EXHIBIT INDEX

Investor Group Owning Over 40% of Leaf Group Comments on Resignation of Fourth Board Member in Five Months

Current Board Members Should Evaluate Whether Continued Support of Mr. Moriarty is Worth the Associated Costs

The Time for True Board Refreshment - With Participation of Majority of Shareholders - Is Long Overdue

LOS ANGELES, August 17, 2020 - Investors owning a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of Leaf Group Ltd. ("Leaf Group" or the "Company") (NYSE: LEAF) have publicly called for significant change at the Company.

A group that owns more than 40% of Leaf Group - including Osmium Partners LLC, PEAK6 Investments LLC, Boyle Capital Opportunity Fund, LP, Oak Management Corp., Generation Capital Partners II LP, Generation Partners II LLC, Spectrum Equity Investors V, L.P. and Spectrum V Investment Managers' Fund, L.P. (together, the "Investor Group") - today issued the following joint statement regarding the resignation of Charles "Lanny" Baker from the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board"):

"Mr. Baker is now the fourth director to resign since April and the second director since our Investor Group started demanding significant change - a troubling pattern, which is nearly as unprecedented as a Board that ignores the clearly expressed views of a majority of its shareholders. We remind our fellow shareholders and the Board that Mr. Baker served as the Chairman of the Special Committee that was charged with overseeing the Company's recently completed strategic review process. In its May 20^th letter to shareholders regarding the conclusion of its strategic review, the Company attempted to demonstrate the integrity of this process by stating that "[t]he strategic review was conducted by a Special Committee of the Board of Directors consisting of independent directors."¹  We had already doubted whether the Special Committee could have run a truly independent process, and our doubts only grew as the Board pulled Mr. Baker from its audit committee last month because his service violated bright-line NYSE independence rules. As the Board continues to claim that shareholders should trust the integrity of its strategic review process, Mr. Baker's resignation casts serious doubt on whether the results of the Company's recently completed strategic review process should be trusted.

While we acknowledge that Mr. Baker's resignation is a meaningful step toward eliminating some of the Board's troubling conflicts of interest, his resignation cannot cleanse the already-concluded strategic review process, which was tainted by his lack of independence. To make matters worse, the Board and the Company continue to harp on the outcome of that "failed" process as the rationale for their opposition to shareholders' calls for change. That rationale is misguided at best. The remaining directors should ask themselves why they are so confident that more than half of shareholders are wrong about Leaf Group's need for dramatic change. 

This Board is left fighting a losing battle in opposing a majority of shareholders. Mr. Moriarty will ultimately have to resign or be fired. With that in mind, the directors should seriously evaluate whether maintaining their absolute loyalty to an underperforming CEO is worth the personal risk associated with sacrificing the fiduciary duties the Board owes to the Leaf Group shareholders. 

We do not believe any responsible professional would join the Board as a new director under these circumstances. Nevertheless, we caution the Board that attempting to reinforce their numbers without input and approval from a majority of shareholders will only make members of their shrinking band more vulnerable to criticism. We urge the Board to engage with us to refresh the Board with objective professionals who are prepared to work on behalf of shareholders."
