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)	Pursuant to a Stockholders Agreement, dated as of February 4, 2015, as amended, by and among the Issuer, the Reporting Person, Daniel Meyer, Gramercy Tavern Corp. ("GT"), Union Square Hospitality Group, LLC and Daniel H. Meyer 2012 Gift Trust (collectively, the "Meyer Stockholders") and other signatories party thereto, the Meyer Stockholders have the right to cause all of the shares of the Reporting Person and GT to be exchanged for shares of the Issuer's Class A Common Stock ("Class A Stock") pursuant to a reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Reorganization"). The Meyer Stockholders made such an election with respect to the Reporting Person.
(2)	To effect the Reorganization, a subsidiary of the Issuer merged with and into the Reporting Person, which was then merged with and into the Issuer, resulting in (i) conversion and exchange of shares of the Reporting Person for shares of Class A Stock, (ii) cancellation of the Class B Common Stock of the Issuer held by the Reporting Person, and (iii) transfer of the common membership interests in SSE Holdings, LLC (the "LLC Interests") held by the Reporting Person to the Issuer. The reported transactions are exempt under Rule 16b-6(b) and Rule 16b-7 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
(3)	The LLC Interests held by the Reporting Person are redeemable for an equal number of shares of Class A Stock, without expiration. However, the Reporting Person did not exercise the redemption right prior to the 368(a) reorganization and therefore did not receive an equivalent number of shares of Class A Stock.

Note: File three copies of this Form, one of which must be manually signed. If space is insufficient, see Instruction 6 for procedure.
