<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">CHICAGO&ndash;BUSINESSWIRE&ndash;MAY 28, 2020
 &ndash; UPG Enterprises LLC (&ldquo;UPG&rdquo; or &ldquo;we&rdquo;), a strategic operator of a diverse set of industrial companies
focused on metals, manufacturing, distribution and logistics, is a sizable stockholder of Synalloy Corporation (NASDAQ: SYNL) (&ldquo;Synalloy&rdquo;
or the &ldquo;Company&rdquo;). UPG and Privet Fund Management LLC (together with its affiliates, &quot;Privet&quot; and collectively
with UPG, the &ldquo;Stockholder Group&rdquo;) collectively own approximately 24.9% of the outstanding common stock of Synalloy.
The Stockholder Group has nominated five highly-qualified nominees for election to the Company&rsquo;s eight-member Board of Directors
(the &ldquo;Board&rdquo;) at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the &ldquo;Annual Meeting&rdquo;) scheduled to be held on June
30, 2020.</P>

issued the following open letter to Synalloy employees and stakeholders:</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">Dear Synalloy Employees and Stakeholders,</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">I write to you today to discuss a path forward
towards a STRONGER SYNALLOY. UPG became a sizable stockholder of Synalloy earlier this year because we believe there is tremendous
value to unlock for the Company&rsquo;s stakeholders following a decade of mismanagement on the part of the current corporate leadership
team. Together with fellow stockholder Privet, UPG has developed a comprehensive plan to strengthen Synalloy and reposition it
as a thriving public company for years to come. We intend to implement this plan if our efforts to overhaul Synalloy&rsquo;s Board
are successful at the upcoming Annual Meeting.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">UPG is a proven, successful operator of eight
manufacturing businesses that periodically makes minority investments in undermanaged or undervalued public companies &ndash; certainly
not an &ldquo;activist investor&rdquo; or &ldquo;corporate raider&rdquo; seeking to acquire Synalloy. We fully understand the fundamental
challenges stakeholders of small market capitalization companies face in today&rsquo;s competitive industrial environment. We have
been fortunate in our own right to shine in the face of consolidation and volatility by maintaining a true community environment
with employees, customers, vendors, business-level management teams and the municipalities in which each of our plants operate.
UPG&rsquo;s &ldquo;Stronger Together&rdquo; motto is not a tagline, but rather an operating philosophy derived from the fact that
our value as a company is stronger because we collaborate with all stakeholders to understand their needs and how they are impacted
by our decisions.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">Since our founding as Union Partners in 2014,
this partnership approach has been engrained in UPG&rsquo;s DNA. It led us to immediately recognize that our most important assets
are the thousands of individuals working alongside us. Today, we have a vibrant corporate culture that encourages autonomous decision-making
at the local level and efficient, mutually-beneficial collaboration with management. My colleagues and I work hard to maintain
this culture every day by:</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">I would be remiss at this time to not acknowledge
that the world has changed a great deal over the past few months. But rest assured that we have remained intently focused on planning
for an effective transformation that accounts for how COVID-19 may continue to impact Synalloy&rsquo;s businesses and the broader
economy. Our team at UPG has repeatedly helped industrial businesses navigate economic downturns and remain strong amidst turbulent
times. If I were to be privileged enough to become interim Chief Executive Officer at Synalloy, stakeholders can trust that I will
bring that experience as well as an unwavering commitment to open and honest communication as I work tirelessly to lead the Company
through the uncertain economic times ahead.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">While new leadership and a superior plan can
help initiate Synalloy&rsquo;s turnaround, long-term success will ultimately be driven by dedicated team members showing up for
the first, second and third shift. A brighter future has little to do with corporate executives flying in for a &ldquo;check-up&rdquo;
every couple of months. All stakeholders have my commitment that my fellow nominees and I will help bring the roll-up-your-sleeves
mentality of an operator to Synalloy&rsquo;s boardroom and executive team. You can trust that we will work to do what is best for
employees, provide individual and collective growth opportunities, consider everyone&rsquo;s opinions and act with integrity as
we represent Synalloy.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">I look forward to working side-by-side with
all of you. Together, I believe we can make Synalloy a world-class organization.</P>
