DESCRIPTION OF NOTES

General

DCL will issue each series of the New Notes as a separate series of debt securities. Each series of the Old Notes were, and each series of the New Notes will be, issued under the senior indenture, dated as of August 19, 2009 (the “Base Indenture”), among DCL, Discovery, and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as supplemented as supplemented by the fifteenth supplemental indenture, dated as of April 3, 2018, among DCL, Discovery, the Trustee, and Scripps, as subsidiary guarantor (the “fifteenth supplemental indenture”). We refer to the Base Indenture, together with the fifteenth supplemental indenture, as the “indenture.” The terms of the New Notes will be substantially identical to the terms of the Old Notes except that the New Notes will be registered under the Securities Act and will not contain restrictions on transfer or provisions relating to additional interest, will bear different CUSIP numbers and ISINs from the Old Notes, and will not entitle their holders to registration rights. New Notes will otherwise be treated as Old Notes for purposes of the indenture.

Because this is a summary, it does not contain all the information that may be important to you. The following description of specific terms of the New Notes of each series is qualified in its entirety by reference to the provisions of the indenture, including the definitions of certain terms contained therein and those terms made part of the indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “Trust Indenture Act”). Capitalized and other terms not otherwise defined in this prospectus have the meanings given to them in the indenture. As used in this “Description of Notes,” “we,” “our,” “us,” and “DCL” refer to Discovery Communications, LLC, and the “Guarantor” refers to Discovery, Inc. Such terms do not, unless the context otherwise indicates, include the subsidiaries of such entities. The terms of each series of New Notes include those stated in the indenture and those which are made a part of the indenture by the Trust Indenture Act. A copy of the indenture is available for inspection at the office of the Trustee.

The Notes will be issued only in registered form, without coupons, in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The registered holder of a New Note will be treated as the owner of the New Note for all purposes. Only registered holders will have rights under the indenture.

Ranking

The Notes are DCL’s unsecured senior obligations and rank equally in right of payment with DCL’s existing and future unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness. The Notes are effectively subordinated to DCL’s secured indebtedness (if any) to the extent of the value of the assets securing that debt and effectively subordinated to any indebtedness and other liabilities of DCL’s subsidiaries to the extent such subsidiaries do not guarantee the Notes. The Notes will be senior in right of payment to all future subordinated indebtedness of DCL.

As of December 31, 2018:

Guarantees

Guarantee by the Guarantor

All payments on the Notes, including principal and interest (and premium, if any), are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on an unsecured and unsubordinated basis by the Guarantor.

The guarantee by the Guarantor of the Notes rank equally in right of payment with all other existing and future unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness of the Guarantor. The guarantee is effectively subordinated to the

34

Guarantor’s secured indebtedness (if any) to the extent of the value of the assets securing that debt and effectively subordinated to any indebtedness and other liabilities of the Guarantor’s subsidiaries to the extent such subsidiaries do not guarantee the Notes.

As of December 31, 2018, the Guarantor’s outstanding indebtedness consisted of its guarantees of $16.7 billion aggregate principal amount of DCL’s senior notes, including the Notes, $225 million of borrowings under DCL’s revolving credit facility, and $252 million of capital leases.

Guarantee by Subsidiaries of the Guarantor

The indenture provides that the Guarantor will cause each wholly-owned Domestic Subsidiary that guarantees payment of any Debt of DCL or the Guarantor under DCL’s Revolving Credit Facility, to execute and deliver to the Trustee within 30 days a supplemental indenture, in form and substance required by the indenture or other instrument pursuant to which such wholly-owned Domestic Subsidiary will guarantee payment of the Notes, whereupon such Domestic Subsidiary will become a Subsidiary Guarantor for all purposes under the applicable supplemental indenture. Subsidiary guarantees will be subject to release and discharge under certain circumstances prior to payment in full of the Notes. Scripps is a Subsidiary Guarantor under the indenture.

“Domestic Subsidiary” means any Guarantor Subsidiary that is organized under the laws of any political subdivision of the United States that is not a Foreign Subsidiary.

“Foreign Subsidiary” means any Guarantor Subsidiary that is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction other than the United States, a State thereof or the District of Columbia or that is a Foreign Subsidiary Holdco. For the avoidance of doubt, any Guarantor Subsidiary that is organized and existing under the laws of Puerto Rico or any other territory of the United States of America shall be a Foreign Subsidiary.

