EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

Exhibit 10.1

EXECUTION COPY

This Employment Agreement (“Agreement”) is made as of the date set forth on the signature page hereof (the “Effective Date), by and between Discovery Communications, LLC (“Company”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Warner Bros. Discovery, Inc., and Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx (“Executive”).

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, Company and Executive wish to enter into this Agreement to provide for Executive’s continued service to Company;

WHEREAS, Executive and Company were party to that certain Employment Agreement, dated as of August 8, 2014, as well the amendments thereto, dated as of September 24, 2015 and February 9, 2018, respectively (collectively, the “Prior Employment Agreement”); and

WHEREAS, although the Prior Employment Agreement expired on February 14, 2022, Executive continued to be employed under the terms thereof, and Executive and Company now desire for this Agreement to supersede and replace in all respects the Prior Employment Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, as a condition to and in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants set forth in this Agreement, Company hereby offers Executive and Executive hereby accepts employment upon the terms and conditions set forth herein:

I.	DUTIES, ACCEPTANCE, LOCATION

Company hereby employs Executive to render exclusive and full-time services as Chief Revenue and Strategy Officer, on the terms and conditions set forth herein. Executive’s duties shall be consistent with his title, and at all times during the Term of Employment, the following divisions of Company will report to Executive or his designees: US only: Ad Sales, Network Distribution, Content Licensing & Home Entertainment; and Global: Corporate Development & Strategy, Legal, Consumer Products & Experiences, Streaming Platform Agreements. Executive’s primary work location shall be Company’s offices in New York City, but Executive shall make himself available for travel to other locations as business needs reasonably require.

Subject to Section IV(D)(1) hereof, if Company deems it necessary, Company reserves the right to change the location where Executive works, and the individual and/or position to whom/which Executive reports; provided that Executive shall not report to a position at a level lower than Chief Executive Officer of Warner Bros. Discovery, Inc.

Executive hereby accepts such employment and agrees to render the services described above. Throughout his employment with Company, Executive agrees to serve Company faithfully and to the best of his ability, and to devote his full business time and energy to perform the duties arising under this Agreement in a professional manner that does not discredit, but furthers the interests of Company. Executive hereby waives any entitlements to severance under the Prior Employment Agreement as a result of the failure of Company to make a Qualifying Renewal Offer (as defined in the Prior Employment Agreement).

II.

TERM OF EMPLOYMENT

Subject to Section IV, Executive’s term of employment under this Agreement shall be three (3) years beginning on the Effective Date and ending on the day prior to the third (3^rd) anniversary of the Effective Date (the “End Date”) (“Term of Employment”).

Company shall have the option to enter negotiations with Executive to renew this Agreement with Executive for an additional term. If Company wishes to exercise its option to enter negotiations with Executive to renew this Agreement, it shall give Executive written notice of its intent to enter such negotiations to renew no later than one hundred twenty (120) days prior to the end of the Term of Employment. Executive and Company agree then to negotiate with each other exclusively and in good faith until the end of the Term of Employment. The Term of Employment may not, however, be extended unless by mutual written agreement of Company and Executive as to all of the material terms and conditions of the extension. In the event the parties do not enter into an agreement to extend the Term of Employment for an additional term, this Agreement shall expire and the Term of Employment shall end on the End Date; provided, however, that if Company does not make a Qualifying Renewal Offer (as defined below), Executive shall be eligible for a severance payment pursuant to Section IV(D)(2) herein in connection with his Separation from Service (as defined herein) at the end of the Term of Employment (and assuming that he was willing and able at the end of the Term of Employment to perform future services, whether for Company or any other party). If Company has made a Qualifying Renewal Offer, but Executive declines the offer and terminates employment at the end of the Term of Employment, Executive shall not be eligible for any Severance Payment from Company but shall be eligible for a Noncompetition Payment (as defined by, and in accordance with, Section VI (G), below) For these purposes, a Qualifying Renewal Offer is an offer to renew this Agreement with a meaningful increase in base salary and a bonus target that is at least the same level as in effect at the end of the Term of Employment, and with other material terms that are as favorable in the aggregate as the material terms of this Agreement.

III.

COMPENSATION

Base Salary. Company shall pay Executive an annual base salary of Two Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,500,000), effective as of April 8, 2022. The Base Salary shall, with respect to each year during the Term of Employment, be paid over the course of twelve (12) months in increments paid on regular Company paydays, less such sums as law requires Company to deduct or withhold. Executive’s future Base Salary increases shall be reviewed and decided in accordance with Company’s standard practices and procedures as generally applied to similarly situated senior executives of Company (“Senior Executives”). The Chief Executive Officer of Company shall not be considered a Senior Executive. The annual base salary payable to Executive under this Section III(A), as may be increased from time to time, shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Base Salary.”

Bonus/Incentive Payment. In addition to the Base Salary paid to Executive pursuant to Section III(A), Executive shall be eligible to participate in Company’s then-effective annual incentive compensation plan with an annual incentive payment target of Two Hundred Percent (200%) of Base Salary (“Target”), effective as of April 8, 2022. The portion of the incentive payment payable to Executive shall be determined and paid in accordance with Company’s then-effective annual incentive compensation plan (e.g., subject to reduction for Company/division under-performance and increase for Company/division over-performance).

Benefits/Vacation. During the Term of Employment, Executive shall be entitled to participate in and receive benefits under Company’s employee benefit plans, programs and arrangements which Executive is eligible for participation in (and, for those plans which require a voluntary election, Executive elects to participate in). In addition, Executive shall be entitled to vacation days pursuant to Company’s vacation policy, provide that Executive shall be eligible to receive no less than twenty (20) vacation days per full year.

