17/12/23, 10:56 pm, MKTUPDTE

18 December 2023 Update re non-binding indicative proposal On 11 December 2023, Rakon Limited (NZX:RAK) informed the market that its board had received an unsolicited, non-binding, indicative proposal with a view to entering discussions about a potential acquisition of all of Rakon's shares at a proposed price of NZ$1.70 per share in cash via a scheme of arrangement or takeover offer (the Proposal). The Proposal was received from a party in the same industry as Rakon but who is not a competitor to the business. The Rakon board is promptly progressing a proper process to consider whether advancing the Proposal is in the best interests of shareholders as a whole. The board has formed an independent committee to consider, along with its external advisers, the Proposal (including the party's request for exclusivity) and to consider any alternative proposals which may emerge. Rakon independent director, Sinead Horgan, is chairing the committee, which is also comprised of the board chair, Lorraine Witten, and independent directors, Keith Watson and Keith Oliver. The board has also received communications from significant shareholders indicating their support for the board to progress the Proposal. The Proposal, received on 7 December 2023, is incomplete and highly conditional. There is no certainty that any transaction will eventuate from the Proposal, including as to the terms or timing of any transaction. As such, no action is required from shareholders at this time. The company will continue to keep shareholders informed in accordance with its continuous disclosure obligations. -ENDS- Contact: Investor and media Jackie Ellis jackie@ellisandco.co.nz +64 27 246 2505 www.rakon.com About Rakon Rakon is a global high technology company and a world leader in its field.
