To the Holders of Common Stock of
  SQUARE INDUSTRIES, INC.:
 
                                  INTRODUCTION
 
     Central Parking System -- Empire State, Inc., a New York corporation
("Purchaser") and an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Central Parking
Corporation, a Tennessee corporation ("Parent"), hereby offers to purchase all
outstanding shares of common stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Shares"), of
Square Industries, Inc., a New York corporation (the "Company"), at a price of
$28.50 per Share net to the seller in cash at the closing (the "Closing") of the
Offer, without interest, and an additional $2.50 per Share to be deposited by
Parent in escrow as contingent consideration for distribution, in whole or in
part, to either the seller or Parent based upon the resolution of two specific
matters, subject to adjustment as provided in the Escrow Agreement (as described
in Section 1 of the Offer to Purchase) (the "Offer Price"), upon the terms and
subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase dated December 13,
1996 (the "Offer to Purchase"), this Supplement to the Offer to Purchase and in
the related Letter of Transmittal (which together constitute the "Offer").
Because of the contingent nature of the escrow matters, there can be no
assurance what amount, if any, of the Escrowed Funds will be distributed to the
shareholders, optionholders and warrant holders of the Company. The Offer is
being made pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of December 6,
1996 (the "Merger Agreement") among Parent, Purchaser and the Company. This
Supplement to the Offer to Purchase (the "Supplement") is being provided to the
shareholders of the Company to clarify certain information contained in the
Offer to Purchase and provide certain supplemental information. The Sections of
this Supplement correspond to the Sections of the Offer to Purchase to which the
supplemental or clarifying information relates. As a result of this Supplement,
the Expiration Date has been extended to 12:00 midnight New York City time on
Friday January 17, 1997. This Supplement should be read in conjunction with the
Offer to Purchase. All capitalized terms used and not defined in this Supplement
shall have the meaning assigned to such term in the Offer to Purchase.
 
     Tendering shareholders will not be obligated to pay brokerage fees or
commissions or, except as otherwise provided in Instruction 6 of the Letter of
Transmittal, stock transfer taxes, with respect to the purchase of Shares by
Purchaser pursuant to the Offer. Purchaser will pay all charges and expenses of
J.C. Bradford & Co., which is acting as Dealer Manager for the Offer (in such
capacity, the "Dealer Manager"), SunTrust Bank, Atlanta (the "Depositary") and
Kissel-Blake Inc., (the "Information Agent") incurred in connection with the
Offer. See Section 16 of the Offer to Purchase.
 
     THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE COMPANY (THE "BOARD") UNANIMOUSLY APPROVED
EACH OF THE OFFER AND THE MERGER (AS DEFINED BELOW) AND HAS DETERMINED THAT EACH
OF THE OFFER AND THE MERGER IS FAIR TO, AND IN THE BEST INTERESTS OF, THE
SHAREHOLDERS OF THE COMPANY (OTHER THAN PARENT AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES), AND
RECOMMENDS THAT SHAREHOLDERS ACCEPT THE OFFER AND TENDER THEIR SHARES PURSUANT
TO THE OFFER.
 
     The Blackstone Group L.P. ("Blackstone"), the Company's financial advisor,
has delivered to the Board its written opinion dated December 6, 1996, to the
effect that, as of such date and based upon and subject to certain matters
stated in such opinion, the Offer Price and Merger Consideration to be received
by the holders of Shares (other than Parent and its subsidiaries) in the Offer
and the Merger is fair to such holders from a financial point of view. A copy of
the opinion of Blackstone is contained in the Company's
Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 (the "Schedule 14D-9"),
which was mailed to shareholders concurrently with the Offer to Purchase and
shareholders of the Company are urged to read the opinion in its entirety for a
description of the assumptions made, factors considered and procedures followed
by Blackstone. In addition, certain affiliates of the Company owning Shares
and/or options and warrants to purchase Shares aggregating 1,038,040 Shares have
entered into an Agreement to Support the Transaction pursuant to which such
affiliates agree to tender their shares and enter into agreements to cash out
their options and warrants, subject to certain exceptions. See Section 10 of the
Offer to Purchase.
 