Equity Program. Executive shall receive an award of Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) under the Warner Bros. Discovery, Inc. Stock Incentive Plan or a successor plan (the “Stock Plan”) on July 15, 2022 (the “Promotion RSUs”). Subject to the terms and conditions of the Stock Plan and implementing award agreements, the Promotion RSUs shall vest over a period of three (3) years, in three (3) substantially equal installments beginning on the first anniversary of the Effective Date, with the third installment vesting on a date no later than the day before the third anniversary of the Effective Date. The number of Promotion RSUs shall be calculated by dividing the target value of Two Million Dollars

($2,000,000) by the closing price of Warner Bros Discovery, Inc. shares on the last trading day before the date of grant, rounded up to the nearest whole share. Subject to the approval of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Warner Bros. Discovery, Inc., beginning in 2023 and for the balance of the Term of Employment, Executive shall receive an annual equity award under the Stock Plan at an annual target value of Eight Million and Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($8,500,000) during the normal annual grant cycle in accordance with Company’s then-standard practices and procedures for awards to Senior Executives (the “Annual Equity Grant”). The equity instruments, terms and conditions, and calculation of number of units shall be based on Company’s then-standard practices and procedures for awards to Senior Executives. In the award agreements granting the Promotion RSUs and any Annual Equity Grant, Company hereby agrees to provide that if an Approved Transaction, Control Purchase, or Board Change, as such terms are defined in the Stock Plan (each a “Change in Control”), occurs before such equity award has vested and provided that there is an equitable substitution or replacement for the equity award in connection with a Change in Control, the vesting of the equity award shall fully accelerate as a result of the Change in Control only if (i) within 12 months after the Change in Control, (A) the Company or a Subsidiary (as defined in the Stock Plan) terminates Executive’s employment other than for Cause, or (B) if Executive resigns for Good Reason, or (ii) during such 12-month period after the Change in Control, Executive is given notice by the Company that, in connection with a termination of Executive’s employment by the Company other than for Cause, Executive shall no longer be required to provide services for the Company or its affiliates or subsidiaries as an employee and Executive ceases to provide such services, but due to the length of any statutorily or contractually required notice period, Executive’s employment actually terminates following the expiration of such 12-month period. Any accelerated vesting as described in the preceding sentence shall occur only if and to the extent permitted under Section 409A of the Code and the regulations thereunder.

Expenses. Company shall reimburse Executive for business, travel and entertainment expenses reasonably and actually incurred during the performance of Executive’s duties pursuant to this Agreement to the extent such reimbursement is sought in accordance with Company’s business, travel, and entertainment policies and procedures.

Travel. Executive will be entitled to business travel benefits and opportunities under Company’s travel policies.

Indemnification; Director and Officer Liability Insurance.

Company agrees to indemnify, defend, protect and hold Executive harmless, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, including, without limitation, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, demands, deficiencies, threats, liabilities, obligations, costs and expenses, including, without limitation, judgments, amounts paid in settlement or otherwise, and the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and other professionals, experts and advisors (collectively, “Losses”) arising out of or relating to any civil, administrative, regulatory or criminal action, governmental investigation, inquiry, arbitration or other proceeding or claim of any kind, or any threat thereof, whether or not matured or inchoate, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, vested or contingent, formal or informal, or arising from past, present or future activities (a “Proceeding”) incurred or suffered by or imposed upon Executive in connection with or related to the performance by Executive of any of his duties or responsibilities pursuant to and in compliance with this Agreement., regardless whether Executive is an employee of Company at the time of the Proceeding or when the Loss is incurred. In the event of any claim or service of process upon Executive involving the indemnification herein, Executive shall promptly notify Company of the claim. Company will promptly adjust, settle, defend or otherwise dispose of such claim in its sole discretion and at its sole cost. Company will promptly reimburse Executive for all Losses as they are incurred by Executive and in advance of the final disposition of any Proceeding upon Executive’s written demand in connection with investigating, preparing or defending any such Proceeding, provided however, that Executive hereby agrees to repay to Company any and all expense reimbursement and/or advancement, but only to the extent it is determined by final adjudication from which there is no further right of appeal that the Losses relating to such Proceeding, for which expenses were reimbursed or advanced, were the result of Executive ‘s acts or failure to act which were in bad faith or with criminal intent. In furtherance of the foregoing, Executive shall be eligible for and entitled to insurance coverage under Company’s director and officer liability insurance and employment practices liability insurance policies in accordance with those policies and in amounts similar to coverage afforded other Senior Executives for activities on behalf of Company or any entity that directly or indirectly, through one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with Company (“control” of Company or any other entity meaning the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of such entity, whether through the ownership of voting securities or other interests, by contract or otherwise) (an “Affiliate”; provided, however, that no stockholder of Warner Bros. Discovery, Inc. shall be an Affiliate of Company for purposes of this Agreement). Nothing herein shall limit Executive’s eligibility for indemnification in accordance with Company’s corporate governance requirements.

IV.

TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT

Death. If Executive should die during the Term of Employment, the Term of Employment shall automatically terminate. No further amounts or benefits shall be payable except earned but unpaid Base Salary, accrued but unused vacation, unreimbursed business expenses, and those benefits that may vest in accordance with the controlling documents for other relevant Company benefit programs, which shall be paid in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and such other Company benefit programs, including the terms governing the time and manner of payment (the “Accrued Benefits”). Company also shall pay a prorated portion of Executive’s annual bonus Target for the calendar year of Executive’s death based on the amount of time Executive was employed during that calendar year (and subject to achievement of any applicable performance metrics), payable at the time annual bonuses are ordinarily paid to Senior Executives, but in no event shall it be paid later than March 15^th of the year following the calendar year of Executive’s death. Executive’s then-outstanding equity awards under the Stock Plan shall be treated in accordance with the applicable plan documents and implementing award agreements.

