Glenn SimpsonPage 190 MR. LEVY: Talk about what the "it" was when you say "it."

BY THE WITNESS:

A. The hearing was on June 9th, I guess we said, and that was the culmination of a long controversy over whether Browder was going to have to testify and whether, you know, we had to be disqualified and, you know, there was a whole series of media attacks on us during that period from Browder. Then nothing happened after that and that was, you know, sort of the peak of that. It was after that that a lot of the issues involving Russia and the campaign started to heat up.

Q. Was there any overlap between the employees from Fusion who were working on the Trump investigation and the Prevezon case?

A. I think the primary employees did not overlap, but I can't tell you that there was a Chinese wall of separation. Various people specialize in certain things and can contribute ad hoc to something.

Q. And you worked on both, correct?

A. Yes, I did.

Q. You previously mentioned that Fusion had hired subcontractors beyond Mr. Steele to work on 1-800-FOR-DEPO