“Foreign Subsidiary Holdco” means any Guarantor Subsidiary designated as a Foreign Subsidiary Holdco by DCL, so long as such Subsidiary has no material assets other than securities, indebtedness or receivables of one or more Foreign Subsidiaries (or Guarantor Subsidiaries thereof), intellectual property relating solely to such Foreign Subsidiaries (or Guarantor Subsidiaries thereof) and/or other assets (including cash and cash equivalents) relating to an ownership interest in any such securities, indebtedness, intellectual property or Guarantor Subsidiaries.

“Guarantor Subsidiary” means a corporation or other business entity of which equity interests having a majority of the voting power under ordinary circumstances is owned, directly or indirectly, by the Guarantor or by one of more subsidiaries of the Guarantor, or by the Guarantor and one or more subsidiaries of the Guarantor.

“Revolving Credit Facility” means the revolving credit facility created pursuant to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of February 4, 2016, among DCL, the Guarantor, certain subsidiaries of DCL, the lenders from time to time parties thereto and Bank of America, N.A. as administrative agent, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of August 11, 2017, as further amended, restated, supplemented, replaced, waived or otherwise modified from time to time.

“Subsidiary Guarantor” means any Guarantor Subsidiary that enters into a subsidiary guarantee, in each case, unless and until such Guarantor Subsidiary is released from such subsidiary guarantee in accordance with the terms of the indenture.

All payments on the Notes, including principal and interest (and premium, if any), will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed on an unsecured and unsubordinated basis by each Subsidiary Guarantor.

The guarantee by each Subsidiary Guarantor of the Notes will rank equally in right of payment with all other existing and future unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness of such Subsidiary Guarantor. The guarantee will be effectively subordinated to the applicable Subsidiary Guarantor’s secured indebtedness (if any) to the extent of the value of the assets securing that debt and effectively subordinated to any indebtedness and other liabilities of the Subsidiary Guarantor’s subsidiaries to the extent such subsidiaries do not guarantee the Notes.

35

The indenture provides that the obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor are limited to the maximum amount, as will, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Subsidiary Guarantor and after giving effect to any collections from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Subsidiary Guarantor under its subsidiary guarantee or pursuant to its contribution obligations under the indenture, result in the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under the subsidiary guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under applicable law, or being void or unenforceable under any law relating to insolvency of debtors.

Each such subsidiary guarantee will be a continuing guarantee and shall (i) remain in full force and effect until payment in full of the principal amount of all outstanding Notes (whether by payment at maturity, purchase, redemption, defeasance, retirement or other acquisition) and all other subsidiary guaranteed obligations of the relevant Subsidiary Guarantor then due and owing, unless earlier terminated as described below, (ii) be binding upon such Subsidiary Guarantor and (iii) inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Trustee, the holders and their permitted successors, transferees and assigns.

Notwithstanding the preceding paragraph, any Subsidiary Guarantor will automatically and unconditionally be released from all obligations under its subsidiary guarantee, and such subsidiary guarantee shall thereupon terminate and be discharged and of no further force or effect, (i) concurrently with any direct or indirect sale or disposition (by merger or otherwise) of any Subsidiary Guarantor or any interest therein, or any other transaction, in accordance with the terms of the indenture, (ii) at any time that such Subsidiary Guarantor is (or, substantially concurrently with the release of the subsidiary guarantee of such Subsidiary Guarantor or if as a result of the release of the subsidiary guarantee of such Subsidiary Guarantor, will be) released from all of its obligations under its guarantee of payment by DCL of any Debt of DCL or the Guarantor under our Revolving Credit Facility (it being understood that a release subject to contingent reinstatement is still a release, and that if any such guarantee is so reinstated, such subsidiary guarantee shall also be reinstated to the extent that such Subsidiary Guarantor would then be required to provide a subsidiary guarantee pursuant to this section), (iii) upon the merger or consolidation of any Subsidiary Guarantor with and into DCL or the Guarantor or another Subsidiary Guarantor that is the surviving person in such merger or consolidation, or upon the liquidation of such Subsidiary Guarantor following the transfer of all of its assets to DCL or the Guarantor or another Subsidiary Guarantor, (iv) concurrently with any Subsidiary Guarantor ceasing to constitute a Domestic Subsidiary of the Guarantor, (v) upon legal or covenant defeasance of DCL’s obligations, or satisfaction and discharge of the Notes, or (vi) subject to customary contingent reinstatement provisions, upon payment in full of the aggregate principal amount of all of the Notes then outstanding and all other subsidiary guaranteed obligations then due and owing. Upon any such occurrence specified in this paragraph, the Trustee shall execute any documents reasonably requested by DCL in order to evidence such release, discharge and termination in respect of such subsidiary guarantee.

