%F E.g.f.: 1+log(M(x)), where M(x) is the e.g.f. of A059849 of all pairs of set partitions of {1,2,...,n} whose meet is {{1},{2},...,{n}}.

%F a(n) = m(n) - Sum_{k=1..n-1} C(n-1,k)*m(k)*a(n-k), where m(n) = A059849(n) of all pairs of set partitions of an n-element set having meet {{1},{2},...,{n}}.

%e For n = 2 there are exactly the following two pairs ({{1,2}},{{1},{2}}), ({{1},{2}},{{1,2}} satisfying the imposed conditions.
