<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:9%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On April&nbsp;15, 2020, the Board of Directors (the &#147;<U>Board</U>&#148;) of NN, Inc. (the &#147;<U>Company</U>&#148;), authorized and
declared a dividend of one preferred share purchase right (a &#147;<U>Right</U>&#148;) for each outstanding share of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, of the Company (the &#147;<U>Common Shares</U>&#148;) to stockholders of record at the
close of business on April&nbsp;27, 2020 (the &#147;<U>Record Date</U>&#148;). Except as set forth below, each Right, if it becomes exercisable, entitles the registered holder to purchase from the Company one
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">one-thousandth</FONT> of a share of Series C Junior Participating Preferred Stock, $0.01 par value per share, of the Company (the &#147;<U>Preferred Shares</U>&#148;) at a purchase price of $31.50 per one <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">one-thousandth</FONT> of a Preferred Share (the &#147;<U>Purchase Price</U>&#148;), subject to adjustment as provided in the Rights Agreement. In addition, one Right will automatically attach to each Common Share that
becomes outstanding between the Record Date and the earliest of the Distribution Date (as hereinafter defined), the redemption of the Rights or the expiration of the Rights. The complete terms of the Rights are set forth in a Rights Agreement (the
&#147;<U>Rights Agreement</U>&#148;), dated as of April&nbsp;15, 2020, between the Company and Computershare Inc., as rights agent (the &#147;<U>Rights Agent</U>&#148;). </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:9%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Board adopted the Rights Agreement to ensure that the Board remains in the best position to fulfill its fiduciary duties and to enable all
stockholders of the Company to receive fair and equal treatment. The Rights Agreement is intended to protect the Company and its stockholders from efforts to influence or obtain control of the Company by open market accumulation or other tactics
without paying an appropriate premium, in order to enable all stockholders to realize the long-term value of their investment in the Company. Generally, the Rights Agreement works by imposing significant dilution upon any person or group that
acquires fifteen percent (15%) or more of the Common Shares without the approval of the Board (such person, an &#147;<U>Acquiring Person</U>&#148;). As a result, the overall effect of the Rights Agreement and the issuance of the Rights may be to
render more difficult or discourage a merger, tender or exchange offer or other business combination involving the Company that is not approved by the Board. The Rights Agreement is not intended to interfere with any merger, tender or exchange offer
or other business combination approved by the Board. Nor does the Rights Agreement prevent the Board from considering any offer that it considers to be in the best interest of its stockholders. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:9%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The following description of the terms of the Rights Agreement (which includes as exhibits thereto the Form of Certificate of Designations,
the Form of Right Certificate and the Summary of Rights to Purchase Preferred Shares) does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the detailed terms and conditions set forth in the Rights Agreement, a copy of
which is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.1 and incorporated herein by reference. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>The Rights </I></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:9%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Initially, the Rights will be evidenced by the certificates representing Common Shares then outstanding (or, in the case of Common Shares held
in uncertificated form, by the transaction statement or other record of ownership of such Common Shares), and no separate Right Certificates will be distributed. Upon the occurrence of the Distribution Date, the Rights will separate from the Common
Shares and, as soon as practicable thereafter, separate certificates evidencing the Rights (&#147;<U>Right Certificates</U>&#148;) will be mailed to holders of record of the Common Shares as of the close of business on the Distribution Date, and
such separate Right Certificates alone will evidence the Rights. The &#147;<U>Distribution Date</U>&#148; is the earlier of (i)&nbsp;the close of business on the 10th day after the first date of public announcement that any person has become an
Acquiring Person (such date, the &#147;<U>Shares Acquisition Date</U>&#148;) (or, if the 10th day after the Shares Acquisition Date occurs before the Record Date, the close of business on the Record Date) and (ii)&nbsp;the close of business on the
10th day (or such later date as the Board shall determine, prior to such time as any person becomes an Acquiring Person) after the date that a tender or exchange offer by any person is first published, sent or given, if, upon consummation thereof,
