     *    On June 11, 1999, Vivendi ("Parent") and Onyx Solid Waste Acquisition
          Corp., an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (the
          "Purchaser"), entered into a Shareholder Tender Agreement with a
          shareholder (the "Shareholder") of Superior Services, Inc. (the
          "Company") who owns 2,539,931 shares of the common stock, par value
          $.01 per share, of the Company, including the associated rights to
          purchase common stock (the "Shares"), and who has agreed to tender in
          the Offer and not withdraw all such Shares owned by him. Pursuant to
          the Shareholder Tender Agreement, the Shareholder has granted to the
          Purchaser an option to purchase such Shares. This option is not
          currently exercisable, but will become exercisable upon the occurrence
          of certain events specified in the Shareholder Tender Agreement. The
          Shareholder Tender Agreement is described in Section 11 of the Offer
          to Purchase. Parent and the Purchaser disclaim beneficial ownership of
          Shares that are purchasable by the Purchaser upon exercise of the
          option granted pursuant to the Shareholder Tender Agreement, because
          such option is exercisable only upon the occurrence of certain
          contingent events, none of which have occurred as of the date hereof.
          If the option granted pursuant to the Shareholder Tender Agreement
          were exercised, the Purchaser would have sole right to vote or dispose
          of the Shares issued or acquired as a result of such exercise.

     *    On June 11, 1999, Parent entered into a Stock Option Agreement with
          the Company, pursuant to which the Company granted to Parent an option
          (the "Option") to purchase 6,440,653 Shares, at an exercise price of
          $23.75 per share. The Option is not currently exercisable but would
          become exercisable upon the occurrence of certain events set forth in
          the Stock Option Agreement. On June 11, 1999, Parent and the Purchaser
          also entered into a Shareholder Tender Agreement with a shareholder
          (the "Shareholder") of the Company who owns 2,539,931 Shares and who
          has agreed to tender in the Offer and not withdraw all Shares owned by
          him. In addition, pursuant to the Shareholder Tender Agreement, the
          Shareholder has granted to the Purchaser an option to purchase such
          Shares. This option is not currently exercisable, but will become
          exercisable upon the occurrence of certain events specified in the
          Shareholder Tender Agreement. The Stock Option Agreement and the
          Shareholder Tender Agreement are described in Section 11 of the Offer
          to Purchase. Parent and the Purchaser disclaim any beneficial
          ownership of Shares that are purchasable by Parent or the Purchaser
          upon exercise of the Option, because the Option is exercisable only
          upon the occurrence of certain contingent events, none of which have
          occurred as of this date. Parent and the Purchaser also disclaim
          beneficial ownership of Shares that are purchasable by the Purchaser
          upon exercise of the option granted pursuant to the Shareholder Tender
          Agreement, because such option is exercisable only upon the occurrence
          of certain contingent events, none of which have occurred as of this
          date. If either the Option or the option granted pursuant to the
          Shareholder Tender Agreement were exercised, Parent or the Purchaser,
          respectively, would have sole right to vote or dispose of the Shares
          issued or acquired as a result of such exercise.

         This Amendment No. 2 ("Amendment No. 2") is to the Tender Offer
Statement on Schedule 14D-1 and the statement of beneficial ownership on