Inability To Perform Duties. If, during the Term of Employment, Executive should become physically or mentally disabled, such that he is unable to perform his duties under Sections I (A) and (C) hereof for (i) a period of six (6) consecutive months or (ii) for shorter periods that add up to six (6) months in any eight (8)-month period, by written notice to Executive given while Executive remains disabled and within sixty (60) days following satisfaction of the criteria set forth in clause (i) or (ii), Company may terminate the Term of Employment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Term of Employment shall terminate upon Executive incurring a “separation from service” under the medical leave rules of Code Section 409A (as defined in Section VIII(I)). In such case, no further amounts or benefits shall be payable to Executive, except that Executive shall (i) receive the Accrued Benefits, (ii) receive a prorated portion of Executive’s annual bonus at Target for the calendar year of Executive’s separation of service based on the amount of time Executive was employed during that calendar year (and subject to achievement of any applicable performance metrics), payable at the time annual bonuses are ordinarily paid to Senior Executives, but in no event shall it be paid later than March 15^th of the year following the calendar year, and (iii) be eligible to elect to (x) receive continued coverage under Company’s relevant medical or disability plans to the extent permitted by, and under the terms of, such plans and to the extent such benefits continue to be provided to other former Senior Executives generally or (y) receive COBRA continuation of the group health benefits previously provided to

Executive and his dependents (provided Executive timely elects such COBRA coverage) in which case Company shall pay the premiums for such COBRA coverage up to the maximum applicable COBRA period, provided that if Company determines that the provision of continued group health coverage at Company’s expense may result in Federal taxation of the benefit provided thereunder to Executive (e.g., because such benefits are provided by a self-insured basis by Company), then Executive shall be obligated to pay the full monthly premium for such coverage and, in such event, Company shall pay Executive, in monthly installments, an amount equivalent to the monthly premium for COBRA coverage for the remaining balance of the maximum applicable COBRA period (provided, that Company shall cease to pay such COBRA premiums at such time that Executive obtains new employment and is eligible for health insurance benefits from a new employer). Executive’s then-outstanding equity awards under the Stock Plan shall be treated in accordance with the applicable plan documents and implementing award agreements.

Termination For Cause.

Company may, subject to Section IV(C)(2), terminate the Term of Employment for Cause by written notice. “Cause” shall mean: (i) the conviction of, or nolo contendere or guilty plea, to a felony (whether any right to appeal has been or may be exercised); (ii) conduct constituting embezzlement, misappropriation or fraud, whether or not related to Executive’s employment with Company; (iii) conduct constituting a financial crime, material act of dishonesty or conduct in material violation of Company’s Code of Ethics or other Company written policies; (iv) improper conduct substantially prejudicial to Company’s business (whether financial or otherwise); (v) willful unauthorized disclosure or use of Company confidential information; (vi) material improper destruction of Company property; or (vii) willful misconduct in connection with the performance of Executive’s duties.

In the event that Executive materially neglects his duties under Section I(A) or Section I(C) hereof or engages in other conduct that constitutes a breach by Executive of this Agreement, including any conduct constituting Cause (collectively, “Breach”), Company shall so notify Executive in writing. Other than a Breach that is not susceptible to cure, Executive shall be afforded a one-time-only opportunity to cure the noted Breach within ten (10) days from receipt of such notice. If no cure is achieved within this time, or if Executive engages in the same Breach a second time after once having been given the opportunity to cure, Company may terminate the Term of Employment by written notice to Executive.

Any termination of the Term of Employment pursuant to Sections IV(C)(1) or Section IV(C)(2) hereof shall be considered a termination of Executive’s employment for “Cause” and upon such termination, Executive shall only be entitled to receive any amounts or benefits hereunder that have been earned or vested at the time of such termination in accordance with the terms of the applicable governing Company plan(s) (including the provisions of such plan(s) governing the time and manner of payment), and/or as may be required by law. “Cause” as used in any such Company plan shall be deemed to mean solely the commission of acts described in Section IV(C)(1) or Section IV(C)(2) hereof (after giving effect to the cure opportunity described in Section IV(C)(2)).

Termination Of Employment By Executive for Good Reason/Termination of Employment by Company Not For Cause.

Company may terminate the Term of Employment not for Cause (as defined above), and Executive may terminate the Term of Employment for “Good Reason” as defined herein. “Good Reason” for purposes of this Agreement shall only mean the occurrence of any of the following events without Executive’s consent: (a) a material reduction in Executive’s duties or responsibilities as identified in Section I(A), provided that such material reduction should not include removal of Legal and/or Consumer Products and Experience divisions from Executive’s duties or responsibilities; (b) Company’s material change in the location of Company office where Executive works (i.e., relocation to a location outside the New York, NY metropolitan area); or (c) a material breach of this Agreement by Company, including a change in the position to which Executive reports as set forth in Section I(B); provided however, that Executive must provide Company with written notice of the existence of the reduction, change or breach constituting Good Reason within sixty (60) days of any such event having occurred, and allow Company thirty (30) days to cure the same. If Company so cures the reduction, change or breach, Executive shall have no basis for terminating the Term of Employment for Good Reason with respect to such cured reduction, change or breach. Executive must terminate his employment in writing within five (5) days following the expiration of Company’s cure period for the termination to be on account of Good Reason or such right shall be deemed waived.

(i) If Company terminates the Term of Employment not for Cause, (ii) if Company elects not to renew the Term of Employment in circumstances that trigger Executive’s entitlement to severance under Section II(B), or (iii) if Executive terminates the Term of Employment for Good Reason, then Company shall pay Executive the Accrued Benefits. In addition, Company shall make the following payments (collectively, the “Severance Payment”):

(a) Commencing on the Release Deadline (as defined below), Company shall pay Executive his Base Salary for the period beginning on Executive’s termination date through the period which is the longest of (i) the balance of the Term of Employment up to a maximum of twenty-four (24) months, (ii) twelve (12) months, and (iii) the number of weeks of severance to which Executive would have been entitled had Company’s then-current redundancy severance plan applied to Executive’s termination, except that the first installment payment shall include any installments that would have been payable between the date of termination and the Release Deadline had the release requirement under Section (IV)(D)(3) hereof been satisfied on the date of termination (the “Base Salary Continuation”). For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the Base Salary Continuation period be longer than twenty-four (24) months. In the event the Base Salary Continuation period is calculated under Section 2(a)(ii) or 2(a)(iii) of this paragraph and Company relieves Executive of all of Executive’s work responsibilities for some period of time prior to the effective date of Executive’s termination of employment, this period of “garden leave” shall be offset against the number of weeks of Base Salary Continuation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the period of garden leave may in no event exceed thirteen (13) weeks.