Further Issues

We may from time to time, without notice to, or the consent of, the registered holders of the Notes, create and issue additional Notes of any series offered hereby ranking equally and ratably with the Notes of a series in all respects (or in all respects except for the payment of interest accruing prior to the issue date of such additional Notes or except for the first payment of interest following the issue date of such additional Notes), so that such additional Notes will be consolidated and form a single series with the Notes of such series and will have the same terms as to status, redemption or otherwise as the Notes of such series, provided that if such additional Notes are not fungible with the Notes of such series for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such additional Notes will have a separate CUSIP number.

Optional Redemption

Prior to the applicable Par Call Date, each series of Notes will be redeemable in whole or in part, at the option of DCL at any time and from time to time at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal

36

amount of the series of Notes to be redeemed, and (ii) as determined by the Quotation Agent (as defined below), the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the series of Notes to be redeemed (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued as of the date of redemption) assuming that such series of Notes matured on the applicable Par Call Date discounted to the date of redemption on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Adjusted Treasury Rate (as defined below) plus 20 basis points in the case of the 2019 Senior Notes, 20 basis points in the case of the 2020 Senior Notes, 25 basis points in the case of the 2022 Senior Notes, 25 basis points in the case of the 2024 Senior Notes and 30 basis points in the case of the 2025 Senior Notes, plus in each case accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount being redeemed to the date of redemption.

On and after the applicable Par Call Date, each series of Notes will be redeemable at DCL’s option, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the series of Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the principal being redeemed to the date of redemption.

“Adjusted Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any redemption date, the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such redemption date.

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security selected by the Quotation Agent as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Notes of a series to be redeemed (assuming that such Notes matured on the applicable Par Call Date) that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of such Notes.

“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any redemption date, (i) the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such redemption date, after excluding the highest and lowest such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (ii) if the Trustee obtains fewer than four such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such quotations.

“Par Call Date” means October 15, 2019 with respect to the 2019 Senior Notes, May 15, 2020 with respect to the 2020 Senior Notes, April 15, 2022 with respect to the 2022 Senior Notes, August 15, 2024 with respect to the 2024 Senior Notes and March 15, 2025 with respect to the 2025 Senior Notes.

“Quotation Agent” means the Reference Treasury Dealer appointed by DCL.

“Reference Treasury Dealer” means Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, and two other primary U.S. Government securities dealers in New York City (each, a “Primary Treasury Dealer”) with respect to the Notes; provided, however, that if any of the foregoing ceases to be a Primary Treasury Dealer, (i) DCL will substitute therefor another Primary Treasury Dealer; and (ii) any other Primary Treasury Dealers selected by DCL.

“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any redemption date, the average, as determined by the Trustee, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Trustee by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third business day preceding such redemption date.

On and after the Par Call Date, the Notes will be redeemable at DCL’s option, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued interest on the principal amount being redeemed to the date of redemption.

Notice of any redemption will be mailed at least 15 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each holder of Notes of the series to be redeemed. Unless DCL defaults in payment of the redemption price, on and after the redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on the series of Notes or portions thereof called for redemption.

37

If less than all of the Notes of a series are to be redeemed, the Notes of such series shall be selected by the Trustee by such method the Trustee deems to be fair and appropriate in accordance with applicable depositary procedures.

Change of Control Offer to Repurchase

If a Change of Control Triggering Event occurs, unless we have exercised our right to redeem a series of Notes in full, as described under “Optional Redemption,” holders of Notes of any series included herein will have the right to require us to repurchase all or a portion of such holder’s Notes pursuant to the offer described below (the “Change of Control Offer”), at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase, subject to the rights of holders of Notes of such series on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date.

