Ladies and Gentlemen:

You have advised JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“JPMorgan”), Barclays Bank PLC (“Barclays”), Bank of America, N.A. (“Bank of America”), and BofA Securities, Inc. (or any of its designated affiliates, “BofA Securities” and, together with JPMorgan, Barclays, Bank of America and each Additional Agent appointed pursuant to Section 2, the “Commitment Parties”, “us”, “we” or “our”). JPMorgan, Barclays and Bank of America, together with each Additional Agent that assumes a portion of an Incremental Facility pursuant to Section 2 are referred to herein collectively as the “Initial Lenders” and, each an “Initial Lender”) that TTM Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“you” or the “Borrower”), intends to acquire (the “Acquisition”), directly or indirectly through a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Borrower, all of the outstanding equity interests of a company previously identified to us and code named “MacGyver” and certain of its affiliates (collectively, the “Target”) pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) to be entered into with the immediate parent of the Target, in its capacity as seller (the “Seller”) and Target, and to consummate the other transactions described on Exhibit A hereto (collectively, the “Transactions”). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein are used with the meanings assigned to them on the Exhibits attached hereto (such Exhibits, together with this letter, collectively, the “Commitment Letter”).

In connection with the foregoing, you have requested that we commit to provide incremental term loan facilities consisting of Incremental Term Loans (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) pursuant to that certain Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of June 1, 2026 (as amended from time to time, the “Existing Credit Agreement”), among the Borrower and the other parties thereto, in the form of (a) a senior secured term loan A facility in an aggregate principal amount of $300,000,000 (the “Term A Incremental Facility”) and (b) a seven-year senior secured term loan B facility in an initial aggregate principal amount of $800,000,000 (the “Term B Incremental Facility” and collectively with the Term A Incremental Facility, the “Incremental Facilities”), as such amount may be (i) increased, at the Borrower’s option, by any additional amounts necessary to fund original issue discount and/or upfront fees on the Term B Incremental Facility in connection with the exercise of the “Market Flex” provisions set

forth in Section 7 of the Incremental Facility Fee Letter or (ii) decreased, on a dollar-for-dollar basis by the net cash proceeds actually received by the Borrower (including into escrow so long as the conditions to the release from escrow are not more restrictive to the applicable issuer than the conditions to the availability of the Incremental Facilities) of any financing that the Borrower elects in its sole discretion, to incur in order to finance, in whole or in part, the purchase price of the Acquisition.

1. Commitments

In connection with the Transactions, (i) JPMorgan is pleased to advise you of its commitment to provide 33.33% of the principal amount of the Term A Incremental Facility and 39% of the principal amount of the Term B Incremental Facility, (ii) Barclays is pleased to advise you of its commitment to provide 33.33% of principal amount of the Term A Incremental Facility and 30.5% of the principal amount of the Term B Incremental Facility, and (iii) Bank of America is pleased to advise you of its commitment to provide 33.33% of the principal amount of the Term A Incremental Facility and 30.5% of the principal amount of the Term B Incremental Facility, in each case, upon the terms set forth in this Commitment Letter and the Term Sheet and subject only to the conditions set forth in Exhibit C. The commitments and other obligations of the Commitment Parties hereunder are several and not joint.

In connection with the Transactions, each of the Commitment Parties agrees to provide its consent, in its capacity as a lender under the Existing Credit Agreement and a lender in respect of the Term B Incremental Facility, to an amendment to the Existing Credit Agreement to permit the Term A Incremental Facility to mature on the Revolving Termination Date (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement).

2. Titles and Roles

It is further agreed that (i) JPMorgan, Barclays, and BofA Securities, will act as joint lead arrangers and bookrunners for the Incremental Facilities (acting in such capacity, the “Initial Lead Arrangers”, and together with the Additional Agents, the “Lead Arrangers”), and (ii) JPMorgan will have “top left” placement on any materials or other documentation used in connection with the Incremental Facilities and shall hold the role and responsibility associated with such “top left” placement and (iii) Barclays and BofA Securities will have placement immediately to the “right” of JPMorgan in any materials or other documentation used in connection with the Incremental Facilities; provided that the Borrower agrees that JPMorgan may perform its responsibilities hereunder through its affiliate, J.P. Morgan Securities LLC.

