Q Okay.

A And he has been very vocal since about the kind of life he led there. But he is a different kind of person. I mean, he takes responsibility. Just because he worked 300 days a year, he doesn't blame the company, which I don't believe he should because he chose to take the paycheck, you know. And but he has been very vocal about getting hooked on the medicine, his inability to rehab until he finally had to do what he --

Q Okay. Our next set is on TNA's testing and drug policies.

A Okay.

Q Your drug policy is laid out in your talent policies and procedures handbook. We'll mark this Exhibit 2. [Carter Exhibit No. 2 was marked for identification.]

Q I'm providing you with a copy. When was this policy developed?

A WWE came out with a general wellness policy maybe March 1st, maybe the last day in February of 2006 if my memory is right. And Andy forwarded it to me within a day. And we reviewed it and we decided that even though we were just running the three shows a day and these guys didn't work for us full-time, actually worked for everybody else for a majority of the time, we needed to, you know, put together a formal document for them that laid out the dos and don'ts of what they had been told in bits and pieces. So we created this talent handbook of which a drug policy is included in that.

Q The next exhibit -- I'm going to present you with a March 12, 2006 e-mail from Kevin Day to you.

A Uh-huh. [Carter Exhibit No. 3 was marked for identification.]

Q This e-mail is from Kevin Day to you, Andy Barton -­A Jeff Jarrett.

Q Jeff Jarrett and Steve Campbell, responding to the February 28th e-mail from Andy Barton. This we will mark as exhibit 3?

A So then they came out with that policy on February 27th. I was close.

Q In discussing the WW wellness policy, Mr. Day states I can like the substance of it, provided we apply our own discipline levels to it, it seems like a good policy to it. It seems like a good policy. Are you familiar with the WW policy that Mr. Day liked?

A Correct.

Q The first draft of the policy presented to the committee -- presented to our committee -- among the documents presented to our committee, the first draft of the policy was created on March 3rd, three days after Mr. Barton's original e-mail. When you initially drafted your wellness -- your talent policy, did you use that WW wellness policy as a guide?

A I think they looked at several different organizations' drug testing policies and made the determination -- I think, there was conversations back and forth about. You know, with us only working with these guys 3 days a month, what we can and cannot request of them. And it was determined that we wanted to create a full policy but we did not list out all the specific drugs. It was more just prescription drugs. We did not list every prescription drug made and things such as that. But it does, I think -­you know, it covers the basics of it.
