#### Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This current report on Form 8-K contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the federal securities laws, including Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. In this context, forward-looking statements often address future business and financial events, conditions, expectations, plans or ambitions, and often include, but are not limited to, words such as "believe," "expect," "may," "will," "should," "could," "would," "anticipate," "estimate," "intend," "plan," "seek," "see," "target" or similar expressions, or variations or negatives of these words, but not all forward-looking statements include such words. Forward-looking statements by their nature address matters that are, to different degrees, uncertain, such as statements about the consummation of the proposed transactions contemplated by that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "<u>Merger Agreement</u>"), by and among the Company, Parent and SUP Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent ("<u>Merger Sub</u>"), pursuant to which, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company (the "<u>Merger</u>") and the related documents (the "<u>Proposed Transactions</u>"), including the expected time period to consummate the Proposed Transactions, and the anticipated benefits thereof. All such forward-looking statements are based upon current plans, estimates, expectations and ambitions that are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions, many of which are beyond the control of the Company and Parent, that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in such forward-looking statements. Important risk factors that may cause such a difference include, but are not limited to: the substantial doubt regarding the Company's ability to continue as a going concern; the consummation of the Proposed Transactions on the anticipated terms and timing, or at all, including obtaining regulatory approvals and receipt of the approval of the Company's stockholders; the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the definitive transaction agreements; the anticipated tax treatment of the Proposed Transactions; the possibility that any of the anticipated benefits of the Proposed Transactions will not be realized or will not be realized within the expected time period; potential litigation relating to the Proposed Transactions; the risk that disruptions from the Proposed Transactions will harm the Company's business, including current plans and operations and that management's time and attention will be diverted on transaction-related issues; potential adverse reactions or changes to business relationships, including with employees, suppliers, customers, competitors or credit rating agencies, resulting from the announcement or completion of the Proposed Transactions; the potential for modification or adjustment of the Merger Agreement; the parties' ability to satisfy their respective conditions and consummate the Proposed Transactions; certain restrictions during the pendency of the Proposed Transactions that may impact the Company's financial performance, operating results, ability to pursue certain business opportunities or strategic transactions or otherwise operate its business; fees, costs and expenses and the possibility that the Proposed Transactions may be more expensive to complete than anticipated, including as a result of unexpected factors or events; the events of industry, market, economic, political or regulatory conditions outside of the Company's control; future fluctuations in the Company's market capitalization and stockholders' equity; the expected timing and process for the deregistration of the Common Shares under the Securities Act; other risks related to the Proposed Transactions that are included in the proxy statement on Schedule 14A filed with the SEC in connection with the Merger (the "<u>Proxy Statement</u>"); and those risks described in Item 1A of Part I of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on March 6, 2025, in Item 1A of Part II of the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, filed with the SEC on May 12, 2025, in Item 1A of Part II of the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, filed with the SEC on August 7, 2025, and the Company's other filings with the SEC. These disclosures are incorporated by reference in this communication. While the list of factors presented here is considered representative, no such list should be considered to be a complete statement of all potential risks and uncertainties. Unlisted factors may present significant additional obstacles to the realization of forward-looking statements. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on this forward-looking information, which is as of the date of this communication. The Company does not intend to update these statements unless required by the securities or other applicable laws to do so, and the Company undertakes no obligation to publicly release the result of any revisions to any such forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this communication.

#### No Offer or Solicitation; Additional Information and Where to Find It
This Current Report on Form 8-K is not intended to and does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to subscribe for or buy or an invitation to purchase or subscribe for any securities or the solicitation of any vote or approval in any jurisdiction, nor shall there be any sale, issuance or transfer of securities in any jurisdiction in contravention of applicable law. In connection with the Merger, the Company intends to file relevant materials with the SEC, including the Proxy Statement. This Current Report on Form 8-K is not a substitute for the Proxy Statement or any other document that the Company may file with the SEC or send to its stockholders in connection with the Merger. STOCKHOLDERS OF THE COMPANY ARE ADVISED AND URGED TO READ THE PROXY STATEMENT AND ANY OTHER DOCUMENTS FILED BY THE COMPANY WITH THE SEC IN CONNECTION WITH THE MERGER BECAUSE THEY WILL CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE COMPANY, THE PROPOSED TRANSACTIONS AND THE BUSINESS TO BE CONDUCTED AT THE SPECIAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS. All such documents, when filed, may be obtained free of charge at the SEC's website (http://www.sec.gov). These documents, once available, and the Company's other filings with the SEC also will be available free of charge on the Company's website at https://www.supind.com/investor-relations/financial-reports.html.

#### Participants in the Solicitation
The Company, its directors and certain of its executive officers and employees may be deemed participants in the solicitation of proxies from the Company's stockholders in connection with the Merger. Information regarding the names of the Company's directors and executive officers and certain other individuals and their respective interests in the Company by security holdings or otherwise is set forth in the Company's definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A for its 2025 annual meeting of stockholders, filed with the SEC on April 3, 2025 (the "2025 Definitive Proxy"), which is available at https://www.sec.gov/ix?doc=/Archives/edgar/data/0000095552/000114036125012052/edge20039491x1_def14a.htm. Please refer to the sections captioned "Voting Securities and Principal Ownership" and "Executive Compensation and Related Information" in the 2025 Definitive Proxy. To the extent that certain Company participants or their affiliates have acquired or disposed of security holdings since the "as of" date disclosed in the 2025 Definitive Proxy, such transactions have been or will be reflected on Statements of Change in Ownership on Form 4 or amendments to beneficial ownership reports on Schedules 13D filed with the SEC, which are available at https://www.sec.gov/edgar/browse/?CIK=95552&owner=exclude. Such filings and the 2025 Definitive Proxy are available free of charge on the Company's website at https://www.supind.com/investor-relations/financial-reports.html or through the SEC's website at http://www.sec.gov. Updated information regarding the identity of potential participants, and their direct or indirect interests in the Company, by security holdings or otherwise, is set forth in the Proxy Statement and other materials to be filed with the SEC in connection with the Merger.