Other than the foregoing, you agree that no other lead arrangers, agents, co-agents, arrangers, co-arrangers, bookrunners, co-bookrunners, managers or co-managers will be appointed, no other titles will be awarded and no compensation (other than that expressly contemplated by Exhibit B (the “Term Sheet”) and the Fee Letters referred to below and other than in connection with any additional appointments referred to above) will be paid to any Incremental Lender in connection with the Incremental Facilities unless you and we shall so agree.

3. Syndication

We reserve the right to syndicate the Incremental Facilities to a group of lenders identified by us and approved (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) by you (together with the Initial Lenders, the “Incremental Lenders”); provided that, notwithstanding each Commitment Party’s right to syndicate the Incremental Facilities and receive commitments with respect thereto, it is agreed that, (i) syndication of, or receipt of commitments or participations in respect of, all or any portion of each Commitment Party’s commitments hereunder prior to the date of the consummation of the Acquisition and the Incremental Facility Closing Date shall not be a condition to each Commitment Party’s commitments or the funding of the Incremental Facilities on the Incremental Facility Closing Date; (ii) except as provided above with respect to appointment of Additional Agents, and upon the joinder of such Additional Agent as a Commitment Party pursuant to the immediately preceding paragraph, in respect of the amount allocated to such Additional Agent, the commitment of such Commitment Party to provide its committed portion of the principal amount of the applicable Incremental Facility on the terms and conditions set forth in this Commitment Letter and the Term Sheet shall be reduced only to the extent such other Incremental Lenders (if any) fund their commitments on the Incremental Facility Closing Date; (iii) except as provided above with respect to appointment of Additional Agents, and upon the joinder of such Additional Agent as a Commitment Party pursuant to the immediately preceding paragraph, in respect of the amount allocated to such Additional Agent, such Commitment Party shall not be relieved, released or novated from its obligations hereunder (including its obligation to fund the applicable Incremental Facility on the Incremental Facility Closing Date) in connection with any syndication, assignment or participation of the Incremental Facilities, including its commitments in respect thereof, until after the initial funding of the Incremental Facilities has occurred; (iv) except as provided above with respect to the appointment of Additional Agents, no assignment or novation shall become effective with respect to all or any portion of such Commitment Party’s commitments in respect of the applicable Incremental Facility until after the initial funding of such Incremental Facility; and (v) except as provided above with respect to the appointment of Additional Agents, unless you otherwise agree in writing, each Commitment Party shall retain exclusive control over all rights and obligations with respect to its commitments in respect of the applicable Incremental Facility, including all rights with respect to consents, modifications, supplements, waivers and amendments, until the Incremental Facility Closing Date has occurred.

Such assistance shall include (A) your using commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the syndication efforts benefit from your and your affiliates’ existing banking relationships and, to the extent consistent with the Purchase Agreement, the existing banking relationships of the Target, (B) direct contact between your senior management and advisors and the proposed Incremental Lenders at times and locations reasonably acceptable to you (and, to the extent

Upon the request of any Commitment Party, you will furnish, for no fee, to such Commitment Party an electronic version of your and your subsidiaries’ corporate logos for use in marketing materials for the purpose of facilitating the syndication of the Incremental Facilities (the “License”); provided, however, that the License shall be used solely for the purpose described above and in a manner that is not intended or reasonably likely to harm, disparage or otherwise adversely affect you and your subsidiaries; provided, further, that the License may not be assigned or transferred. For the avoidance of doubt, you will not be required to provide any information to the extent that the provision thereof would violate any law, rule or regulation binding upon you or any of your subsidiaries or affiliates or upon the Target or any of its respective subsidiaries or affiliates or any obligation of confidentiality binding upon, or waive any attorney-client privilege of, you, the Target or your or its respective subsidiaries and affiliates (in which case you agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to have any such confidentiality obligation waived, and otherwise in all instances, to the extent practicable and not prohibited by applicable law, rule or regulation, promptly notify us that information is being withheld pursuant to this sentence); provided that the representation and warranty made by you with respect to information in Section 4 shall not be affected in any way by your decision not to provide such information.