     THE OFFER IS CONDITIONED UPON, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THERE BEING VALIDLY
TENDERED AND NOT WITHDRAWN PRIOR TO THE EXPIRATION OF THE OFFER A NUMBER
 
                                        1
<PAGE>   3
 
OF SHARES WHICH, TOGETHER WITH ANY SHARES THEN OWNED BY PARENT OR PURCHASER,
REPRESENTS AT LEAST SIXTY-SIX AND TWO-THIRDS PERCENT (66 2/3%) OF THE SHARES ON
A FULLY DILUTED BASIS (FULLY DILUTED SHALL INCLUDE, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ALL
SHARES ISSUABLE UPON THE CONVERSION OF ANY CONVERTIBLE SECURITIES OR UPON THE
EXERCISE OF ANY OPTIONS, WARRANTS OR RIGHTS, UNLESS THE HOLDER THEREOF SHALL
HAVE ENTERED INTO AN AGREEMENT TO CASH OUT SUCH OPTIONS, WARRANTS OR RIGHTS IN
CONJUNCTION WITH THE MERGER AGREEMENT)(THE "MINIMUM CONDITION"). THE OFFER IS
ALSO CONDITIONED UPON, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE EXPIRATION OR TERMINATION OF ANY
APPLICABLE ANTITRUST WAITING PERIODS, WHICH TERMINATED ON DECEMBER 30, 1996. SEE
SECTION 14 OF THE OFFER TO PURCHASE, WHICH SETS FORTH IN FULL THE CONDITIONS TO
THE OFFER.
 
     THE OFFER TO PURCHASE, THIS SUPPLEMENT AND THE RELATED LETTER OF
TRANSMITTAL CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION WHICH SHOULD BE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE
ANY DECISION IS MADE WITH RESPECT TO THE OFFER.
 
1. TERMS OF THE OFFER; EXPIRATION DATE; TREATMENT OF STOCK OPTIONS; CONTINGENCY
   OF PAYMENT OF CERTAIN AMOUNTS OF THE OFFER PRICE, MERGER CONSIDERATION AND
   OPTION CONSIDERATION; ESCROW AGREEMENT.
 
     Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer (including, if
the Offer is extended or amended, the terms and conditions of such extension or
amendment), Purchaser will accept for payment and pay for all Shares (and
deposit the amounts required to be placed in escrow as contingent consideration)
validly tendered on or prior to the Expiration Date (as hereinafter defined) and
not withdrawn as permitted by Section 4. The term "Expiration Date" means 12:00
midnight, New York City time, on Friday, January 17, 1997, unless and until
Purchaser shall have extended the period during which the Offer is open, in
which event the term "Expiration Date" shall mean the latest time and date at
which the Offer, as so extended by Purchaser, shall expire.
 
     The interests of the shareholders, optionholders and warrant holders of the
Company with respect to the Escrowed Funds shall be represented by a committee
comprised of Lowell Harwood and Sanford Harwood (collectively the "Escrow
Committee"). Lowell Harwood and Sanford Harwood have agreed to enter into
consulting agreements with a subsidiary of Parent with total payments under such
agreements equal to $120,000 and $60,000, respectively. In addition, Lowell
Harwood will become a member of the Board of Directors of Parent. While this
could lead to a potential conflict of interest in their role as members of the
Escrow Committee, it should be noted that Lowell and Sanford Harwood and their
immediate family members will be entitled to approximately 59% of any Escrowed
Funds distributed to the shareholders, optionholders or warrant holders of the
Company. As a result, the Company believes that their interest in maximizing the
amount of any such funds distributed to the shareholders, optionholders and
warrant holders of the Company is aligned with the interests of the other
shareholders, optionholders and warrant holders. In addition, Section 8.2 of the
Merger Agreement provides that the Escrow Committee will represent the interests
of the shareholders, optionholders and warrant holders of the Company with
respect to the Escrow Agreement. Therefore, Lowell and Sanford Harwood, having
agreed to act as members of the Escrow Committee, have a contractual obligation
to act as agent for the shareholders, optionholders and warrant holders under
the Escrow Agreement.
 
