Reference is hereby
made to the statement on Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 19, 2016, as amended on March
20, 2017, April 3, 2017, September 29, 2017 December 27, 2018, April 23, 2019 and May 23, 2019 (the “
Schedule 13D
”),
with respect to the Common Stock, par value $1.00 per share (the “
Common Stock
”), of Synalloy Corporation, a
Delaware corporation (the “
Corporation
”). Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein are used as defined
in the Schedule 13D. The Reporting Persons hereby amend and supplement the Schedule 13D as follows.
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
Item 3 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read
as follows:
The aggregate purchase price of the 1,221,449
shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons is approximately $12,725,585.43, not including brokerage commissions,
which was funded with partnership funds of Privet Fund LP. Privet Fund LP effects purchases of securities primarily through margin
accounts maintained for it with prime brokers, which may extend margin credit to it as and when required to open or carry positions
in the margin accounts, subject to applicable federal margin regulations, stock exchange rules, and the prime brokers’ credit
policies.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.
Item 4 is hereby amended to add the following:
On August 19, 2019, Privet Fund Management
LLC (“
Privet Management
”) sent a letter to the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the “
Letter
”).
In the Letter, Privet Management updated its previous offer to acquire all of the outstanding shares of the Corporation other than
the shares owned by the Reporting Persons to an offer of $18.50 per share in cash. The updated proposal represents a 32% premium
to the closing per share price of the Corporation on April 22, 2019, the day prior to the disclosure of the Reporting Person’s
interest in acquiring the Corporation. References to the Letter in this Schedule 13D are qualified in their entirety by reference
to the Letter itself, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference as if set forth in
its entirety. No assurances can be given that the terms and conditions of any acquisition proposal will be agreed upon by the Corporation
and Privet Management, that definitive transaction agreements relating to any such transaction will be executed or that a transaction
will be consummated in accordance with that documentation, if at all.
This Schedule 13D is not an offer to purchase
or a solicitation of an offer to sell any securities. Any solicitation or offer will only be made through separate materials filed
with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Holders of Common Stock and other interested parties are urged to read these
materials when and if they become available because they will contain important information. Holders of Common Stock will be able
to obtain such documents (when and if available) free of charge at the Securities and Exchange Commission’s web site, www.sec.gov.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of
the Issuer.
Items 5(a) and
5(c) are hereby amended and restated in their entirety to read as follows:

(a) As of the
date of this filing, the Reporting Persons beneficially own 1,221,449 shares (the “

”), or approximately

Corporation on August 13, 2019, which reported that 8,994,850 shares of Common Stock were outstanding as of August 9, 2019).
(c) Except as
set forth on
Schedule 1
hereto, no transactions in the Common Stock were effected during the past 60 days by the