The Lead Arrangers, in their capacities as such, will manage, in consultation with you, all aspects of the syndication including decisions as to the selection of institutions to be approached and when they will be approached, when commitments will be accepted, which institutions will participate, the allocation of the commitments among the Incremental Lenders and the amount and distribution of fees among the Incremental Lenders. You hereby acknowledge and agree that each Lead Arranger will have no responsibility other than to arrange the syndication as set forth herein and each Commitment Party is acting solely in the capacity of an arm’s-length contractual counterparty to the Borrower with respect to the arrangement of the Incremental Facilities and not as a financial advisor or fiduciary to, or an agent of the Borrower or any other person. The Borrower agrees that it will not assert any claim against any Commitment Party based on an alleged breach of fiduciary duty by such Commitment Party in connection with this Commitment Letter and the transactions contemplated hereby. Additionally, the Borrower acknowledges and agrees that none of the Commitment Parties is advising the Borrower as to any legal, tax, investment, accounting, regulatory or any other matters in any jurisdiction. The Borrower shall consult with its own advisors concerning such matters and shall be responsible for making its own independent investigation and appraisal of the transactions contemplated hereby, and no Commitment Party shall have any responsibility or liability to the Borrower with respect thereto. Any review by a Commitment Party of the Borrower, the transactions contemplated hereby or other matters relating to such transactions will be performed solely for the benefit of such Commitment Party and its lending affiliates, and shall not be on behalf of the Borrower.

You acknowledge that the Lead Arrangers on your behalf will make Information Materials available to the proposed syndicate of Incremental Lenders by posting the Information Materials on IntraLinks, SyndTrak or another similar electronic system. At the reasonable request of the Initial Lenders, you agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to assist in the preparation of a version of each Confidential Information Memorandum or other Information Materials (a “Public Version”) consisting exclusively of information with respect to you and your affiliates, the Target and its subsidiaries and the Acquisition that is either publicly available or not material with respect to you and your affiliates, the Target and its subsidiaries and the Acquisition or any of your or their respective securities for purposes of United States federal and state securities laws (such information, “Non-MNPI”). Such Public Versions, together with any other information prepared by you or the Target or your or its affiliates or representatives and conspicuously marked “Public” (collectively, the “Public Information”), which at a minimum means that the word “Public” will appear prominently on the first page of any such information, may be distributed by us to prospective Incremental Lenders who have advised us that they wish to receive only Non-MNPI (“Public Side Lenders”). You acknowledge and agree that, in addition to Public Information and unless you promptly notify us otherwise, (a) term sheets and drafts and final definitive documentation with respect to the Incremental Facilities, (b) administrative materials prepared by the Initial Lenders for prospective Incremental Lenders (such as a lender meeting invitation, allocations and funding and closing memoranda) and (c) notifications of changes in the terms of the Incremental Facilities may be distributed to Public Side Lenders. You acknowledge that any Commitment Party’s public-side employees and representatives who are publishing debt analysts may participate in any meetings held pursuant to clause (D) of the second preceding paragraph; provided that such analysts shall not publish any information obtained from such meetings (i) until the syndication of the Incremental Facilities has been completed upon the making of allocations by the Lead Arrangers freeing the Incremental Facilities to trade or (ii) in violation of any confidentiality agreement between you and the relevant Commitment Party.

In connection with our distribution to prospective Incremental Lenders of any Confidential Information Memorandum and, upon our request, any other Information Materials, you will execute and deliver to us a customary authorization letter authorizing such distribution and, in the case of any Public Version thereof, representing that it only contains Non-MNPI. Such authorization letter and each Confidential Information Memorandum will be accompanied by a disclaimer exculpating you and your subsidiaries and affiliates and us and our affiliates with respect to any liability related to the use or misuse of the contents of the Confidential Information Memorandum or any related marketing material by the recipients thereof.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Commitment Letter or the Fee Letters or any other letter agreement or undertaking concerning the financing of the Transactions to the contrary, (i) the obtaining of the rating referenced above, (ii) the commencement of the syndication set forth in this Section 3, (iii) a Successful Syndication or (iv) the compliance with any of the other provisions set forth in this Section 3, in each case, shall not constitute a condition to the commitments hereunder or the funding of the Incremental Facilities on the Incremental Facility Closing Date or at any time thereafter.

