EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Amendment No. 4 (this “Amendment”) amends and supplements the Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 4, 2019, as amended on March 4, 2019, March 13, 2019 and April 16, 2019, by the Reporting Persons (as amended from time to time, the “Schedule 13D”) relating to their beneficial ownership in Leaf Group Ltd. (“Leaf” or the “Issuer”). Except to the extent set forth in this Amendment, all information disclosed in the Schedule 13D remains unchanged. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment have the respective meanings set forth in the Schedule 13D. On August 16, 2019, the Reporting Persons ceased to be the beneficial owners of more than five percent of the shares of Common Stock of the Issuer as a result of the expiration of certain unexercised options. The filing of this Amendment No. 4 represents the final amendment to the Schedule 13D and constitutes an exit filing for the Reporting Persons.

ITEM 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

(a) The Reporting Persons beneficially own:

            (i) Fund I directly owns 499,092 shares of Common Stock representing 1.9% of all of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Issuer.

            (ii) Fund II directly owns 211,315 shares of Common Stock representing 0.8% of all of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Issuer.

            (iii) Fund III directly owns 151,881 shares of Common Stock representing 0.6% of all of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Issuer.

            (iv) Fund IV directly owns 269,861 shares of Common Stock representing 1.0% of all of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Issuer.

            (v) Osmium Partners, as the general partner of each of the Funds, may be deemed to beneficially own the 1,132,149 shares of Common Stock held by them representing 4.3% of all of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Issuer.

            (vi) Mr. Lewis individually owns no shares of Common Stock. Mr. Lewis may also be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by Osmium Partners.

            (vii) Collectively, the Reporting Persons beneficially own 1,132,149 shares of Common Stock representing 4.3% of all of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Issuer.

Each Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership with respect to any shares of Common Stock other than the shares owned directly and of record by such Reporting Person.

The percentages set forth in this response are based on the 26,070,117 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of June 30, 2019, as reported by the Issuer in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 as filed with the SEC on August 5, 2019.

(b) Osmium Partners and Mr. Lewis may be deemed to share with Fund I, Fund II, Fund III and Fund IV (and not with any third party) the power to vote or direct the vote of and to dispose or direct the disposition of the 499,092 shares of Common Stock, 211,315 shares of Common Stock, 151,881 shares of Common Stock and 269,861 shares of Common Stock reported herein, respectively.

(c) None

(d) None

(e) On August 16, 2019, the Reporting Persons ceased to be the beneficial owners of more than five percent of the shares of Common Stock of the Issuer as a result of the expiration of certain unexercised options. The filing of this Amendment No. 4 represents the final amendment to the Schedule 13D and constitutes an exit filing for the Reporting Persons.