such person would become an Acquiring Person. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:9%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Until the earliest of the Distribution Date, the date that the Rights are redeemed by the
Board and the date on which the Rights expire, (i)&nbsp;in the case of certificated shares, the Rights associated with the Common Shares represented by any certificate will be evidenced by such certificate and the surrender for transfer of any such
certificate shall also constitute the transfer of the Rights associated with the Common Shares represented thereby, and (ii)&nbsp;in the case of Common Shares held in uncertificated form, the Rights associated with the Common Shares shall be
evidenced by the balances indicated in the book-entry account system of the transfer agent for such shares and the transfer of any Common Share in the book-entry account system of the transfer agent for such shares shall also constitute the transfer
of the Rights associated with such shares. Therefore, until the Distribution Date, the Rights may be transferred with and only with the underlying Common Shares of the Company. After that date, the Rights may be transferred only on the registry book
of the Rights Agent. Any Rights held by an Acquiring Person will become null and void and may not be exercised. </P>

payment equal to the greater of (x) $1,000 per Preferred Share (plus an amount equal to accrued and unpaid dividends and distributions thereon) and (y)&nbsp;an aggregate amount per Preferred Share subject to certain adjustments equal to 1,000 times
the aggregate amount to be distributed per share to the holders of the Common Shares. Finally, in the event of any merger, consolidation or other transaction in which Common Shares are exchanged, each thousandth of a Preferred Share will be entitled

all the then outstanding Rights at a redemption price of $0.001 per Right, subject to adjustment (the &#147;<U>Redemption Price</U>&#148;). Immediately upon the action of the Board ordering redemption of the Rights, the Rights will terminate and the
only right of the holders of Rights will be to receive the Redemption Price. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:9%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On April&nbsp;15, 2020, the Board of Directors of our Company, NN, Inc., a Delaware corporation, declared a dividend of one preferred share
purchase right (a &#147;Right&#148;) for each outstanding share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share. The dividend is payable on April&nbsp;27, 2020 to the stockholders of record on April&nbsp;27, 2020. The description and terms of the Rights
are set forth in the Rights Agreement, dated as of April&nbsp;15, 2020 (the &#147;Agreement&#148;), between the Company and Computershare Inc., as Rights Agent (the &#147;Rights Agent&#148;). </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:9%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our Board has adopted the Agreement to preserve the ability of the Board to protect the interests of stockholders in transactions that may
result in an acquisition of control of the Company, including tender offers and open market purchases of the Company&#146;s securities. In general terms, it works by significantly diluting the stock ownership of any person or group that acquires
15%, or more, of our outstanding common stock after the adoption of the Agreement without the approval of our Board. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:9%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">For those interested
in the specific terms of the Agreement, we provide the following summary description. Please note, however, that this description is only a summary, and is not complete, and should be read together with the entire Agreement, which has been filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission as an exhibit to a Report on Form <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">8-K</FONT> filed on April&nbsp;16, 2020. A copy of the Agreement is available free of charge from our Company. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:9%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>The Rights</I>. On April&nbsp;15, 2020, our Board authorized the issuance of a Right with respect to each outstanding share of common stock
on April&nbsp;27, 2020. The Rights will initially trade with, and will be inseparable from, the common stock. The Rights are evidenced by certificates that represent shares of common stock or, in the case of shares of common stock held in
uncertificated form, by the transaction statement or other record of ownership of such shares. New Rights will accompany any new shares of common stock we issue after April&nbsp;27, 2020 until the earliest of the date when the Rights become
exercisable (the &#147;Distribution Date&#148;), the date that the Rights are redeemed by the Board and the date on which the Rights expire. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:9%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Purchase Price.</I> Each Right will allow its holder to purchase from our Company one
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">one-thousandth</FONT> of a share of Series C Junior Participating Preferred Stock (&#147;Preferred Share&#148;) for $31.50 (the &#147;Purchase Price&#148;), subject to adjustment, once the Rights become exercisable.