Except as provided in this Section IV(D)(2) with respect to the first installment payment, the Base Salary Continuation shall be paid in substantially equal increments on regular Company paydays, less required deductions and withholdings, until the balance is paid in full.

(b) Notwithstanding anything in Company’s then-effective annual incentive compensation plan to the contrary, Executive shall be paid a bonus at Target under Section III(B) for each full calendar year within the Base Salary Continuation period (which, for clarity, will include the year in which termination occurs). For any partial calendar year within which the Base Salary Continuation period ends, Executive shall only be entitled to a prorated Target bonus based on the elapsed time from January 1 of such partial year through the last day of the Base Salary Continuation period. The bonus/incentive payment portions of the Severance Payment shall be paid to Executive in a single lump sum on the date that Company pays bonuses/incentive payments to its other Senior Executive for the applicable then- effective annual incentive compensation plan year.

(c) Company shall reimburse Executive for up to eighteen (18) months of post-termination continued health coverage (medical, dental, and vision) under the applicable Company medical plan pursuant to COBRA, should Executive be eligible for and elect COBRA. These reimbursements shall be subject to required withholdings. If Company determines the provision of continued medical coverage at Company’s sole or partial expense may result in Federal taxation of the benefit provided thereunder to Executive or his dependents because such benefits are provided by a self-insured basis by Company, then Executive shall be obligated to pay the full monthly or similar premium for such coverage under COBRA. In such event, Company shall pay Executive, in monthly installments over the eighteen (18) month COBRA period (or the remaining portion thereof) an amount equivalent to the monthly premium for COBRA coverage for the balance of the eighteen (18) month COBRA period (based on the COBRA rates then in effect).

No Severance Payment shall be made if Executive fails to sign a release substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A. Such release must be executed and become effective within the sixty (60) calendar day period following the date of Executive’s “separation from service” within the meaning of Code Section 409A (the last day of such period being the “Release Deadline”). No Severance Payment shall be made if Executive materially violates Section VI hereof, in which case all Severance Payments shall cease, and Company may seek forfeiture of Severance Payments already made.

Company agrees that if, at the time the Term of Employment is terminated not for Cause, or Executive terminates the Term of Employment for Good Reason, and Company has a standard severance policy in effect that would be applicable in the absence of this Agreement (i.e., applicable to the circumstances surrounding the termination) and that would result in Executive receiving a sum greater than the Severance Payment, Executive shall receive whichever is the greater of the two payments; provided, that if (i) the standard severance policy would provide for a sum greater than the Severance Payment, and (ii) the payment schedule under the Severance Policy is different from the payment schedules for the Severance Payment and would result in an impermissible acceleration or delay in payment in violation of the time and manner of payment requirements of Code Section 409A, then the payment schedule provided in Company’s standard severance policy shall apply only to the portion of the amount payable under the standard severance policy that exceeds the Severance Payment. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the Severance Payment exceed twenty-four (24) months of Base Salary Continuation.

If Executive terminates the Term of Employment before it has expired for a reason other than one or more of those stated in Section IV(D)(1) hereof, it shall be deemed a material breach of this Agreement. Executive agrees that, in that event, in addition to any other rights and remedies which Company may have as a result of such breach, he shall forfeit all rights to be compensated for any remaining portion of his Base Salary, Severance Payment and/or bonus/incentive payment that may otherwise be due under this Agreement, pursuant to other Company plans or policies, or otherwise, except for Accrued Benefits or as may be required by law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Executive gives at least six (6) months advance written notice of his intention to terminate the Term of Employment before it has expired for a reason other than one or more of those stated in Section IV(D)(1) hereof, then the sole consequence thereof will be that Executive will forfeit the aforesaid financial entitlements.

Right To Offset. In the event that Executive secures employment or any consulting or contractor or business arrangement for services he performs during the period that any payment from Company is continuing or due under Section IV(D) hereof, Executive shall have the obligation to timely notify Company of the source and amount of payment (“Offset Income”). Company shall have the right to reduce the Severance Payment by the Offset Income. Executive acknowledges and agrees that any non-contingent deferred compensation for his services from another source that are performed while receiving Severance Payments from Company will be treated as Offset Income (regardless of when Executive chooses to receive such compensation). In addition, to the extent that Executive’s compensation arrangement for the services include elements that are required to be paid later in the term of the arrangement (e.g., bonus or other payments that are earned in full or part based on performance or service requirements for the period during which the Severance Payment is made), Company may calculate the Offset Income by annualizing or by using any other reasonable methodology to attribute the later payments to the applicable period of the Severance Payment. Executive agrees to provide Company with information sufficient to determine the calculation of the Offset Income, including compensation excerpts of any employment agreement or other contract for services, Form W-2s, and any other documentation that Company reasonably may require, and that failure to provide timely notice to Company of Offset Income or to respond to inquiries from Company regarding any such Offset Income shall be deemed a material breach of this Agreement. Executive also agrees that Company shall have the right to inquire of third-party individuals and entities regarding potential Offset Income and to inform such parties of Company’s right of offset under this Agreement with Executive.

