Remarks
The acquisition of the referenced securities of the Issuer by the reporting persons was made as a result of the business combination of Old Sequential and Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia, Inc. with and into wholly owned subsidiaries of the Issuer, Singer Merger Sub, Inc. and Madeline Merger Sub, Inc., respectively, which mergers were consummated on December 4, 2015, prior to the filing date for the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Issuer reporting such mergers. As a result of such mergers, Old Sequential ceased to be a publicly traded company with the Issuer becoming the successor issuer to both Old Sequential and Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia, Inc. The acquisition of all such securities by the reporting persons was approved and exempted pursuant to Rule 16b-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
