EXPLANATORY NOTE
This Amendment No. 11 (this "Amendment") amends and supplements the Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 22, 2020, as amended on June 29, 2020, July 13, 2020 (twice), July 16, 2020, July 27, 2020, July 29, 2020, August 13, 2020, August 17, 2020, September 1, 2020 and October 27, 2020, by the Reporting Persons (as amended from time to time, the "Schedule 13D") relating to their beneficial ownership in Leaf Group Ltd. (the "Issuer"). Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment have the respective meanings set forth in the Schedule 13D.

Items 5(a) of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated as follows:
(a) The information set forth in rows 7 through 11 and 13 of the cover pages to this Schedule 13D is incorporated by reference.
The percentages set forth in this response are based on 34,535,064 shares outstanding provided by 27,390,064 shares of common stock outstanding as of October 26, 2020, as reported by the Issuer in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2020 as filed with the SEC on October 29, 2020 plus 7,145,000 shares issued December 14, 2020 as reported by the Issuer on Form 8-K and Form 424B5 filed December 11, 2020.
