As previously disclosed, on August 15, 2025, Soho House & Co. Inc., a Delaware corporation ("***Soho House***"), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "***Merger Agreement***") with EH Parent LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("***Parent***"), and EH MergerSub Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Parent ("***Merger Sub***"). The Merger Agreement provides that, on the terms and subject to the conditions of the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will merge with and into Soho House (the "***Merger***"), with Soho House continuing as the surviving corporation in the Merger.

On December 11, 2025, Soho House filed its definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A (as it may be supplemented from time to time, the "***Definitive Proxy Statement***") with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "***SEC***") with respect to Soho House's special meeting of stockholders (the "***Special Meeting***") to be held in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. The Special Meeting is scheduled to be held on January 9, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time (3:00 p.m. Greenwich Mean Time) via a live webcast.

Soho House wishes to make certain supplemental disclosures in the Definitive Proxy Statement related to the Merger, which are set forth below.

All paragraph headings and page references used herein refer to the headings and pages in the Definitive Proxy Statement before any additions or deletions resulting from the supplemental disclosures set forth herein or any other amendments or supplements, and certain capitalized terms used below, unless otherwise defined, have the meanings set forth in the Definitive Proxy Statement. The supplemental information is identified below by **bold underlined** text. Stricken-through text shows text being deleted from a referenced disclosure in the Definitive Proxy Statement. Except as described herein, the information provided in the Definitive Proxy Statement continues to apply. To the extent that information included in this report differs from or conflicts with information contained in the Definitive Proxy Statement, the information set forth in this report shall supersede and/or supplement the information in the Definitive Proxy Statement.

#### Stockholder Letters
Soho House has received letters from certain purported stockholders of Soho House, claiming that, among other things, the Definitive Proxy Statement is deficient and demanding that certain corrective disclosures be made ("***Stockholder Letters***"). Soho House believes that the Definitive Proxy Statement complies with applicable law and that no further disclosure is required. However, solely to avoid the risks and uncertainties inherent in potential litigation and the risk that lawsuits may be filed that could delay or otherwise adversely affect the consummation of the Merger and to minimize the expense of defending such actions, Soho House has decided to voluntarily supplement its disclosures related to the Merger, as set forth below. Nothing in such supplemental disclosures shall be deemed an admission of liability or of the legal necessity or materiality under applicable law of any of the disclosures set forth therein. To the contrary, Soho House specifically denies all allegations in the Stockholder Letters and any assertion that additional disclosure was or is required.

Any such resolution shall not apply to shares represented by a certificate until such certificate is surrendered to the Corporation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The shares of the stock of the Corporation shall be transferable in the manner prescribed by law and in the Voting Agreement, the Certificate of Incorporation and these Bylaws. In the case of certificated shares of stock, transfers shall be made on the books of the Corporation only by the holder thereof or by such holder's attorney duly authorized in writing, upon surrender for cancellation of certificate(s) for at least the same number of shares, with an assignment and power of transfer endorsed thereon or attached thereto, duly executed, with such proof of the authenticity of the signature as the Corporation or its agents may reasonably require. In the case of uncertificated shares of stock, transfers shall be made on the books of the Corporation only upon receipt of proper transfer instructions from the registered holder of the shares or by such person's attorney duly authorized in writing, and upon compliance with appropriate procedures for transferring shares in uncertificated form. No transfer of stock shall be valid as against the Corporation for any purpose until it shall have been entered in the stock records of the Corporation by an entry showing from and to whom transferred.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Every holder of stock in the Corporation represented by certificates shall be entitled to have a certificate signed by, or in the name of the Corporation by any two authorized officers certifying the number and class of shares of stock of the Corporation owned by such holder.

Any or all of the signatures on such certificates may be an electronic signature. In case any officer, transfer agent or registrar who has signed or whose electronic signature has been placed upon a certificate has ceased to be such officer, transfer agent or registrar before such certificate is issued, it may be issued by the Corporation with the same effect as if he or she were such officer, transfer agent or registrar at the date of issue.

Section 5.02&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Lost, Stolen, Mutilated or Destroyed Certificates</u>. As a condition to the issue of a new certificate of stock or uncertificated shares in the place of any certificate theretofore issued and alleged to have been lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed, the Corporation may require the owner of any such certificate, or such owner's legal representatives, to give the Corporation a bond in such sum and in such form as it may direct or to otherwise indemnify the Corporation against any claim that may be made against it on account of the alleged loss, theft, mutilation or destruction of any such certificate or the issuance of such new certificate or uncertificated shares.

The Corporation may authorize the issuance of such new certificate without any bond when in its judgment it is proper to do so.

In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment thereof, or entitled to express consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, or entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights, or entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any change, conversion or exchange of stock, or for the purpose of any other lawful action, the Board of Directors may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted and which record date, unless otherwise required by law, shall not be more than 60 nor less than 10 days before the date of such meeting. If the Board of Directors so fixes a date, such date shall also be the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting unless the Board of Directors determines, at the time it fixes such record date, that a later date on or before the date of meeting shall be the date for making such determination. If no such record date is fixed by the Board of Directors, then the record date shall, unless otherwise required by law, be at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which notice of such meeting is given, or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held.

Subject to any restrictions imposed by the Board of Directors or Chairman, any Officer of the Corporation may delegate contractual powers to others under his or her jurisdiction, it being understood, however, that any such delegation of power shall not relieve such officer of responsibility with respect to the exercise of such delegated power.

Section 7.06&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Voting Agreement</u>. If and only to the extent that there is any conflict between the provisions of the Voting Agreement on the one hand and the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws or other organization documents of the Corporation on the other hand, the Voting Agreement shall, as between the parties thereto, prevail.
