Item 11. | Additional Information. |
Item 11 of the Schedule TO is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following paragraphs to Section 15—“Certain Legal Matters—Legal Proceedings” of the Offer to Purchase:
“On August 31, 2017, a third putative class action lawsuit was filed by a single plaintiff in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware (Case No. 1:17-cv-01246), styled Carson v. Supreme et al., against Supreme and individual members of Supreme’s Board of Directors. The Carson case also names Wabash National and Purchaser as defendants. The lawsuit alleges that (i) Supreme, individual members of Supreme’s Board of Directors, Wabash National, and Purchaser violated Sections 14(d) and 14(e) of the Exchange Act by making untrue statements of material fact and omitting to state material facts necessary to make statements in the Recommendation Statement not misleading, and (ii) individual members of Supreme’s Board of Directors violated Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act as controlling persons who had the ability to prevent the issuance of the Recommendation Statement or to cause it to not be materially false or misleading.
The plaintiff seeks (i) an order certifying the action as a class action and appointing plaintiff as the class representative and his counsel as class counsel, (ii) an order declaring that the Recommendation Statement is materially false or misleading, (iii) a preliminary and permanent injunction against the acquisition of Supreme by Purchaser and Wabash National or, in the alternative, to rescind the sale of Supreme and set aside or award plaintiff and the class rescissory damages, (iv) an order directing all defendants to account for all damages caused by them and to account for all profits and any special benefits obtained as a result of their breaches of their fiduciary duties, (v) an award of the costs of the action, including reasonable fees and expenses of plaintiff’s attorneys and experts and (vi) such further relief as the court deems just and proper.”