4. Information

You hereby represent and warrant (provided that (i) the accuracy of such representation and warranty shall not be a condition to the commitments hereunder or the funding of the Incremental Facilities on the Incremental Facility Closing Date, subject to Section 7 and (ii) such representation and warranty with respect to the Target prior to the Incremental Facility Closing Date, its operations or assets, is made only to your knowledge), (a) all written information and written data (such information and data, other than (i) projections, pro forma financial information, financial estimates, forecasts and other forward-looking information (the “Projections”) and (ii) information of a general economic or industry-specific nature, the “Information”) that has been or will be made available to the Lead Arrangers by or on behalf of you, the Target or any of your or their representatives in connection with the Transactions, taken as a whole, does not or will not, when furnished to us, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein, when taken as a whole, not materially misleading in light of the circumstances under which such statements are made (after giving effect to all supplements and updates thereto) and (b) the Projections that have been or will be made available to the Lead Arrangers by or on behalf of you or the Target or any of your or their representatives have been or will be prepared in good faith based upon assumptions that are believed by you to be reasonable at the time made and at the time such Projections are provided to the Lead Arrangers; it being understood that the Projections are predictions as to future events and are not to be viewed as facts, the Projections are subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond your control, that no assurance can be given that any particular Projections will be realized, that actual results during the period or periods covered by any such Projections may differ significantly from the projected results, and that such differences may be material. You agree that if, at any time prior to the later of the expiration of the Syndication Period and the Incremental Facility Closing Date, you become aware that any of the representations in the preceding sentence would be incorrect in any material respect if the Information and Projections were being furnished, and such representations were being made, at such time, then you will (or, prior to the Incremental Facility Closing Date, with respect to any such Information and Projections relating to the Target, its subsidiaries or their respective operations or assets, use your commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Target to) promptly supplement the Information and the Projections so that (with respect to Information relating to the Target, its subsidiaries or their respective operations or assets prior to the Incremental Facility Closing Date, to the best of your knowledge), such representations will be correct in all material respects under those circumstances on such date. You understand that in arranging and syndicating the Incremental Facilities we may use and rely on the Information and Projections without independent verification thereof.

You agree (a) to indemnify and hold harmless the Initial Lenders, their affiliates and their and their affiliates’ respective directors, officers, employees, advisors, agents and other representatives (each, an “Indemnified Person”) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities to which any such Indemnified Person may become subject arising out of or in connection with this Commitment Letter, the Fee Letters, the Incremental Facilities, the use of the proceeds thereof or the Transactions or any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding (a “Proceeding”) relating to any of the foregoing, regardless of whether any Indemnified Person is a party thereto, whether or not such Proceedings are brought by you, your equity holders, affiliates, creditors or any other person, and to reimburse each Indemnified Person upon demand for any reasonable and documented legal or other out-of-pocket expenses (but limited, in the case of legal fees and expenses, to one counsel to such Indemnified Persons taken as a whole and, solely in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest, one additional counsel to all affected Indemnified Persons, taken as a whole (and, if reasonably necessary, one local counsel in any relevant jurisdiction to all such persons, taken as a whole and, solely in the case of any such conflict of interest, one additional local counsel to all affected Indemnified Persons taken as a whole, in each such relevant jurisdiction)) incurred in connection with investigating or defending any of the foregoing, provided that the foregoing indemnity will not, as to any Indemnified Person, apply to losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses to the extent they are found by a final, nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to arise from (i) the bad faith, willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Indemnified Person or its controlled affiliates, directors, officers or employees (collectively, the “Related Parties”), (ii) a material breach of the obligations of such Indemnified Person or any of its Related Parties under this Commitment Letter, the Fee Letters or the Facility Documentation or (iii) disputes or Proceedings that are brought by an Indemnified Person against any other Indemnified Person (other than any claims against any arranger, bookrunner or agent in its capacity or in fulfilling its roles as an arranger, bookrunner or agent hereunder or any similar role with respect to the Incremental Facilities) to the extent such disputes do not arise from any act or omission of you or any of your affiliates and (b) regardless of whether the Incremental Facility Closing Date occurs, to reimburse the Initial Lenders and their respective affiliates for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs that have been invoiced prior to the Incremental Facility Closing Date or following termination or expiration of the agreements hereunder (including the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket due diligence costs, syndication costs, travel costs, and the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of the one firm of primary external counsel identified in the Term Sheet and if reasonably necessary, of one local counsel in any relevant jurisdiction and of special counsel) incurred in connection with the Incremental Facilities and any related documentation (including this Commitment Letter and the Facility Documentation) or the administration, amendment, modification or waiver thereof (it being understood, however, that no such amounts shall be due on the Incremental Facility Closing Date except to the extent set forth in paragraph 5 of Exhibit C); provided that the Initial Lenders will use reasonable efforts to notify you when reimbursable legal expenses of primary external counsel exceed $500,000 and at each $250,000 increment thereafter.

(c) Settlement

You shall not, without the prior written consent of the applicable Indemnified Person (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), effect any settlement of any pending or threatened Proceedings in respect of which indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Person unless such settlement (x) includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such Proceedings and (y) does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person or any injunctive relief or other non-monetary remedy.