Within 30 days following the date upon which the Change of Control Triggering Event occurred, or at our option, prior to any Change of Control but after the public announcement of the pending Change of Control, we will be required to send, by first-class mail, a notice to holders of Notes of any series not redeemed, with a copy to the Trustee, which notice will govern the terms of the Change of Control Offer. Such notice will state, among other things, the repurchase date, which must be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed, other than as may be required by law (the “Change of Control Payment Date”). The notice, if mailed prior to the date of consummation of the Change of Control, may state that the Change of Control Offer is conditioned on the Change of Control being consummated on or prior to the Change of Control Payment Date. Holders of Notes of any series not redeemed electing to have their Notes repurchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer will be required to surrender their Notes, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of the Note completed, to the paying agent at the address specified in the notice, or transfer their Notes to the paying agent by book-entry transfer pursuant to the applicable procedures of the paying agent, prior to the close of business on the third business day prior to the Change of Control Payment Date.

We will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer if a third party makes such an offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements for such an offer made by us and such third party purchases all Notes of a series properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer.

We will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control Triggering Event. To the extent that the provisions of any such securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control Offer provisions of the Notes of a series, we will comply with those securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached our obligations under the Change of Control Offer provisions of the Notes by virtue of any such conflict.

The definition of “Change of Control” includes a phrase relating to the direct or indirect sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of “all or substantially all” of the assets of the Guarantor and its subsidiaries, or DCL and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole. Although there is a limited body of case law interpreting the phrase “substantially all,” there is no precise, established definition of the phrase under applicable law. Accordingly, the ability of a holder of Notes of any series offered hereby to require us to repurchase such Notes as a result of a sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of less than all of the assets of the Guarantor and its subsidiaries, or DCL and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to another “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) may be uncertain.

For purposes of the Change of Control Offer discussion above, the following definitions are applicable:

“Below Investment Grade Rating Event” with respect to the Notes of a series means that such series becomes rated below Investment Grade by each Rating Agency on any date from the date of the public notice by the

38

Guarantor or DCL of an arrangement that results in a Change of Control until the end of the 60-day period following public notice by the Guarantor or DCL of the occurrence of a Change of Control (which period will be extended so long as the rating of such series of Notes is under publicly announced consideration for possible downgrade by any of the Rating Agencies); provided, however, that a Below Investment Grade Rating Event otherwise arising by virtue of a particular reduction in rating will not be deemed to have occurred in respect of a particular Change of Control (and thus will not be deemed a Below Investment Grade Rating Event for purposes of the definition of Change of Control Triggering Event), if the Rating Agencies making the reduction in rating to which this definition would otherwise apply do not announce or publicly confirm or inform the Trustee in writing at its request that the reduction was the result, in whole or in part, of any event or circumstance comprised of or arising as a result of, or in respect of, the applicable Change of Control (whether or not the applicable Change of Control has occurred at the time of the Below Investment Grade Rating Event).

“Change of Control” means the occurrence of any one of the following:

(1) the direct or indirect sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition (other than by way of merger or consolidation), in one or a series of related transactions, of all or substantially all of the assets of the Guarantor and its subsidiaries, or DCL and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to any “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) other than to the Guarantor or one of its subsidiaries;

(2) the consummation of any transaction (including without limitation, any merger or consolidation) the result of which is that any “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), other than any Significant Shareholder or any combination of Significant Shareholders, becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the outstanding Voting Stock of the Guarantor or DCL, measured by voting power rather than number of shares;

(3) the consummation of a so-called “going private/Rule 13e-3 Transaction” that results in any of the effects described in paragraph (a)(3)(ii) of Rule 13e-3 under the Exchange Act (or any successor provision) with respect to each class of the Guarantor’s common stock, following which any Significant Shareholder or any combination of Significant Shareholders “beneficially own” (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the outstanding Voting Stock of the Guarantor, measured by voting power rather than number of shares;

(4) the first day on which the majority of the members of the board of directors of the Guarantor cease to be Continuing Directors; or

(5) the adoption of a plan relating to the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Guarantor.

“Change of Control Triggering Event” means the occurrence of both a Change of Control and a Below Investment Grade Rating Event. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Change of Control Triggering Event will be deemed to have occurred in connection with any particular Change of Control unless and until such Change of Control has actually been consummated.