Accordingly, Executive agrees that no further Severance Payment from Company will be made until or unless this breach is cured and that all payments from Company already made to Executive, during the time he failed to disclose his Offset Income, shall be forfeited and must be returned to Company upon its demand, up to the amount of Offset Income attributable to such period. Any offsets made by Company pursuant to this Section IV(E) shall be made at the same time and in the same amount as a Severance Payment amount is otherwise payable (applying the Offset Income to Company’s payments in the order each are paid) so as not to accelerate or delay the payment of any Severance Payment installment.

Mitigation. In the event of Executive’s termination of employment pursuant to Section IV(D) herein, and during the period that any payment from Company is continuing or due under Section IV(D), Executive shall be under a continuing obligation to seek other employment, including taking all reasonable steps to identify and apply for any comparable, available jobs for which Executive is qualified in the New York Metropolitan area. At Company’s request, Executive may be required to furnish to Company proof that Executive has engaged in efforts consistent with this paragraph, and Executive agrees to comply with any such request. Executive further agrees that Company may follow-up with reasonable inquiries to third parties to confirm Executive’s mitigation efforts. Should Company determine in good faith that Executive failed to take reasonable steps to secure alternative employment consistent with this paragraph, Company shall be entitled to cease any payments due to Executive pursuant to Section IV(D)(2) following notice to Executive with a ten (10) day opportunity to cure.

V.	CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION

Executive acknowledges his fiduciary duty to Company. As a condition of employment, Executive agrees to protect and hold in a fiduciary capacity for the benefit of Company all confidential information, knowledge or data, including the terms of this Agreement and, without limitation, all trade secrets relating to Company and its Affiliates, and their respective businesses, (i) obtained by Executive during his employment by Company or otherwise and (ii) that is not otherwise publicly known (other than by reason of an unauthorized act by Executive). After termination of Executive’s employment with Company, Executive shall not communicate or divulge any such information, knowledge or data to anyone other than Company and those designated by it, without the prior written consent of Company. For the avoidance of doubt, and notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein or in this Agreement shall (x) prohibit Executive from communicating with a government agency, regulator or legal authority concerning any possible violations of federal or state law or regulation, or (y) prevent or limit Executive from discussing his terms and conditions of

employment. Nothing herein or in this Agreement, however, authorizes the disclosure of information Executive obtained through a communication that was subject to the attorney-client privilege, unless disclosure of the information would otherwise be permitted by an applicable law or rule. As a condition of employment, Executive is required to sign a Confidential Information and Assignment of Inventions Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit B and incorporated herein by reference.

In the event that Executive is compelled, pursuant to a subpoena or other order of a court or other body having jurisdiction over such matter, to produce any information relevant to Company, whether confidential or not, Executive agrees to provide Company with such written notice of this subpoena or order so that Company may timely move to quash if appropriate unless such notice to Company is prohibited by law or procedure.

Executive also agrees to cooperate with Company in any legal action for which his participation is needed. Company agrees to try to schedule all such meetings so that they do not unduly interfere with Executive’s pursuits after he is no longer in Company’s employ.

VI.

RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS

Executive covenants that during the Term of Employment and, for a period of twelve (12) months after the conclusion thereof (the “Restricted Period”), he shall not, directly or indirectly, on his own behalf or on behalf of any entity or individual, engage in any business activities involving nonfiction, scripted, sports, lifestyle, news, interactive games, or general entertainment television (whether in cable, broadcast, free to air, digital, streaming, film, or any other distribution method) within the Restricted Territory (“Competitive Services”). The Restricted Territory is the United States and any other country for which Executive had management responsibilities (e.g., supervised employees located in that country or was involved in business or programming operations in that country) at any time during the three (3) years prior to Executive’s separation from employment. This provision shall not prevent Executive from owning stock in any publicly-traded company; provided, that, Executive’s ownership is equal to or less than three (3) percent of such entity’s outstanding stock. Executive agrees that this Section VI (A) is a material part of this Agreement, breach of which will cause Company irreparable harm and damages, the loss of which cannot be adequately compensated at law. In the event that the provisions of this paragraph should ever be deemed to exceed the limitations permitted by applicable laws, Executive and Company agree that such provisions shall be reformed to the maximum limitations permitted by the applicable laws.

If Executive wishes to pursue Competitive Services during the Restricted Period and to obtain the written consent of Company before doing so, Executive may request consent from Company by providing written evidence, including assurances from Executive and his potential employer, that the fulfillment of Executive’s duties in such proposed work or activity would not involve any use, disclosure, or reliance upon the confidential information or trade secrets of Company, and Company shall consider the request promptly and in good faith. In the event that Executive wishes to consider an opportunity outside Company at the end of the natural expiration of the Term of Employment, Executive may request that the Company review the opportunity and Company shall consider any such request promptly and in good faith.

During Executive’s employment and for a period of eighteen (18) months following the conclusion of Executive’s employment with Company, Executive covenants that he will not directly or indirectly solicit, recruit, interfere with or otherwise attempt to entice, any employees of Company or any of its Affiliates to leave their employment with Company or such Affiliate.

During Executive’s employment and for an eighteen (18) month period following the conclusion of Executive’s employment with Company, Executive covenants that he will not directly or indirectly solicit, recruit, interfere with or otherwise attempt to entice, solicit, induce or encourage any vendor, producer, independent contractor, or business partner to terminate its business relationship with Company or its Affiliates.

During the period Executive is employed by Company, Executive covenants and agrees not to engage in any other business activities whatsoever, or to directly or indirectly render services of a business, commercial or professional in nature to any other business entity or organization, regardless of whether Executive is compensated for these services, unless Executive obtains the prior written consent of the Chief Executive Officer of Company.

