End of support also means end of development support, no patches or fixes will be released for splunk 5 (and older).
So if the Spunk 5 encounters a problem, a security vulnerability or an OS compatibility problem, it will not get fixed.
We recommend to upgrade to a supported version before it happens (current supported versions are 6 and 7)
