This is not true. Brian bought "a fancy yellow tennis racket", and "charged it to the company's expense account". This means that he did not pay for the item himself, and that Delavigne Corp. paid. Brian says "sometimes I play tennis with clients" to try to justify his mistake, but there is no indication that he does this too often.
This is a true statement. Donna says that her ex-boyfriend "needed some Delavigne colognes", and Brian tells her that this means she has been "sending out free samples without written authorization". "Authorization" shares a similar meaning with "permission". A "sample" is a small part of something that demonstrates the quality, style or nature of a product.
This statement is true. Brian accuses Donna of making "long-distance calls to (her) ex-boyfriend from the company phone". This means that she has been telephoning internationally. Donna defends herself by saying that the calls were "work-related".