Throughout the period that Executive is an employee of Company, Executive agrees to disclose to Company any direct investments (i.e., any investment in which Executive has made the decision to invest in a particular company) he has in a company that is a competitor of Company or its Affiliates (“Competitor”) or that Company or its Affiliates is doing business with during the Term of Employment (“Partner”), if such direct investments result in Executive or Executive’s immediate family members, and/or a trust established by Executive or Executive’s immediate family members, owning three (3) percent or more of such a Competitor or Partner. This Section VI(F) shall not prohibit Executive, however, from

making passive investments (i.e., where Executive does not make the decision to invest in a particular mutual fund or similar entity, even if such entity, in turn, invests in such a Competitor or Partner). Regardless of the nature of Executive’s investments, Executive herein agrees that his investments may not materially interfere with Executive’s obligations and ability to provide services under this Agreement.

If Company makes a Qualifying Renewal Offer, Executive declines such offer, and Executive terminates employment at the end of the Term of Employment, Executive shall be eligible for a Noncompetition Payment (as defined below) Provided that Executive signs a release in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, and such release is executed and becomes effective on or before the Release Deadline, then, on the Release Deadline, Company will commence to pay Executive an amount equal to 50% of Executive’s Base Salary for the Restricted Period and Executive also shall receive a prorated portion of Executive’s annual bonus Target for the calendar year in which the Term of Employment ends based on the amount of time Executive was employed during that calendar year (and subject to achievement of any applicable performance metrics), payable at the time annual bonuses are ordinarily paid to Senior Executives, but in no event shall it be paid later than March 15th of the year following the calendar year in which the Term of Employment ends (the “Noncompetition Payment”). The Base Salary component of the Noncompetition Payment shall be paid in substantially equal increments on regular Company paydays (less required deductions and withholdings), except that the first installment payment shall also provide any installments that would have been payable between the date of termination and the Release Deadline had the release requirement under Section (IV)(D)(3) been satisfied on the date of termination (less required deductions and withholdings), until the balance is paid in full, provided that Executive complies with the provisions of this Section VI. For the avoidance of doubt, the Noncompetition Payment is intended to be paid in circumstances in which Executive is not eligible for the Severance Payment.

Prior to the conclusion of Executive’s employment with Company, Executive shall return all Company property and materials, including equipment, such as laptop computers and mobile telephones, and documentation, such as files (including originals and copies), notes, e- mail accounts and computer disks.

In the event that Executive violates any provision of this Section VI, in addition to any injunctive relief and damages to which Executive acknowledges Company would be entitled, all Severance Payments or Noncompetition Payment to Executive, if any, shall cease, and Company may seek forfeiture of Severance Payments or Noncompetition Payments already made.

Nothing in this Section VI will restrict Executive from the right to practice law (including in an in-house legal role) following the termination of his employment with Company.

VII.

ARBITRATION

Submission To Arbitration. Company and Executive agree to submit to arbitration all claims, disputes, issues or controversies between Company and Executive or between Executive and other employees of Company or its Affiliates (collectively “Claims”) directly or indirectly relating to or arising out of Executive’s employment with Company or the termination of such employment including Claims under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended, the Civil Rights Act of 1991, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, the Americans With Disabilities Act of 1990, Section 1981 of the Civil Rights Act of 1966, as amended, the Family Medical Leave Act, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act, and any Claim arising under any similar federal, state or local law, statute, regulation or common law doctrine or out of this Agreement.

VIII.

CONTROLLING LAW AND ADDITIONAL COVENANTS

The validity and construction of this Agreement or any of its provisions shall be determined under the laws of the State of New York. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect or limit the validity and enforceability of the other provisions.

If any provision of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall nevertheless continue in full force and effect without being impaired or invalidated. The section headings of this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not in any way affect the interpretation of any section hereof or of the Agreement itself. Any provision of this Agreement which refers to the words “include,” “includes,” or “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.”

Executive warrants that (1) his employment under this Agreement will not violate or conflict in any way with any other contract or agreement to which Executive is bound; (2) Executive will do nothing on behalf of Company that violates or conflicts with any such contract or agreement; and (3) Executive will indemnify Company for any liability, damages, costs, or attorneys’ fees that Company suffers as a result of any such violation or conflict.

Executive expressly acknowledges that Company has advised Executive to consult with independent legal counsel of his choosing prior to Executive’s signing this Agreement to review and explain to Executive the legal effect of the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

Without limiting anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Executive agrees not to disclose the terms hereof to any person or entity, other than Executive’s attorneys, accountants, financial advisors, or members of Executive’s immediate family who need to know this information and agree to keep it confidential.

This Agreement supersedes any and all other agreements, either oral or in writing, between the parties with respect to the employment of Executive by Company, and contains all of the covenants and agreements between the parties with respect to such employment in any manner whatsoever. Each party to this Agreement acknowledges that no representations, inducements, promises or agreements have been made, orally or otherwise, by any party, or anyone acting on behalf of any party, that are not stated in this Agreement, and that no other agreement, statement or promise not contained in this Agreement shall be valid or binding. Notwithstanding either of the foregoing sentences, or any other provision of this Agreement, this Agreement shall not supersede, replace, invalidate

or otherwise modify or affect any restrictive covenants in any previous, subsequent or other agreements or documents between Executive and Company, including, without limitation, any covenants regarding confidentiality, intellectual property, confidential and proprietary information, non-competition, non-solicitation of customers, non-solicitation or no hire of employees, and the like (collectively, “Other Restrictive Covenants”), and any such Other Restrictive Covenants will remain in effect and Executive shall remain bound by such Other Restrictive Covenants. To the extent any of the restrictions or covenants contained in this Agreement conflict in any way with any such Other Restrictive Covenants, such conflict shall be resolved by giving effect to the provision that provides the greatest protection to Company that is enforceable under applicable law.

Any modifications to this Agreement shall be effective only if in writing and signed by both parties.

Any payments to be made by Company hereunder shall be made subject to applicable law, including required deductions and withholdings.

Section 409A of the Code.

It is intended that the provisions of this Agreement comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, (the “Code”) and the regulations and guidance promulgated thereunder (collectively, “Code Section 409A”), and all provisions of this Agreement shall be construed in a manner consistent with the requirements for avoiding taxes or penalties under Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Company shall have no liability to Executive with regard to any failure to comply with Code Section 409A so long as Company has acted in good faith with regard to compliance therewith.

