Explanation of Responses:
( 1 )Pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated July 31, 2017 (the "Merger Agreement"), by and among Discovery Communications, Inc. ("Discovery"), the Issuer and Skylight Merger Sub, Inc., the reporting person's shares were converted into the right to receive, at the election of the reporting person, (i) mixed consideration of $65.82 in cash and 1.0584 shares of Discovery Series C common stock for each share, (ii) $90.00 in cash for each share or (iii) 3.9392 shares of Discovery Series C common stock for each share, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement including, in the case of an election to receive all cash or all stock, the proration procedures in the event that cash or stock is oversubscribed.
( 2 )These shares were owned directly by the John P. Scripps 2013 Revocable Trust dated December 20, 2013, of which John P. Scripps is the beneficiary and trustee.

Remarks:
The reporting person had been deemed to have shared voting power with respect to more than 10% of the Class A Common Shares of the Issuer (due solely to the convertibility of Common Voting Shares of the Company into Class A Common Shares on a share-for-share basis) due to the voting provisions of the Amended and Restated Scripps Family Agreement dated May 19, 2015, as amended on March 29, 2017, to which the reporting person is a party. The reporting person filed a Schedule 13D with the Commission on January 24, 2013, as last amended on March 7, 2018.

Reminder: Report on a separate line for each class of securities beneficially owned directly or indirectly.
