Explanation of Responses:
( 1 )Disposed pursuant to the transactions contemplated under the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of June 22, 2015, as amended, by and among Sequential Brands Group, Inc. ("Sequential"), Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia, Inc. (the "Company"), Singer Madeline Holdings, Inc. (which was renamed Sequential Brands Group, Inc. and is the successor issuer to Sequential and the Company as of the effective time)("Holdings"), Madeline Merger Sub, Inc. and Singer Merger Sub, Inc. (the "Merger Agreement"). In accordance with the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated therein, at the effective time of the merger transactions, Ms. Smyth was entitled to receive merger consideration valued at $6.15 per share.

Remarks:
The disposition of the referenced securities of the Company by the reporting person was made as a result of the business combination of the Company and Sequential Brands Group, Inc. with and into wholly owned subsidiaries of Holdings, Singer Merger Sub, Inc. and Madeline Merger Sub, Inc., respectively, which mergers were consummated on December 4, 2015. As a result of such mergers the Company ceased to be a publicly traded company with Holdings becoming the successor issuer to both the Company and Sequential Brands Group, Inc. The disposition of all such securities by the reporting person was approved and exempted pursuant to Rule 16b-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Reminder: Report on a separate line for each class of securities beneficially owned directly or indirectly.
* If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 4(b)(v).
