February 2020 Cash Dividend - $0.06 per share Superior Plus Corp. (“Superior”) today announced its cash dividend for the month of February 2020 of $0.06 per share payable on March 13, 2020. The record date is February 29, 2020 and the ex-dividend date will be February 27, 2020. Superior’s annualized cash dividend rate is currently $0.72 per share. This dividend is an eligible dividend for Canadian income tax purposes.

Restarting Dividend Reinvestment Program Superior has determined to restart its Dividend Reinvestment and Optional Share Purchase Plan ("DRIP"), commencing with the February dividend payable on March 13, 2020. Proceeds from the DRIP will be used for debt reduction and general corporate purposes, which includes funding such retail propane acquisitions. The DRIP will provide Superior's shareholders with the opportunity to reinvest their cash dividends in Superior at a 4% discount to the market price of Superior's common shares.

Under the current terms of the DRIP, eligible shareholders of Superior may elect to automatically reinvest their regular monthly dividends in additional common shares of Superior, without incurring any commissions, service charges or brokerage fees. Shareholders who elect to reinvest cash dividends under the DRIP will receive common shares based upon the average closing price of the common shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) for the five-day trading period ending on the business day immediately prior to the dividend payment date (the “Average Market Price”). The price of the common shares purchased with reinvested dividends will be 96% of the Average Market Price. Common shares purchased through the DRIP will be issued from treasury. Any amendment to the terms of the DRIP will require the prior approval of the TSX.

Beneficial shareholders who wish to participate in the DRIP must provide enrollment instructions to the broker, investment dealer, financial institution or other nominee through which they hold their common shares and should consult such nominee regarding the process and timelines for enrolling. Registered shareholders may enroll in the DRIP by completing an authorization form and submitting the completed form to Computershare Trust Company at the address set out in the DRIP. Further information on Superior's DRIP, including the authorization form for registered shareholders can be found in the Investor Relations section of Superior's website at www.superiorplus.com.