This portion of a Preferred Share will give the stockholder approximately the same dividend, voting, and liquidation rights as would one share of common stock. Prior to exercise, the Right does not give its holder any dividend, voting or liquidation
rights. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:9%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Exercisability.</I> The Rights will not be exercisable until the close of business on the tenth day after the public
announcement that a person or group has become an Acquiring Person by obtaining Beneficial Ownership (based on a definition of Beneficial Ownership in the Agreement, which differs from and is generally broader than the definition of Beneficial
Ownership under the federal securities laws) of 15% or more of our outstanding common stock (and not being a Grandfathered Stockholder as that term is defined in the Agreement). </P>

or not such interests are considered to be ownership of the underlying common stock or are reportable for purposes of Regulation 13D of the Securities Exchange Act&#151;are treated as Beneficial Ownership of the notional number of shares of the
Company&#146;s common stock referenced in such derivative position for purposes of determining whether a Person is an Acquiring Person and, for purposes of determining whether particular Rights are Beneficially Owned by an Acquiring Person (and
therefore null and void) such Acquiring Person is deemed to be the Beneficial Owner of shares of the Company&#146;s common stock that are directly or indirectly held by counterparties to the derivatives contracts. Swaps dealers unassociated with any
control intent or intent to evade the purposes of the Agreement are excepted from such imputed beneficial ownership. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:9%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Until the earliest
of the Distribution Date, the date that the Rights are redeemed by the Board and the date on which the Rights expire, (i)&nbsp;in the case of certificated shares, the Rights associated with the shares of common stock represented by any certificate
will be evidenced by such certificate, and the surrender for transfer of any such certificate shall also constitute the transfer of the Rights associated with the shares of common stock represented thereby, and (ii)&nbsp;in the case of shares of
common stock held in uncertificated form, the Rights associated with the shares of common stock shall be evidenced by the balances indicated in the book-entry account system of the transfer agent for such shares and the transfer of any shares of
common stock in the book-entry account system of the transfer agent for such shares shall also constitute the transfer of the Rights associated with such shares. Therefore, until the Distribution Date, the Rights may be transferred with and only
with the underlying shares of common stock of the Company. After that date, the Rights will separate from the common stock and be evidenced by Rights certificates that we will mail to all eligible holders of common stock. Any Rights held by an
Acquiring Person will become null and void and may not be exercised. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:9%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Consequences of a Person or Group Becoming an Acquiring Person.

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">CHARLOTTE, N.C., April&nbsp;16, 2020 &#151; NN, Inc. (NASDAQ: NNBR) (&#147;NN&#148; or the &#147;Company&#148;), a diversified industrial company, today
announced that its Board of Directors has adopted a limited duration rights plan (the &#147;Rights Plan&#148;). </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In adopting the Rights Plan, the Board of
Directors has taken note of the substantial increase in market volatility and uncertainty as a result of the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">COVID-19</FONT> pandemic, as well as its impact on NN Inc&#146;s stock price and trading patterns. Given
the current unprecedented environment caused by the pandemic, the recent unusually high trading levels in the Company&#146;s shares, as well as the importance of maintaining focus on the Company&#146;s operations, safeguarding the welfare of
employees and serving customers, the Board believes adopting the Rights Plan is in the best interest of all NN stockholders. The Board also considered the adoption of the Rights Plan at this time to encourage interested parties to participate in the
Company&#146;s ongoing strategic review process, rather than through making unsolicited offers that discourage a full and fair process. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Rights Plan,
dated April&nbsp;15, 2020, has a duration of less than one year, expiring on March&nbsp;31, 2021. It is similar to plans adopted by other public companies, and is intended to promote the fair and equal treatment of all NN stockholders and ensure
that no person or group can gain control of NN through open market accumulation or other tactics without paying an appropriate control premium. The Rights Plan will also position the Company&#146;s Board of Directors to fulfill its fiduciary duties
on behalf of all stockholders by ensuring that the Board has sufficient time to make informed judgments about any sale of part or all of the Company or any attempts to take over the Company. The Rights Plan applies equally to all current and future
stockholders. The Rights Plan has not been adopted in response to any specific takeover bid or other proposal to acquire control of the Company. </P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Under the Rights Plan, NN will issue one right for each share of common stock outstanding at the close of
business on April&nbsp;27, 2020. The rights will become exercisable if a person or group becomes the beneficial owner of 15% or more of the Company&#146;s outstanding common stock (including in the form of synthetic ownership through derivative
positions). In the event that the rights become exercisable due to the triggering ownership threshold being crossed, each right will entitle its holder to purchase, at the right&#146;s exercise price, a number of shares of common stock or equivalent
securities having a market value at that time of twice the right&#146;s exercise price. Rights held by the triggering person or entity will become void and will not be exercisable to purchase shares at such purchase price. The Board of Directors
may, rather than permitting the exercise of the rights, exchange each right (other than rights held by the triggering person or entity) for one share of common stock per right, subject to adjustment as provided in the Rights Plan. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Board of Directors will, prior to the rights becoming exercisable, in general be entitled to amend the Rights Plan or to redeem the rights for $0.001 per
right. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">This announcement is a summary only and is qualified by reference to the full text of the Rights Plan. Additional details regarding the Rights
Plan will be contained in a Form <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">8-K</FONT> to be filed by the Company with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on April&nbsp;16, 2020. </P>
