COMPULSORY ACQUISITION NOTICE UNDER PART 7 OF THE TAKEOVERS CODE IN RESPECT OF
SHARES AND SHARE RIGHTS IN RAKON LIMITED
Background
On 9 February 2026, Bourns, Inc. (Bourns) made a takeover offer for all of the ordinary shares
(Shares), and all of the unlisted share rights to acquire Shares which are subject to the terms of
the Rakon Limited’s Long Term Incentive Plan (Share Rights) in Rakon Limited (Rakon) (Offer).
On 1 May 2026, the Offer was declared unconditional in all respects. On 8 May 2026, Bourns
made payment to Shareholders who had accepted the Offer and, in accordance with the terms
of the Offer, became the holder of 90% or more of the voting rights in Rakon. As a result, Bourns
announced on that date that it had become the “dominant owner” of Rakon for the purposes of
the compulsory acquisition provisions of the Takeovers Code. The offer period for the Offer
ended at 11:59 pm on 15 May 2026.
Bourns to acquire outstanding Shares
Bourns is now exercising its compulsory acquisition rights under Part 7 of the Takeovers Code.
The purpose of this notice is to advise you that Bourns requires you (as an outstanding holder
of Shares or Share Rights) to transfer all of your Shares and/or Share Rights to Bourns.
The consideration which will be paid to you for the outstanding Shares and Share Rights will be
the same as that under the Offer, being $1.55 per Share or Share Right.

the completed Transfer Form by email, post or delivery to the following addresses, so as to be
received by Bourns by 11:59pm on 9 June 2026 (being 15 working days after the date on which

Payment of consideration
If you return the completed Transfer Form to Bourns by 11:59pm on 9 June 2026, Bourns will
pay you the consideration of $1.55 per Share or Share Right within 5 working days after Bourns
receives the completed Transfer Form by way of electronic funds transfer to a New Zealand
dollar account with a New Zealand registered bank specified by you in your Transfer Form.
If you wish to be paid the consideration in an alternative manner, please contact
Computershare. You can find Computershare’s details at the bottom of your Transfer Form.
If the Transfer Form is not returned
If you do not return the completed Transfer Form to Bourns by 11:59pm on 9 June 2026, then
Bourns will, by 16 June 2026 (being 5 working days after the expiry of the 15 working day period
referred to above):
(a) deliver to Rakon the consideration of $1.55 per Share or Share Right for all Shares or
Share Rights which Bourns does not already hold in respect of which a Transfer Form
has not been returned to Bourns; and
(b) send to Rakon an instrument of transfer for those Shares or Share Rights, executed on
behalf of the holders of those Shares by Bourns or its agent (as Bourns is required to
do under the Takeovers Code).
Any consideration received by Rakon under paragraph (a) must be held by Rakon in trust for the
relevant outstanding Rakon shareholders or Share Rights holders until it is claimed, in an
interest-bearing trust account with a registered bank. Those Rakon Share or Share Right holders
for whom the consideration relating to their Shares or Share Rights in Rakon is paid to Rakon
may claim that consideration directly from Rakon.
Rakon has engaged Computershare Investor Services Limited (its share registrar) to operate the
trust account and process claims on its behalf. If you do not return a signed Transfer Form by
11:59pm on 9 June 2026 and Bourns compulsorily acquires your equity securities, you can
contact Computershare Investor Services Limited to claim the consideration for your equity
securities (plus any accrued interest, less any applicable taxes) by phone on: 0800 991 101 (+64
9 488 8700) or by email at: tkoacceptances@computershare.co.nz.
Currency conversion
The consideration payable under the compulsory acquisition process is in New Zealand dollars.
Where payment is made in a currency other than New Zealand dollars, this will involve a
conversion of New Zealand dollars into a different currency at the time of payment. Any
conversion is solely at your own risk. You will be responsible for any applicable costs, exchange
rate spread and fees associated with that conversion, and you agree that we can deduct these
costs from the amount payable. We will not be responsible for, or have any liability in connection
with, any currency conversion or any fees or other costs that you are required to pay, or which
are deducted from the amount payable to you in connection with facilitating the payment to
you in a currency other than New Zealand dollars (including the applicable exchange rate).

8. PAYPAL SERVICE (for Shareholders 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 compulsory acquisition process. 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 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 8(b).
(c) Timing for payments: If you elect to use the currency conversion services outlined under paragraph 8(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.
9. VALID RETURN OF THE TRANSFER FORM: Because of the need for the consideration to be paid electronically,
you will not have validly returned the Transfer Form until:
(a) you have provided Computershare with details of your New Zealand dollar account with a New Zealand
registered bank; or
(b) for Shareholders outside of New Zealand only, if you wish for your New Zealand dollar consideration to be
converted and paid electronically in a foreign currency in accordance with paragraph 8 above (and such a
service is provided):
(i) you have contacted Computershare and subsequently agreed to use InvestorPay for payment to be made
to you; and
(ii) Paypal has provided us with its valid New Zealand dollar bank account for the purpose of making payment;
or
(c) if paragraphs 9(a) or 9(b) above do not apply, we have chosen 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 by us.
ALTERNATIVE METHOD OF SETTLEMENT: If you wish to be paid the consideration in an alternative manner to
the options set out above, please contact Computershare. You can find Computershare’s details at the bottom of
this form.
10. CURRENCY CONVERSION: The consideration payable to you under compulsory acquisition is in New Zealand
dollars. Where payment is made in a currency other than New Zealand dollars, this will involve a conversion of New
Zealand dollars into a different currency at the time of payment. Any such conversion is solely at your own risk. You
will be responsible for any applicable costs, exchange rate spread and fees associated with that conversion and you
agree that these costs will be deducted from the amount payable to you. We will not be responsible for, or have any
liability in connection with, any currency conversion or any fees or other costs that you are required to pay, or which
are deducted from the amount payable to you in connection with facilitating the payment to you in a currency other
than New Zealand dollars (including the exchange rate which applied).
