYPAL SERVICE (for Individuals outside of New Zealand only):

(a) Computershare offers a service to enable the New Zealand dollar consideration to be converted and paid electronically in certain other currencies. If your

registered address is not in New Zealand and you wish to use this service, please contact Computershare (as detailed below). Please note that this is a

service offered solely by Computershare and does not form part of the Offer. We take no responsibility for, nor endorse or have any liability in respect of,

the use of this service by you. Any currency conversion is undertaken at your own risk.

(b) Payment in foreign currencies: If you hold your shares on the NZX, live outside of New Zealand and would like your New Zealand dollar consideration to be

converted and paid electronically in a foreign currency, please contact Computershare directly to request payment in a foreign currency. This service would

be provided by PayPal Pte. Ltd (PayPal) utilising their subsidiary Hyperwallet Systems Inc and Computershare’s product is referred to as InvestorPay. Once

you have made this request to Computershare, you will be sent Computershare’s terms and conditions for using the service, and a list of frequently asked

questions (which includes details of the fees and the spread charge you will be charged for the service by Computershare and PayPal). Computershare will

then arrange for PayPal to contact you in relation to the currency conversion service (once payment has been made).

If that service is not acceptable to you, you will need to advise Computershare of a New Zealand dollar account with a New Zealand registered bank so

payment can be made to you by electronic transfer in New Zealand dollars. If the service is not acceptable to you and you are not able to provide a New

Zealand dollar account with a New Zealand registered bank, we may choose to pay you by electronic funds transfer to any existing New Zealand dollar

account that you have advised to Computershare (such as for dividend payments) which is known to us. If we choose to make payment to you in this

manner, we are not obliged to notify you that we have done so and we will have no liability to you for our choice to do so.

The costs associated with using any such service (in the form of fees or any spread charge), which will be deducted by Paypal from the consideration

that would otherwise be payable to you, and the relevant exchange rate that will apply will be a matter between you and Computershare and PayPal

(should you elect to use this service). We do not guarantee that PayPal will be able to provide any such service referred to in this paragraph 10(b).

(c) Timing for payments: For the purposes of clause 2.3 of the Offer, if you elect to use the currency conversion services outlined under paragraph 10(b) above,

the timing for determining when we make payment to you will be when Computershare has paid your consideration in New Zealand dollars to PayPal. Any

subsequent delay by PayPal in making payment to you, or the non-payment of the relevant consideration to you by PayPal, is entirely at your sole risk.


IF YOU ARE IN ANY DOUBT ABOUT THE PROCEDURES FOR ACCEPTANCES, PLEASE TELEPHONE COMPUTERSHARE INVESTOR ENQUIRIES ON 0800 991 101 (TOLL FREE
