Get recurring events from sharepoint (2010) with powershell + CAML - powershell

Question

* EDIT: *
Managed to fetch the reccuring events.
How do I overcome the year limit?
<Value Type='DateTime'>
<Year/>
</Value>
I want to get all items, even 5 years ahead.
-------- Original ----------
I am trying to run a PowerShell script to export all events from a SharePoint-2010 calendar including recurring events.
I got references from
https://github.com/CompartiMOSS/SharePoint-PowerShell/blob/master/SharePoint/Administration/PS_HowToDoCAMLQuery.ps1
Expand Recurring Events from a Sharepoint Calendar over WebServices?
The script is running, but the recurring events are not showing.
What am I missing?

Below sample script will return events from Now() till next two years.
if ((Get-PSSnapin "Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue) -eq $null) {
Add-PSSnapin "Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell"
}
$siteURL="http://sp"
$site = Get-SPSite $siteURL
$web = $site.OpenWeb()
$splList = $web.Lists.TryGetList("MyCalendar")
$spqQuery = New-Object Microsoft.SharePoint.SPQuery
$spqQuery.Query = "<Where><DateRangesOverlap><FieldRef Name='EventDate' /><FieldRef Name='EndDate' /><FieldRef Name='RecurrenceID' /><Value Type='DateTime'><Now /></Value></DateRangesOverlap></Where>";
$spqQuery.ExpandRecurrence = $true
$splListItems = $splList.GetItems($spqQuery)
Write-Host $splListItems.Count