“Continuing Director” means, as of any date of determination, any member of the board of directors (or equivalent body) of the Guarantor who:

(1) was a member of such board of directors on the date of the issuance of the Old Notes; or

(2) was nominated for election, elected or appointed to such board of directors with the approval of a majority of the Continuing Directors who were members of such board of directors at the time of such nomination, election or appointment (either by a specific vote or by approval of our proxy statement in which such member was named as a nominee for election as a director).

“DCL” means Discovery Communications, LLC and any successor thereto permitted under the indenture.

“Fitch” means Fitch Ratings Ltd., and its successors.

39

“Guarantor” means Discovery, Inc. and any successor thereto permitted under the indenture.

“Investment Grade” means a rating of BBB- or better by S&P (or its equivalent under any successor rating category of S&P), a rating of Baa3 or better by Moody’s (or its equivalent under any successor rating category of Moody’s) and a rating of BBB- or better by Fitch (or its equivalent under any successor rating category of Fitch).

“Moody’s” means Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., and its successors.

“Rating Agency” means (1) each of S&P, Moody’s and Fitch; and (2) if any of S&P, Moody’s or Fitch ceases to rate the Notes or fails to make a rating of the Notes publicly available for reasons outside of DCL’s control, a “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” as defined in Section 3(a)(62) of the Exchange Act, selected by us (as certified by a resolution of the board of directors of the Guarantor and reasonably acceptable to the Trustee) as a replacement agency for S&P, Moody’s or Fitch, or all of them, as the case may be.

“S&P” means Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., and its successors.

“Significant Shareholder” means each of (a) Advance/Newhouse Programming Partnership, (b) the Guarantor or any of its subsidiaries and (c) any other “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) if 50% or more of the Voting Stock of such person is “beneficially owned” (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, by Advance/Newhouse Programming Partnership or the Guarantor or one of its subsidiaries or any combination thereof.

“Voting Stock” of any specified person as of any date means any and all shares or equity interests (however designated) of such person that are at the time entitled to vote generally in the election of the board of directors, managers or trustees of such person, as applicable.

Certain Covenants

The indenture does not contain any provisions that would limit our ability to incur indebtedness or that would afford holders of Notes protection in the event of a sudden and significant decline in the credit quality of the Guarantor or DCL or a takeover, recapitalization or highly leveraged or similar transaction involving the Guarantor or DCL.

Limitation on Liens

DCL will not, and will not permit any subsidiary to, create, incur, assume or permit to exist any lien on any property or asset, to secure any debt of DCL, any subsidiary or any other person, or permit any subsidiary to do so, without securing the Notes equally and ratably with such debt for so long as such debt will be so secured, subject to certain exceptions. The exceptions include:

40

Though Scripps and its subsidiaries are subsidiaries of the Guarantor but not subsidiaries of DCL, Scripps and its subsidiaries are treated as if they were subsidiaries of DCL for all purposes under the indenture, including for

41

purposes of the provisions described above in “—Limitation on Liens” and the provisions described below in “—Limitation on Sale and Leasebacks.” In addition, if any Subsidiary Guarantor is a subsidiary of the Guarantor but not a subsidiary of DCL, then, unless and until such Subsidiary Guarantor is released from such subsidiary guarantee of the Notes, such Subsidiary Guarantor and its subsidiaries shall be treated as if they were subsidiaries of DCL for all purposes under the indenture, including for purposes of the provisions described above in “—Limitation on Liens” and the provisions described below in “—Limitation on Sale and Leasebacks.”

Limitation on Sale and Leasebacks

DCL will not, and will not permit any subsidiary to, enter into any arrangement with any person pursuant to which DCL or any subsidiary leases any property that has been or is to be sold or transferred by DCL or the subsidiary to such person (a “sale and leaseback transaction”), except that a sale and leaseback transaction is permitted if DCL or such subsidiary would be entitled to secure the property to be leased (without equally and ratably securing the outstanding senior notes) in an amount equal to the present value of the lease payments with respect to the term of the lease remaining on the date as of which the amount is being determined, without regard to any renewal or extension in the lease, discounted at the rate of interest set forth or implicit in the terms of the lease, compounded semi-annually (such amount is referred to as the “attributable debt”).

