World Wrestling Entertainment, Inc.
2006 Substance Abuse and Drug Testing Policy
Dated February 27, 2006 ("Policy")
Section 3B of the Policy is hereby amended to add the following to the list of Prohibited Drugs:
"(10) Anti-Estrogens: The non-medical use of drugs belonging to this class, including, but not limited to, anastrozole, letrozole, aminooglutethimide exemestane, formestane, testolactone, raloxifene, tamoxifen, toremifene, clomiphene, cyclofenil and fulvestrant, are prohibited."
Section 7A(2) of the Policy is hereby deleted to reflect that testing for marijuana will no longer be only on the basis of reasonable cause and that alcohol will remain subject to testing on the basis of reasonable cause only. Section 7A(2) is therefore replaced in its entirety as follows:
"(2) Tests for violation of this Policy for alcohol shall be on the basis of reasonable cause only."
The first sentence of Section 7(B) of the Policy is hereby deleted. The first sentence of Section 7(B) will now read as follows:
"B. Random Testing
With respect to all substances and drugs prohibited by this Policy except alcohol, which will be tested only if reasonable cause exists to do so, WWE Talent will be subject to unannounced testing at any time as determined by the PA."
With respect to all substances and drugs prohibited by this Policy except alcohol, which will be tested only if reasonable cause exists to do so, WWE Talent will be subject to unannounced testing at any time as determined by the PA."
Section 14 of the Policy is hereby deleted and replaced in its entirety as follows:
"14. PENALTIES
A. FOR POSITIVE DRUG TESTS OTHER THAN MARIJUANA
First Offense. In the event of an initial positive result for drugs prohibited by this Policy other than marijuana, the Talent shall be fined an amount equal to 30 days’ pay deducted from your downside guarantee on a weekly basis. The Company may, at its discretion, schedule the Talent to work selected televised events without pay, pay-per-views with pay, and non-televised live events with a $200 stipend per event during the 30 day suspension period.
Second Offense. In the event of a second positive result for drugs prohibited by this Policy other than marijuana, the Talent shall be fined an amount equal to 60 days’ pay deducted from your downside guarantee on a weekly basis. The Company may, at its discretion, schedule the Talent to work selected televised events without pay, pay-per-views with pay and non-televised live events with a $200 stipend per event during the 60 day suspension period. Alternatively, in cases where the Talent appears to be in need of a drug rehabilitation program, the Talent shall not be assigned to work until the individual has successfully completed the drug rehabilitation program. However, regardless of the length of the program, the Talent’s fine shall be limited to 60 days’ pay.
Third Offense. In the event of a third positive result for drugs prohibited by this Policy other than marijuana, the Talent’s contract with WWE will be terminated.
B. FOR POSITIVE MARIJUANA DRUG TESTS