2. ACCEPTANCE FOR PAYMENT AND PAYMENT FOR SHARES.
 
     Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer (including, if
the Offer is extended or amended, the terms and conditions of any such extension
or amendment), Purchaser will accept for payment, and will pay for, all Shares
(subject to the amounts placed in escrow as described in Section 1 of the Offer
to Purchase) validly tendered prior to the Expiration Date and not withdrawn
promptly after the later to occur of (i) the Expiration Date, (ii) the
expiration or termination of any applicable waiting periods under the Hart-
Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the "HSR Act"), and
(iii) the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions to the Offer set forth in
Section 14 of the Offer to Purchase. The applicable waiting period under the HSR
Act expired at 12:00 midnight on December 30, 1996, without objection by the FTC
or
 
                                        2
<PAGE>   4
 
the Antitrust Division. Subject to applicable rules of the Commission, Purchaser
expressly reserves the right to delay acceptance for payment of, or delay
payment for, Shares pending receipt of any regulatory approvals specified in
Section 15 of the Offer to Purchase or in order to comply in whole or in part
with any other applicable law. Purchaser acknowledges that Purchaser may not
delay acceptance for payment of, or payment for, any Shares upon the occurrence
of any of the conditions specified in Section 14 of the Offer to Purchase
without extending the period of time during which the Offer is open.
 
4. WITHDRAWAL RIGHTS.
 
     Tenders of Shares made pursuant to the Offer may be withdrawn by the
tendering shareholder at any time prior to the Expiration Date. Thereafter, such
tenders are irrevocable, except that they may be withdrawn by such shareholder
at any time after February 11, 1997, unless theretofore accepted for payment by
Purchaser pursuant to the Offer. If Purchaser extends the Offer, is delayed in
accepting for payment or paying for Shares, or is unable to accept for payment
or pay for Shares pursuant to the Offer for any reason, then, without prejudice
to Purchaser's rights under the Offer, the Depositary may on behalf of Purchaser
retain tendered Shares, and such Shares may not be withdrawn except to the
extent that tendering shareholders are entitled to withdrawal rights as
described in this Section 4. Any such delay will be an extension of the Offer to
the extent required by law.
 
     For a withdrawal to be effective, a written, telegraphic, telex or
facsimile transmission notice of withdrawal must be timely received by the
Depositary at one of its addresses set forth on the back cover page of the Offer
to Purchase and this Supplement. Any such notice of withdrawal must specify the
name of the person who tendered the Shares to be withdrawn, the number of Shares
to be withdrawn and the name of the registered holder of such Shares, if
different from that of the person who tendered such Shares. If certificates
evidencing Shares to be withdrawn have been delivered or otherwise identified to
the Depositary, then, prior to the physical release of such certificates, the
serial numbers shown on such certificates must be submitted to the Depositary
and the signature(s) on the notice of withdrawal must be guaranteed by an
Eligible Institution, unless such Shares have been tendered for the account of
an Eligible Institution. If Shares have been tendered pursuant to the procedure
for book-entry transfer as set forth in Section 3 of the Offer to Purchase, any
notice of withdrawal must specify the name and number of the account at the
Book-Entry Transfer Facility to be credited with the withdrawn Shares, in which
case a notice of withdrawal will be effective if delivered to the Depositary by
any method of delivery described in the first sentence of this paragraph.
Withdrawals may not be rescinded, and any Shares properly withdrawn will
thereafter be deemed not to have been validly tendered for purposes of the
Offer. However, withdrawn Shares may be retendered at any time prior to the
Expiration Date by following one of the procedures described in Section 3 of the
Offer to Purchase.
 
     All questions as to the form and validity (including time of receipt) of
any notice of withdrawal will be determined by Purchaser, in its sole
discretion, whose determination will be final and binding. None of Purchaser,
Parent, the Dealer Manager, the Depositary, the Information Agent or any other
person will be under any duty to give notification of any defects or
irregularities in any notice of withdrawal or incur any liability for failure to
give any such notification.