In addition, permitted sale and leaseback transactions not subject to the limitation above and the provisions described in “—Limitation on Liens” above include:

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a sale and leaseback transaction regarding the real property in Silver Spring, Maryland and DCL’s headquarters building located on such property will not be subject to the limitations described above and the provisions described in “—Limitation on Liens.”

Consolidation, Merger and Sale of Assets

Neither DCL nor the Guarantor may consolidate or merge with or into, or sell, lease, convey, transfer or otherwise dispose of its property and assets substantially as an entirety to another entity unless:

In connection with any transaction that is covered by this covenant, we must deliver to the Trustee an officers’ certificate and an opinion of counsel each stating that the transaction complies with the terms of the indenture.

42

In the case of any such consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or other conveyance, but not a lease, in a transaction in which there is a successor entity to DCL or the Guarantor, the successor entity will succeed to, and be substituted for, DCL or the Guarantor, respectively, under the indenture and DCL or the Guarantor, respectively, will be released from its obligations under the Notes or the guarantee, as applicable, and the indenture.

Future Subsidiary Guarantors

The Guarantor will cause each wholly-owned Domestic Subsidiary that guarantees payment of any Debt of DCL or the Guarantor under DCL’s Revolving Credit Facility, to execute and deliver to the Trustee within 30 days a supplemental indenture or other instrument pursuant to which such wholly-owned Domestic Subsidiary will guarantee payment of the Notes, whereupon such Domestic Subsidiary will become a Subsidiary Guarantor for all purposes under the applicable supplemental indenture. See “—Guarantee—Guarantee by Subsidiaries of the Guarantor” above.

Events of Default

Any one of the following is an “Event of Default” with respect to each series of Notes:

If an Event of Default (other than the bankruptcy or insolvency provision) with respect to the Notes of a series occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of all of the outstanding Notes of such series may declare the principal of all the Notes of such series to be due and payable. When such

43

declaration is made, such principal will be immediately due and payable. The holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes of such series may rescind such declaration or acceleration and its consequences if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree and if all existing events of default have been cured or waived (other than nonpayment of principal or interest that has become due solely as a result of acceleration). If a bankruptcy or insolvency event occurs, the principal of and accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes will immediately become due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or the holders of the Notes.

Holders of the Notes of a series may not enforce the indenture or the Notes of such series, except as provided in the indenture. The Trustee may require indemnity satisfactory to it before it enforces the indenture or the Notes of such series. Subject to certain limitations, the holders of more than 50% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes of a series may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power of the Trustee. The Trustee may withhold from holders notice of any continuing default (except a default in the payment of principal or interest) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interests.

Amendment and Waiver

DCL and the Trustee may amend or supplement the indenture or the Notes, without the consent of any holder:

Other amendments and modifications of the indenture or the Notes may be made, and DCL’s compliance with any provision of the indenture with respect to any series of Notes may be waived, with the consent of the holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes of all series affected by the amendment or modification (voting as one class); provided, however, that each affected holder must consent to any modification, amendment or waiver that:

44

It shall not be necessary for the holders to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, supplement or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if the holders’ consent approves the substance thereof. After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this section of the indenture becomes effective, the Trustee must give to the holders affected thereby certain notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure by the Trustee to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture or waiver.

Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance

The indenture provides that DCL (a) may be discharged from its obligations in respect of the Notes (“defeasance and discharge”), or (b) may cease to comply with certain restrictive covenants (“covenant defeasance”), including those described under “—Consolidation, Merger and Sale of Assets,” when DCL has irrevocably deposited with the Trustee, in trust, (i) sufficient funds to pay the principal of and interest to stated maturity (or redemption) on, the Notes or (ii) such amount of direct obligations of, or obligations guaranteed by, the government which issued the currency in which the Notes of such series are denominated, as will, together with the predetermined and certain income to accrue thereon without consideration of any reinvestment, be sufficient to pay when due the principal of and interest to stated maturity (or redemption) on, the Notes. Such defeasance and discharge and covenant defeasance are conditioned upon, among other things, DCL’s delivery of an opinion of counsel that the holders of the Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for United States federal income tax purposes as a result of such defeasance, and will be subject to tax in the same manner as if no defeasance and discharge or covenant defeasance, as the case may be, had occurred. In the case of defeasance and discharge only, such opinion of counsel must be based on a ruling of the Internal Revenue Service or other change in applicable federal income tax law.

