Explanation of Responses:

* If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 4(b)(v).
** Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations. See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15 U.S.C. 78ff(a).
(1) The reporting person previously received a grant of shares of Restricted Stock Units ("RSUs") that represented a contingent right to receive one share of the Company's common stock pursuant to the Differential Brands Group Inc. 2016 Stock Incentive Plan (the "Plan") and previously reported on Table II of a Form 4. These RSUs vested in accordance with the terms of the applicable RSU agreement and the Plan.
(2) (3) These shares are held for the account of Savage Interests LP, a limited partnership of which the reporting person and his spouse are two of the five limited partners. Savage Interests LP has two general partners with which it must act jointly with respect to the voting and investment control of the shares: (i) KAS Interests GP LLC, of which the reporting person is the sole managing member and (ii) CKS Interests GP, LLC of which the reporting person's spouse is the sole managing member. The limited partners of Savage Interests LP have no voting or investment control over the shares. The reporting person disclaims beneficial ownership of common stock held in the account of the LP except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein. The filing of this statement shall not be deemed to be an admission that the reporting person is the beneficial owner of any securities not held directly for his account for purposes of Section 16 of the Securities Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise.
(3) The remaining restricted stock units will vest as follows: (i) 12,887 shares shall vest on June 30, 2018; (ii) 12,886 shares shall vest on September 30, 2018; and (iii) 12,886 shares shall vest on December 31, 2018, subject to continued service as a member of our Board of Directors through the applicable vesting dates.