If under this Agreement, an amount is to be paid in two or more installments, for purposes of Code Section 409A, each installment shall be treated as a separate payment.

A termination of employment shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of any provision of this Agreement providing for the payment of amounts or benefits upon or following a termination of employment unless such termination is also a “Separation from Service” within the meaning of Code Section 409A and, for purposes of any such provision of this Agreement, references to a “resignation,” “termination,” “termination of employment,” “separation” or like terms shall mean Separation from Service.

If Executive is deemed on the date of termination of his employment to be a “specified employee”, within the meaning of that term under Section 409A(a)(2)(B) of the Code and using the identification methodology selected by Company from time to time, or if none, the default methodology, then:

With regard to any payment, the providing of any benefit or any distribution of equity upon separation from service that constitutes “deferred compensation” subject to Code Section 409A, such payment, benefit or distribution shall not be made or provided prior to the earlier of (i) the expiration of the six- month period measured from the date of Executive’s Separation from Service or (ii) the date of Executive’s death; and

On the first day of the seventh month following the date of Executive’s Separation from Service or, if earlier, on the date of his death, (x) all payments delayed pursuant to this Section VIII(I)(4) (whether they would otherwise have been payable in a single sum or in installments in the absence of such delay) shall be paid or reimbursed to Executive in a lump sum, and any remaining payments and benefits due under this Agreement shall be paid or provided in accordance with the normal dates specified from them herein and (y) all distributions of equity delayed pursuant to this Section VIII(I)(4) shall be made to Executive.

With regard to any provision herein that provides for reimbursement of costs and expenses or in-kind benefits, except as permitted by Code Section 409A, (i) the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit, (ii) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, of in-kind benefits, provided during any taxable year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, in any other taxable year, provided that the foregoing clause (ii) shall not be violated without regard to expenses reimbursed under any arrangement covered by Section 105(b) of the Code solely because such expenses are subject to a limit related to the period the arrangement is in effect and (iii) such payments shall be made on or before the last day of Executive’s taxable year following the taxable year in which the expense occurred.

Whenever a payment under this Agreement specifies a payment period with reference to a number of days (e.g., “payment shall be made within thirty (30) days following the date of termination), the actual date of payment within the specified period shall be within the sole discretion of Company.

This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors, heirs (in the case of Executive) and assigns. The rights or obligations under this Agreement may not be assigned or transferred by either party, except that such rights or obligations may be assigned or transferred pursuant to a merger or consolidation in which Company is not the continuing entity, or the sale or liquidation of all or substantially all of the assets of Company; provided, however, that the assignee or transferee is the successor to all or substantially all of the assets of Company and such assignee or transferee assumes the liabilities, obligations and duties of Company, as contained in this Agreement, either contractually or as a matter of law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be assigned to any Affiliate of Company which employs Executive.

This Agreement may be executed with electronic signatures, in any number of counterparts. The electronically signed Agreement shall constitute one original agreement.

AGREEMENT AND GENERAL RELEASE

This Agreement and General Release (“Release”) is entered into by and between Discovery Communications, LLC (“Company”), and Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx (“Executive”) to resolve any and all disputes concerning his employment with Company and his separation from employment on (the “Effective Date”). Accordingly, in exchange for the consideration and mutual promises set forth herein, the parties do hereby agree as follows:

1. Effective close of business on the Effective Date, Executive’s employment with Company will terminate, and all salary continuation and benefits will cease other than those to which Executive is entitled in consideration for this Release as set forth in Executive’s Employment Agreement with Company (“Agreement”), which is incorporated by reference, and/or as a matter of law (e.g., COBRA benefits).

2. In consideration for Executive’s executing this Release of any and all legal claims he might have against the Discovery Parties (as defined below), and the undertakings described herein, and to facilitate his transition to other employment, Company agrees to provide Executive with the consideration detailed in, as applicable, Section IV(D) or Section VI(G) (i.e., the “Severance Payment”), of the Agreement.

3. Neither Company nor Executive admits any wrongdoing of any kind, and Executive agrees that neither Executive nor anyone acting on his behalf will disclose this Release, or its terms and conditions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive is not barred from disclosing this Release to his legal, financial and personal advisors or to those persons essential for Executive to (a) implement or enforce his rights under this Release and the Agreement pursuant to which this Release is given; (b) defend himself in a lawsuit, investigation or administrative proceeding; (c) file tax returns; or (d) advise a prospective employer, business partner or insurer of the contractual restrictions on his post-Company employment.

4. In exchange for the undertakings by Company described in the above paragraphs:

a. Executive, for himself, his heirs, executors, administrators and assigns, does hereby release, acquit and forever discharge Company and its Affiliates (as defined in the Agreement), as well as all of their respective officers, shareholders, shareholder representatives, directors, members, partners, trustees, employees, attorneys, representatives and agents in their respective capacities as such (collectively, the “Discovery Parties”), from any and all claims, demands, actions, causes of action, liabilities, obligations, covenants, contracts, promises, agreements, controversies, costs, expenses, debts, dues, or attorneys’ fees of every name and nature, whether known or unknown, without limitation, at law, in equity or administrative, against the Discovery Parties that he may have had, now has or may have against the Discovery Parties by reason of any matter or thing arising from the beginning of the world to the day and date of this Release relating to his employment with any Discovery Party or the termination thereof. Those claims, demands, liabilities and obligations from which Executive

releases the Discovery Parties include any claim, demand or action, known or unknown, arising out of any transaction, act or omission related to Executive’s employment by any Discovery Party and Executive’s separation from such employment, sounding in tort or contract and/or any cause of action arising under federal, state or local statute or ordinance or common law, including the federal Age Discrimination In Employment Act of 1967 (“ADEA”), Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended, the Americans With Disabilities Act, the Family and Medical Leave Act, the Equal Pay Act, the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act and the New York Human Rights Law, as well as any similar state or local statute(s), in each case as any such law may be amended from time to time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained herein shall release Company from (1) the obligations set forth in this Release, (2) claims for vested benefits under any benefit plan, including without limitation the Stock Plan, (3) any claim that arises after the date Executive signs this Release, (4) Executive’s right to indemnification under applicable insurance policies, the Company’s by-laws and as set forth in the Agreement, or (5) any claim that cannot by law be released, including claims for unemployment insurance benefits and workers’ compensation benefits.