Governing Law

The indenture and the Notes are governed by, and shall be construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

The Trustee

The indenture provides that, except during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Trustee will perform only such duties as are specifically set forth in such indenture. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee will exercise such rights and powers vested in it under the indenture and use the same degree of care

and skill in its exercise as a prudent person would exercise under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs. The Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under the indenture at the request of any holder of Notes, unless such holder shall have offered to the Trustee reasonable security and indemnity against any loss, liability or expense.

The indenture and the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act, incorporated by reference therein, contain limitations on the rights of the Trustee thereunder should it become a creditor of the Guarantor, DCL or any of their subsidiaries, to obtain payment of claims in certain cases or to realize on certain property received by it in respect of any such claims, as security or otherwise. The Trustee is permitted to engage in other transactions, provided that if it acquires any conflicting interest (as defined in the Trust Indenture Act), it must eliminate such conflict or resign.

BOOK-ENTRY, FORM AND DELIVERY

The New Notes will be issued as fully-registered global senior notes which will be deposited with, or on behalf of, DTC and registered, at the request of DTC, in the name of Cede & Co. Beneficial interests in the global senior notes will be represented through book-entry accounts of financial institutions acting on behalf of beneficial owners as direct or indirect participants in DTC. Investors may elect to hold their interests in the global senior notes through either DTC (in the United States) or (in Europe) through Clearstream or through Euroclear. Investors may hold their interests in the global senior notes directly if they are participants of such systems, or indirectly through organizations that are participants in these systems. Interests held through Clearstream and Euroclear will be recorded on DTC’s books as being held by the U.S. depositary for each of Clearstream and Euroclear (the “U.S. Depositories”), which U.S. Depositories will, in turn, hold interests on behalf of their participants’ customers’ securities accounts. Beneficial interests in the global senior notes will be held in denominations of $2,000 and multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. Except as set forth below, the global senior notes may be transferred, in whole and not in part, only to another nominee of DTC or to a successor of DTC or its nominee.

The New Notes represented by a global senior note can be exchanged for definitive securities in registered form only if:

A global New Note that can be exchanged as described in the preceding sentence will be exchanged for definitive securities issued in authorized denominations in registered form for the same aggregate amount. The definitive securities will be registered in the names of the owners of the beneficial interests in the global New Note as directed by DTC.

We will make principal and interest payments on all New Notes represented by a global senior note to the paying agent which in turn will make payment to DTC or its nominee, as the case may be, as the sole registered owner and the sole holder of the New Notes represented by a global senior note for all purposes under the indenture. Accordingly, we, the Trustee and any paying agent will have no responsibility or liability for:

DTC has advised us that its current practice is to credit participants’ accounts on each payment date with payments in amounts proportionate to their respective beneficial interests in the principal amount of such global senior note as shown on DTC’s records, upon DTC’s receipt of funds and corresponding detail information. The underwriters will initially designate the accounts to be credited. Payments by participants to owners of beneficial interests in a global senior note will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices, as is the case with securities held for customer accounts registered in “street name,” and will be the sole responsibility of those participants. Book-entry notes may be more difficult to pledge because of the lack of a physical note.

Same Day Settlement and Payment

All payments of principal and interest on the New Notes will be made by Discovery in immediately available funds. The New Notes will trade in DTC’s Same-Day Funds Settlement System until maturity, and secondary market trading activity in the notes will therefore be required by DTC to settle in immediately available funds.

EXCHANGE OFFER; REGISTRATION RIGHTS

The following summary describes the material terms and provisions of the Registration Rights Agreement. This description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the terms and conditions of the Registration Rights Agreement. We urge you to read the Registration Rights Agreement in its entirety because it, not the following summary, will define your rights as a holder of Notes under that agreement. A copy of the Registration Rights Agreement was filed with the SEC and may also be obtained upon request at the address set forth under “Where You Can Find More Information.”

