<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Following Maven&rsquo;s successful launch

in the third quarter of 2017, Rinku will work with the Maven board of directors to accelerate growth of the Company&rsquo;s publisher
coalition, with a focus on establishing Maven as the destination for the most diverse collection of important voices driving global
conversations in 2018 and beyond.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&ldquo;Rinku is known widely as one of the nation&rsquo;s leading
voices on racial justice. That&rsquo;s how we got to know her -- as part of our vision to build a political segment within the
coalition that covers the wide range of perspectives and policy positions,&rdquo; said Maven CEO James Heckman. &ldquo;What we
discovered in the process is that in addition to being a brilliant journalist and advocate, Rinku is an incredible business mind
and talented leader. She&rsquo;s a major addition to our board of directors.&rdquo;</P>
