ZASLAV STOCK DIVIDEND RELATED
EMPLOYEE SAR FORM (2014 AWARD)

<Participant Full Name>

Dear <Participant First Name>,            

On May 16, 2014, Discovery Communications, Inc. (the “Company”) declared a
special dividend of shares of the Company's Series C Common Stock (the “Stock
Dividend”) payable on August 6, 2014 (the “Dividend Date”) to holders of record
of the Company's Series A Common Stock, Series B Common Stock and Series C
Common Stock as of the close of business on July 28, 2014. You are the holder of
an unexercised stock appreciation right (or “SAR”) dated <date> which gives you
the right to receive cash and Series A Common Stock based on the increase in
value, if any, between the value of the Company’s Series A Common Stock on the
date the SAR was granted to you (the base price) and the value when the SAR is
exercised (a “Series A Special SAR”). To maintain the value of your Series A
Special SAR following the Dividend Date, the Compensation Committee of the
Company’s Board of Directors (the “Compensation Committee”) has determined it
equitable and appropriate to adjust the Base Price per Share (as defined in the
cover letter to your Series A Special SAR grant agreement (the “Grant
Agreement”)) of your Series A Special SAR, consistent with the adjustment
provisions of the Company equity plan under which your Series A Special SAR was
granted. The Base Price per Share of your Series A Special SAR is now <new Base
Price per Share>. The terms of your Series A Special SAR as documented in your
Grant Agreement, including the payment terms applicable to your SAR, are
otherwise unchanged and remain in full force and effect.

In addition, the Compensation Committee further determined it equitable and
appropriate for the Company to adjust your Series A Special SAR by issuing you
an additional SAR which gives you the right to receive cash and Series C Common
Stock based on the increase in value, if any, between the value of the Company’s
Series C Common Stock as of the Date of Grant of your Series A Special SAR and
the value when the SAR is exercised, assuming that you satisfy the conditions of
the Plan and the implementing agreement (a “Series C Special SAR”). Because this
adjustment to your Series A Special SAR is intended to preserve the benefits or
potential benefits of your Series A Special SAR immediately before the Dividend
Date, the number of SAR shares granted under your Series C Special SAR is equal
to the number of SAR shares underlying the unexercised portion of your Series A
Special SAR as of the Dividend Date and the terms of your Series C Special SAR,
including the Date of Grant, Base Price per Share (as adjusted and described
above), and Scheduled Payment Dates, are otherwise identical to the terms of
your existing Series A Special SAR. A Series C Special SAR cover letter (the
“Series C Cover Letter”) is attached hereto. The Series C Special SAR documented
in your Series C Cover Letter shall otherwise be subject to the same terms and
provisions as are set forth in your Series A Special SAR Grant Agreement, and
references to “Series A Common Stock” in the Grant Agreement shall mean “Series
C Common Stock” for this purpose.

Dear <Participant First Name>            

In connection with the special dividend by Discovery Communications, Inc. (the
“Company”) of shares of its Series C Common Stock, and consistent with the
adjustment provisions of the Company equity plan under which your Series A
Special SAR (defined below) was granted, you have been given a stock
appreciation right (or “SAR”). This stock appreciation right (the “Series C
Special SAR”) gives you the right to receive cash and shares (“Shares”) of
Discovery Communications, Inc. Series C Common Stock based on the increase in
value, if any, between the value of the Company’s Series C Common Stock as of
the Date of Grant (defined below) (the base price) and the value when the Series
C Special SAR is exercised (the “Appreciation Value”), assuming you satisfy the
conditions of the Company equity plan (the “Plan”) under which this grant is
made and the implementing agreement. The terms of this stock appreciation rights
grant are the same as the terms of your stock appreciation rights grant dated
<date> (the “Series A Special SAR”), after reduction for portions of that SAR
that have already been exercised. As such, this Series C Special SAR is subject
to the terms and conditions described in your Series A Special SAR grant
agreement (the “Grant Agreement”). The Company’s general program to offer equity
and equity-type awards to eligible employees is referred to as the Performance
Equity Program (“PEP”). The following represents a brief description of your
grant. Additional details regarding the terms of your award are provided in your
Grant Agreement and in the Plan.

The number of SAR Shares equal to 25% of the original number of Series A Special
SAR Shares shall be automatically exercised and paid within 60 days of any of
the first, second, third, and fourth anniversaries of the Date of Grant that
follow the Dividend Date.

•
You have been granted a stock appreciation right with respect to a certain
number of shares of Discovery Communications, Inc. Series C Common Stock at a
specific price. The Date of Grant of your SAR is the same as the Date of Grant
of your Series A Special SAR. The total number of shares under your grant is in
the chart above under “SAR Shares” and is equal to the number of shares of the
Company’s Series A Common Stock underlying the unexercised portion of your
Series A Special SAR. The base price per share is under “Base Price per Share.”

•
The potential value of your SAR increases if the price of the Company’s stock
increases, but you also have to continue to work for the Company (except as the
Grant Agreement provides) to actually receive such value. Of course, the value
of the stock may go up and down over time.

•
The SAR will be automatically converted into payments in accordance with the
schedule of Scheduled Payment Dates in the chart above, assuming you remain an
employee of the Company (or as otherwise specified in the Grant Agreement) and
subject to the terms of the Grant Agreement, with payment as provided in the
Grant Agreement. On each Scheduled Payment Date you will receive a payment of
Appreciation Value (if any) that is 25% in Shares and 75% in cash.

•
Subject to your ongoing compliance with any agreement, including your Employment
Agreement with the Company dated January 2, 2014, once you have received the
Shares, you will own the Shares and may decide whether to hold the Shares, sell
the Shares, or give the Shares to someone as a gift.