In connection with the issuance of the Old Notes, we entered into the Registration Rights Agreement pursuant to which we agreed, for the benefit of the holders of Old Notes, to use our commercially reasonable efforts to (1) cause to be filed with the SEC an exchange offer registration statement on an appropriate registration form with respect to an offer to exchange the Old Notes for New Notes having substantially identical terms as the Old Notes of the corresponding series and evidencing the same indebtedness as the Old Notes of the corresponding series (except that the New Notes will be registered under the Securities Act and will not be subject to restrictions on transfer or contain provisions relating to additional interest, will bear different CUSIP numbers than the Old Notes, will not entitle their holders to registration rights and will be subject to terms relating to book-entry procedures and administrative terms relating to transfers that differ from those of the Old Notes, as discussed below) and (2) cause such registration statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act.

When the SEC declares the registration statement effective, we will offer the New Notes in return for the Old Notes. The exchange offer will remain open for at least 20 business days (or shorter or longer if required by applicable law) after the date DCL mails notice of the exchange offer to the holders of Old Notes. For each Old Note surrendered to DCL under the exchange offer, the holder will receive a New Note of such series of equal principal amount. Interest on each New Note will accrue from the last interest payment date on which interest was paid on the Old Note surrendered in exchange therefor.

Each holder of Old Notes that participates in the exchange offer will be required to represent:

DCL will use its commercially reasonable efforts to complete the exchange offer promptly after the registration statement becomes effective. Under existing interpretations of the SEC contained in several no-action letters to third parties, the New Notes will generally be freely transferable after the exchange offer without further registration under the Securities Act, except that any broker-dealer that participates in the exchange must deliver a prospectus meeting the requirements of the Securities Act when it resells the New Notes.

Old Notes of any series not tendered in the exchange offer will bear interest at the rate set forth on the cover page of this prospectus and be subject to all the terms and conditions specified in the indenture, including transfer

restrictions, but will not retain any rights under the Registration Rights Agreement (including with respect to additional interest) after the consummation of the exchange offer.

In the event that we determine that a registered exchange offer is not available or may not be completed because it would violate any applicable law or applicable interpretations of the staff of the SEC, or, if for any reason, an exchange offer is not completed within 365 days after the Old Note Issuance Date, or any holder shall so request following the consummation of the registered exchange offer with respect to any Notes held by it that were not eligible for exchange, we and the Guarantor will use our commercially reasonable efforts to cause to become effective a shelf registration statement relating to resales of the Notes, other than Notes held by our affiliates and to keep that shelf registration statement effective until the earliest of (A) the time when any such Notes covered by the shelf registration statement can be sold pursuant to Rule 144 without any limitations by non-affiliates of ours under clause (d) of Rule 144, (B) the date on which all such Notes are disposed of in accordance with the shelf registration statement and (C) one year after its original effective date. We and the Guarantor will, in the event of such a shelf registration, provide to each holder of Notes copies of a prospectus, notify each holder of Notes when the shelf registration statement has become effective and take certain other actions to permit resales of the Notes. A holder that sells Notes under the shelf registration statement generally will be required to make certain representations to us (as described above), to be named as a selling security holder in the related prospectus and to deliver a prospectus to purchasers, will be subject to certain of the civil liability provisions under the Securities Act in connection with those sales and will be bound by the provisions of the registration rights agreement that are applicable to such a holder (including certain indemnification obligations). Holders of Old Notes will also be required to suspend their use of the prospectus included in the shelf registration statement under specified circumstances upon receipt of notice from us. Under applicable interpretations of the staff of the SEC, our affiliates will not be permitted to exchange their Old Notes for New Notes in the exchange offer.

A “registration default” will occur if the exchange offer is not for any reason completed within 365 days after the Old Notes Issuance Date (or, if required, the applicable shelf registration statement is not declared effective by the SEC on or prior to the date that is 365 days after the Old Notes Issuance Date), or if any registration statement required by the Registration Rights Agreement has been declared effective and thereafter either ceases to be effective or the related prospectus ceases to be usable at any time during the required effectiveness period (subject to certain exceptions), and such failure to remain effective or be usable exists for more than 90 days (whether or not consecutive) in any 12-month period. In that case, the annual interest rate borne by the Old Notes will be increased by 0.25% per annum (which rate will be increased by an additional 0.25% per annum for each subsequent 90-day period that such additional interest continues to accrue, provided that the rate at which such additional interest accrues may in no event exceed 0.50% per annum) until the exchange offer is completed, the shelf registration statement is declared effective or such registration statement and related prospectus become effective or usable again.

Any amounts of additional interest due will be payable in cash on the same original interest payment dates as interest on the Old Notes is payable.