b. Nothing in this Release, including its general release and non-disparagement or confidentiality provisions, shall be construed to (1) waive Executive’s right to testify in an administrative, legislative, or judicial proceeding concerning alleged sexual harassment or other unlawful conduct on the part of Company, or on the part of the agents or employees of Company, when Executive has been required or requested to attend such a proceeding pursuant to court order, subpoena, or written request from an administrative agency, legislature or other governmental authority (any such order, subpoena or request, an “Authority”); (2) prevent Executive from filing a charge or complaint with or from participating in an investigation or proceeding conducted by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the National Labor Relations Board (“NLRB”), the Securities and Exchange Commission, or any other federal, state, or local agency charged with the enforcement of any laws, including providing documents or other information (through otherwise lawful means); (3) prevent Executive from exercising Executive’s rights under Section 7 of the National Labor Relations Act to engage in protected, concerted activity with other employees, although by signing this Release Executive is waiving Executive’s right to recover any individual relief (including any backpay, frontpay, reinstatement, or other legal or equitable relief) in any charge, complaint, lawsuit, or other proceeding brought by Executive or on Executive’s behalf by any third party, except for any right Executive may have to receive an award from an Authority (and not Company) for information provided to an Authority; or (4) if Executive is age forty (40) or over, limits or affects Executive’s right to challenge the validity of this Release under the ADEA or the Older Worker Benefits Protection Act.

c. Executive expressly acknowledges that his attorney has advised him regarding, and he is familiar with, the fact that certain state statutes provide that general releases do not extend to claims that the releasor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time he executes such a release, which if known to him may have materially affected his execution of the release. Being aware of such statutes, Executive hereby expressly waives and relinquishes any rights or benefits he may have under such statutes, as well as any other state or federal statutes or common law principles of similar effect, and hereby acknowledges that no claim or cause of action against any Discovery Party shall be deemed to be outside the scope of

this Release whether mentioned herein or not. Executive also specifically knowingly waives the provisions of Section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State of California, which reads: A general release does not extend to claims that the creditor or releasing party does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release and that, if known by him or her, would have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor or released party. Notwithstanding the provisions of Civil Code Section 1542 stated above and for the purpose of implementing a full and complete release and discharge of the Discovery Parties, Executive expressly acknowledges that this Release is specifically intended to include in its effect all claims that he does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time he signs this Release.

d. Executive hereby acknowledges that he is executing this Release pursuant to the Agreement, and that the consideration to be provided to Executive pursuant to Section IV(D) of the Agreement is in addition to what he would have been entitled to receive in the absence of this Release. Executive hereby acknowledges that he is executing this Release voluntarily and with full knowledge of all relevant information and any and all rights he may have. Executive hereby acknowledges that he has been hereby advised through this Release to consult with an independent attorney of his own choosing in connection with this Release to explain to him the legal effect of the terms and conditions of this Release and that Executive has consulted such an attorney for such purpose. Executive acknowledges that he has read this Release in its entirety. Executive further states that he fully understands the terms of this Release and that the only promises made to him in return for signing this Release are stated herein and in the Agreement pursuant to which this Release is given. Executive hereby acknowledges that he is voluntarily and knowingly agreeing to the terms and conditions of this Release without any threats, coercion or duress, whether economic or otherwise, and that Executive agrees to be bound by the terms of this Release. Executive acknowledges that he has been given twenty-one (21) days to consider, sign, and return this Release to Company’s designated representative, and that if Executive is age forty (40) or over, Executive understands that he has seven (7) days following his execution of this Release in which to revoke his agreement to comply with this Release by providing written notice of revocation to the General Counsel of Company no later than three business days following such period.

e. Executive further hereby covenants and agrees that this Release shall be binding in all respects upon himself, his heirs, executors, administrators, assigns and transferees and all persons claiming under them, and shall inure to the benefit of all of the officers, directors, agents, employees, stockholders, members and partners and successors in interest of Company, as well as all Affiliates and representatives of any of the foregoing persons and entities.

f. Except as permitted by applicable laws and the terms of the Agreement and this Release, Executive agrees that he will not disparage any Discovery Party or make or publish any communication that reflects adversely upon any of them, including communications concerning Company itself and its current or former directors, officers, employees or agents. In the event of a termination of the “Term of Employment” other than a termination by Company for “Cause” (as those two terms are defined in the Agreement) under the Agreement, Executive and Company shall confer about a mutually agreeable announcement of Executive’s separation from Company.

g. Executive agrees to return all Company property and materials, including equipment, such as laptop computers and mobile telephones, and documentation, such as files (including all originals and copies), notes, e-mail accounts and computer disks prior to the conclusion of Executive’s employment with Company.

5. a. If any provision of this Release is found to be invalid, unenforceable or void for any reason, such provision shall be severed from the Release and shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions.

b. Any provision of this Release which refers to the words “include,” “includes,” or “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.”

c. Company and Executive agree that this Release, consisting of four (4) pages, and the Agreement pursuant to which this Release is given, constitutes the entire agreement between them with respect to the subject matter hereof. Each party further warrants that he, she or it enters into this Release freely.

d. This Release shall be interpreted, enforced and governed by the laws of the State of New York without regard to the choice of law principles thereof.
